Question and options

Consider the following statements:
S1: A≥BA \ge B;
S2: C>DC > D;
S3: A≥EA \ge E;
S4: B≥CB \ge C;
S5: F=BF = B
Which of the following conclusions is/are true?
Conclusions:
Q1: C>EC > E
Q2: E>BE > B
Q3: F>DF > D
Q4: A>DA > D
  1. Only Q3
  2. Q2 and Q3
  3. Q3 and Q4
  4. Q1, Q3 and Q4

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - Q3 and Q4
From F=B≥C>DF = B \ge C \gt D: F>DF \gt D (Q3 true). A≥B≥C>DA \ge B \ge C \gt D gives A>DA \gt D (Q4 true). EE is related only through A≥EA \ge E, so C>EC \gt E and E>BE \gt B cannot be determined. Hence Q3 and Q4.
