B.If only conclusion II is true
C.If either conclusion I or conclusion II is true
D.If neither conclusion I nor conclusion II is true
Answer & Explanation
Answer: Option C 
(i) A # B ⇒ A ≥ B
(ii) A % B ⇒ A ≤ B
(iii)A @ B ⇒ A > B
(iv) A $ B ⇒ A < B
(v) A & B ⇒ A = B
H & W ⇒ H = w
W % R ⇒ W ≤ R
R @ F ⇒ R < F
∴ H = W ≤ R > F
Conclusions
I. R & H ⇒ R = H : Not True
II. R @ H ⇒ R > H : Not True
R is either greater than or equal to H.
