Now, im each of the following questions assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the two conclusions I and II given below them is/are definitely true? Give answer
Statements: J * D, Q # D, Q @ M Conclusions: I. Q & J II. Q $ J
Answer & ExplanationOption: [C]
J ≤ D ........ (i); Q ≥ D ..... (ii); Q < M ....... (iii)
