In a code, 'A © B' means A is not greater than B (A ≤ B), 'A % B' means A is not less than B (A ≥ B), and 'A * B' means A is neither greater nor smaller than B (A = B). Given the statements 'P % Q' and 'Q © R', which conclusion is definitely true?

Question

Accepted Answer

Cannot be determined. P % Q gives P ≥ Q and Q © R gives Q ≤ R. Both P and R are on the larger side of Q, so their relationship cannot be fixed.
