    F ≥ N ...(i) N < D ...(ii) D ≤ R ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) F and can't be compared.
    Hence I does not follow.
    From (ii) and (iii) N < D ≤ R or R > N ...(iv)
    Hence II follows. From (i) and (iv) R and F can't be compared. Hence III does not follow.

    Correct Option: C

    F ≥ N ...(i) N < D ...(ii) D ≤ R ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) F and can't be compared.
    Hence I does not follow.
    From (ii) and (iii) N < D ≤ R or R > N ...(iv)
    Hence II follows. From (i) and (iv) R and F can't be compared. Hence III does not follow.


Direction: In the following information question, the symbol S, %, @, © and are used with the following meaning as illustrated below:
'P % Q' means 'P is smallest than Q'.
'P % Q' means 'P is not greater Q'.
'P * Q' means 'P is neither greater than nor equal to Q'.
'P © Q' means 'P is neither smallest than nor equal to Q'.
'P @ Q' means 'P is neither greater than nor smallest than Q'.

    F ≤ B ...(i) B = H ...(ii) H ≥ K ... (iii)
    From (i) B F. Hence I follows.
    From (ii) and (iii) B = H ≥ K or B ≥ K or K ≤ B can't be compared. Hence II does not follow.

    Correct Option: D

    F ≤ B ...(i) B = H ...(ii) H ≥ K ... (iii)
    From (i) B F. Hence I follows.
    From (ii) and (iii) B = H ≥ K or B ≥ K or K ≤ B can't be compared. Hence II does not follow.

    M ≥ D ...(i) D< K ...(ii) K ≤ N ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) K and M can't be compared.
    Hence I does not follow.
    From (ii) and (iii) D < K ≤ N or N > D.
    Hence II follows. From (i) and II, M and N can't be compared. Hence III does not follow.

    Correct Option: B

    M ≥ D ...(i) D< K ...(ii) K ≤ N ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) K and M can't be compared.
    Hence I does not follow.
    From (ii) and (iii) D < K ≤ N or N > D.
    Hence II follows. From (i) and II, M and N can't be compared. Hence III does not follow.


Direction: In the following information question, the symbol #, %, @, S and © are used with the following meaning as illustrated below:
'P # Q' means 'P is smallest than Q'.
'P % Q' means 'P is not greater Q'.
'P @ Q' means 'P is neither smallest than nor equal to Q'.
'P S Q' means 'P is neither greater than nor equal to Q'.
'P © Q' means 'P is neither smallest than greater nor greater than Q'.
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.

    R ≤ N ...(i) N ≥ F ...(ii) F > B ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) F and R can't be compared. Hence I does not follow.
    Combing (ii) and (iii) we get N ≥ F > B or N > B or B < N. Hence II follows.

    Correct Option: B

    R ≤ N ...(i) N ≥ F ...(ii) F > B ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) F and R can't be compared. Hence I does not follow.
    Combing (ii) and (iii) we get N ≥ F > B or N > B or B < N. Hence II follows.

    H = W ...(i) W ≤ R ...(ii) R > F ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) H = W ≤ R or R ≥ H, Hence either I (R = H) or II (R > H) follows.

    Correct Option: C

    H = W ...(i) W ≤ R ...(ii) R > F ...(iii)
    From (i) and (ii) H = W ≤ R or R ≥ H, Hence either I (R = H) or II (R > H) follows.
