Directions: (3-5): In the following questions, the symbols @, $, #, © and % are used with the following meaning as illustrated below.
‘P $ Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’.
‘P © Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor equal to Q’.
‘P # Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q’.
‘P % Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q’.
‘P @ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q’.
Now, in each of the following questions, assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the four conclusions I, II, III and IV given below them is/are definitely true and give your answer accordingly.

P and G were equally expensive. B was the least expensive brand among them.C was less expensive than P.G was less expensive than A.The expensiveness of A was more than that of P.
Q6. If the above statements are true, which of the following must also be true?
(a) A was the most expensive among them
(b) C was more expensive than A
(c) G was somewhere in the middle when they were set in descending order in terms of expensiveness.
(d) C was the most expensive among them
(e) None of the above
Q7. If a sixth brand F is tested and found to be more expensive that A, then which of the following must be true if the findings of the study are correct?
