Meaning

Q

 

Given statement: G % A & D, Q # R $ G, F $ A

After converting: G ≥ A > D, Q = R < G, F < A

On combining: Q = R < G ≥ A > D; F < A

 I) F % D ⇒ F ≥ D → False (A > D; F < A; the clear relation between F and D cannot be determined.)

II) D # A ⇒ D = A → False (A > D)

III) Q $ G ⇒ Q < G → True (Q = R < G)

IV) F % Q ⇒ F ≥ Q → False (Q = R < G ≥ A; F < A

→ the clear relation between F and Q cannot be determined.)

Hence, only III follows.
