Question

Directions: Which of the following symbols should be placed in the blank spaces respectively (in the same order from left to right) in order to complete the given expression in such a manner that “A ≥ Y” definitely holds True?

P _ A _ R _ T _ Y

1. > , > , <, ≥ 
2. = , = , <, ≥ 
3. <, ≥ , = , ≥ 
4. ≥ , <, ≤ , = 
5. ≤ , > , ≥ , ≤ 

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : <, ≥ , = , ≥ 

Let us check each option:

1) P > A > R < T ≥ Y → False (as A > R < T ≥ Y → thus clear relation between A and Y cannot be determined)

2) P = A = R < T ≥ Y → False (as A = R < T ≥ Y → thus clear relation between A and Y cannot be determined)

3) P < A ≥ R = T ≥ Y → True (as A ≥ R = T ≥ Y → A ≥ Y)

4) P ≥ A < R ≤ T = Y → False ( as A < R ≤ T = Y → A < Y)

5) P ≤ A > R ≥ T ≤ Y → False (as A > R ≥ T ≤ Y → thus clear relation between A and Y cannot be determined)

Hence, correct sequence of symbols to satisfy the given statement is <, ≥ , = , ≥
