In a coded inequality, 'A & B' means A > B, 'A % B' means A = B, and 'A # B' means A ≤ B. For the statement 'P & Q % R # S', which conclusion is definitely TRUE?

Competition practiceInequalities
  • AS > Q
  • BP < S
  • CP > R
  • DR > P

Step-by-Step Solution

The statement means P > Q = R ≤ S. Since P > Q and Q = R, we get P > R (definitely true). P vs S is undetermined; S ≥ Q allows S = Q so 'S > Q' is not certain; R > P is false.
Answer: C) P > R
