Direction: In these following question, the symbols @, #,* and % are used with the different meaning as follow:
'A @ B' means 'A is not smallest than B'
'A # B' means 'A is neither smallest than nor equal to B.
'A S B' means 'A is neither than nor smallest than B.
'A * B' means "A is not greater than B'.
'A % B' means 'A is neither greater than or equal to B'
In 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.

  1. Statements:
    N @ W, W # H
    Conclusions:
    I. H % N II. T # W
    1. if only conclusion I is true
    2. if only conclusion II is true
    3. if either conclusion I or conclusion II is true
    4. if neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is true
    5. if both conclusion I and II are true
Correct Option: A

N ≤ W ...(i) W = H ...(ii) H < T ...(iii)
From (i) and (ii) W = N ≥ W > H or N > H ...(iv)
Hence H < N and I follows.
But T and W can't be compared from (ii) and (iii) Hence II does not follow.
