 II. R ≥ Z

(A) Both conclusions I and II are true

(B) Only conclusion II is true

(C) Only conclusion I is true

(D) Neither conclusion I nor II is true

Correct Answer : D

Q :  

In this question, two statements I and II have been given. These statements may be independent causes or effects of independent causes or a common cause. One of the statements may be the effect of the other statement. Read both statements and select the correct answer.

Statements:
 (I) A is fourth from the left end; M is second to the right of A; and R is second from the left end.
 (II) M is fourth from the right end; only two people Stand between M and B.

(A) Data in either statement I alone or statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question

(B) Data in statements I and II together is sufficient to answer the question

(C) Data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question while data in statement II is not

(D) Data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question while data in statement I is not

Correct Answer : B

Q :
