TOPIC NAME :
INEQUALITY
Ceedmy.com

As a topic inequality is all about comparison between two

or more than two variables.
In this topic we have to compare between variables and
we have to conclude them. For comparison basically we
use some symbols.

SOME BASIC SYMBOLS OF INEQUALITY

> Greater A>B > A is greater
than B

< Less A< B > A is less than B

= Equal A=B > A is equal to B

Note : >,< and = this inequality symbols are difinite
symbols .

SOME OTHER IMPORTANT SYMBOLS

≥ either greater than or equal to A≥B
mean
A is greater than or equal to B.
≤ either less than or equal to A ≤ B mean
A is less than or equal to B.
Note :
≥ , ≤ these symbols are possible symbols .

INDIRECT REPRESENTATION SYMBOLS

( ≥ ) ,A ≥ B means A>B
( ≤ ), A ≤ B means A<B
( < ), A < B means A ≤B
( > ), A > B means A≥B
( = ), A = B means A =B

Types of Questions asked in various

exam
Types 2. Conditional
Types 1. Simple Inequality (Statement Condition base )
(Statement and conclusion)

Types 3.Coded Inequality

(Coded Statement and Coded conclusion base)
Ceedmy.com
Types 1. Simple Inequality
(Statement and conclusion)
In such questions one more than one statements will
be given two or more than two conclusions will be
given according to statement you have to find which
of these conclusion is right (Follow).

Basic of Inequality:
> and < are single (definite) inequality symbols.
≥ and ≤ are double (possible) inequality symbols.
= is neither single nor double inequality symbols
presence of = in statement doesn’t make any
difference.
= Concept is totally different so we have to study
separately.

How to conclude :-
Statement No possibility Conclusion
A>B>C No possibility of statement A>C
A≥B>C A> B >C A>C From both or possibility are
A= B >C A >C Getting A > C so conclusion
will be A > C

A> B≥ C A> B >C A>C From both or possibilities

We are getting or A > C so conclusion will be
A> B =C A >C A>C
 Ceedmy.com

Statement No possibility Conclusion

A ≥ B≥ C A> B >C A>C From first three possibilities
Or we are getting A > C but
A= B >C A>C From last one we are getting
Or A = C.
A> B = C A> C So combination of these two
Or A ≥ C will be conclusion .
A= B = C A =C

How to conclude :-
Step -1 . Check symbols are in same order or not .
Step -2 . If symbols are in same order then Check there is only
single inequality symbols between those two elements we are
comparing .
(A) 1. If yes ,then conclusion will have single inequality symbols
between them in order to make conclusion definitely true
(Follow).
2. If No, then three will have double inequality symbols between
them in order to make conclusion definitely true (Follow).

3. If neither single nor double is present between

them and only “equal to” is present then the
conclusion also must have “=” sing to make it
definitely true .
(B). If symbols are not in same order in the statement
either which are being compared will always give “No
relation” because of which only conclusion related
them will give can’t say (does not follow) as answer .

TYPE 1.
Ex.1-5 . Statement.
P ≥ Q ≥ R = S ≥ T > U ≥ V = W < X
Ex.1. Conclusion :
1. P ≥ U
2. P >U

Ex.2. Conclusion :
1. T ≤ Q
2. T < Q

Ex.3. Conclusion :
1. P > T
2. P = T

Ex.4. Conclusion :
1.T > X
2.T > W

Ex.5. Conclusion :
1. U > X
2. U ≤ X

TYPE 2. ≥
What will com in the place of question mark (?) in the
given statement if P ≥ U and R < V is definitely true.
P ≥ Q ≥ R = S ? T ≥ U > V
In these kind of question we have to consider
conditions given in the statement as conclusion and in
order make them correct one has to fill the blank with
inequality symbols .
1. < or ≤ or = at question mark place 1.
2. < or ≤ or = at question mark place ?.

TYPE 3.
Ex. 6 -8. In this type question all symbols of
inequality coded in symbol form.
P@Q means, ‘P is less then or equal to Q’
P$Q means, ‘P is greater or equal to Q’
P*Q means, ‘P is greater than Q’
P©Q means, ‘P is equal to Q’
P#Q means, ‘P is less then Q’
