Dear Aspirants,
Today we will solve some questions in the 2nd part of Inequality reasoning. Inequality topic is important in Banking and other exams. In the previous article on this topic, we learned how to solve inequality que. quickly. If you want to know the trick you can read Reasoning Inequality Tricks. In this article, we solve some advanced-level inequality questions and will strengthen this topic.
Que 1. Study the following question carefully and choose the right answer.
Statement: P > Q ≥ Z ≥ V, N < V = S > T
Conclusions: 1. T<Q
2. S≥P
- If only conclusion 1 follows.
- If only conclusion 2 follows.
- If either conclusion 1 or conclusion 2 follows.
- If neither conclusion 1 nor conclusion 2 follows.
- If both conclusions 1 and 2 follow.
- First, check Conclusion 1. T < Q
Q to T enter in all cases but S > T (S is greater than T not equal to greater than ≥) so that's why Q > T conclusion 1 is true.Now check Conclusion 2. S < P
Que 2. Study the following question carefully andchoose the right answer.Statement: 2 < 6 ≤ 7 < 8; 9 > 8 = 4 ≤ 5Conclusions: I) 4 ≥ 7
II) 9 > 2
III) 6 < 5
Options:A. Only conclusion I is trueB. Only conclusion II is trueC. Both conclusions I and II are true
D. Both conclusions II and III are true
E. Only conclusion III is true
Que 3. In which of the following expressions does the expression “2 ≥ 1” and “5 ≤ 9” definitely hold true?
A. 5 = 4 ≤ 1 = 2 ≥ 7 ≥ 9
B. 9 = 4 ≤ 5 = 2 > 7 ≥ 1
C. 9 = 4 ≤ 2 = 7 > 5 ≥ 1
D. 5 = 4 ≤ 9 = 2 ≥ 7 ≥ 1
E. None of the above
Solution:we have to check both expression soenter through 2 ===> > 1 with ≥ symbol and 9 ===> ≥ 5
First, check Option A in 1 = 2 & 9 can not enter because it is on the closed side of arrow. So option A is false.
Option B 2 > 7 ≥ 1 so it is false 2 ≥ 1 × for correcting this statement must be 2 ≥ 7 ≥ 1 also, 9 = 4 ≤ 5 does not give the result of 9 ≥ 5 So option B is false.
From Option C statement 2 = 7 > 5 ≥ 1 and 9 = 4 ≤ 2 = 7 > 5 also we can clearly see that we can not reach the result.
From Option D statement 2 ≥ 7 ≥ 1 we can reach the result 2 ===> ≥ 1 and from that statement,
5 = 4 ≤ 9
5 = 4 ≤ <==== 9
9 ===> ≥ 5 is true. So correct Answer is Option D.
Que 4. Statements:
M < D > V ≤ C; K ≥ O = T ≤ P; G ≥ D < O ≥ B
Conclusion:
I) P > V
II) G ≥ M
Sol: Now we solve it quickly by observing. Like, in Conclusion I) we have to enter from P in the statement we can enter from P to T, T to O, O to D then D to V so conclusion 1 is true.in Conclusion II) we see in statement G to D and then D to M but in D to M symbol is < but for true conclusion, symbol must be ≤ so this is false.Answer: I) P > V ✓ II) G ≥ M ×
Que 5. Statements:
P ≤ Z < E < V; Y ≤ S = B < I; P ≥ I ≤ M
Conclusion:I) V > B
II) Y < M
Sol: For conclusion I) in given statements we can enter from V to E then E to Z, Z to P, P to I then I to B conclusion I) is true.
and for conclusion II) through statements we have to go through M to I then I to B then B to S and S to Y. Conclusion II) is true.
Answer: I)V > B ✓
II) Y < M ✓
Que 6. Statements:
X < N ≥ I = A; S ≥ M ≤ P = A
Conclusion:
I) N > M
II) M = N
Sol: In this, we have to go through N to M so N to I, I = A then A = P, P to M but in this between directions are = and ≥ so the final conclusion of this statement is like below
=> N ≥ I = A = P ≥ M
=> N ≥ M
in this case, Answer: Either conclusion I or Conclusion II follows.
So like the above questions, you can solve them in mind and directly tick the correct answer. After Practising more on this topic you can increase the speed of solving. In the next article in part 3 of this topic, we discuss and see the coded inequality problems.
I hope you like this article, share this article and if you have any doubt feel free to comment.

9 ===> ≥ 5 is true. So correct Answer is Option D.
M < D > V ≤ C; K ≥ O = T ≤ P; G ≥ D < O ≥ B
I) P > V
II) G ≥ M
Sol: Now we solve it quickly by observing. Like, in Conclusion I) we have to enter from P in the statement we can enter from P to T, T to O, O to D then D to V so conclusion 1 is true.
P ≤ Z < E < V; Y ≤ S = B < I; P ≥ I ≤ M
I) V > B
II) Y < M
Sol: For conclusion I) in given statements we can enter from V to E then E to Z, Z to P, P to I then I to B conclusion I) is true.
and for conclusion II) through statements we have to go through M to I then I to B then B to S and S to Y. Conclusion II) is true.
Answer: I)V > B ✓
II) Y < M ✓
Que 6. Statements:
X < N ≥ I = A; S ≥ M ≤ P = A
Conclusion:
I) N > M
II) M = N
Sol: In this, we have to go through N to M so N to I, I = A then A = P, P to M but in this between directions are = and ≥ so the final conclusion of this statement is like below
=> N ≥ I = A = P ≥ M
=> N ≥ M
in this case, Answer: Either conclusion I or Conclusion II follows.
