a) if only conclusion I is true.

b) if only conclusion II is true.

c) if either conclusion I or II is true.

d) if neither conclusion I nor II is true.

e) if both conclusions I and II are true.

D.6-10) In the following questions, the symbols %, $, @, &, # are used with the following meanings as illustrated below:

‘P % Q’ means ‘P is greater than Q’

‘P $ Q’ means ‘P is greater than or equal to Q’

‘P @ Q’ means ‘P is smaller than Q’

‘P & Q’ means ‘P is less than or equal to Q’

‘P # Q’ means ‘P is neither less than nor greater than Q’

Now, in each of the following questions, assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the three conclusions I, II and III given below them is / are definitely true.
