(3) Travelled to Chennai by boat
(4) Travelled to Hyderabad by bus
(5) None of these
Solution (1 – 5)
1. (1)
M < T> K ≥ D
i. T > D √
ii. D > M X
2. (1)
F = B < N > H
i. N > F √
ii. H > F X
3. (3)
R ≤ M = K ≥ J
i. J > M X
ii. J = M X
but they are complementary pairs so either I or II follow
4. (1)
B > N ≤ R = K
i. K ≥ N √
ii. B > K X
5. (4)
J ≥ K > N ≤ D
i. J < N X
ii. D < K X
Solution (6 −10)
P Q R S T
Transport Bus Aeroplane Car Boat Train
Place Delhi Kolkata Mangalore Chennai Hyderabad
6. (2)
7. (4)
8. (2)
