Introduction to Inequality Based Questions<\/strong><\/h3>\nIn these questions, you will be provided with a statement consisting of a group of elements. These elements will be having a certain coded relationship among them which is denoted by different inequality symbols like >, <, = etc.<\/p>\n
You should know the meaning of different symbols which will help you in finding the relationship between the different elements of a statement.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\nTypes of Questions asked<\/strong><\/h3>\nInequality based questions are provided in two types:<\/p>\n
Direct Inequality in which direct symbols will be given in the statement.<\/p>\n
Coded Inequality in which coded symbols (e.g. @, %, $, etc.) will be given and what they signify will be provided separately (e.g. @ means >, % means <, etc.)<\/p>\n
Both kinds of questions can be solved easily once you have gone through the above statements and their conclusions.<\/p>\n

Priority 1: < or >, Priority 2: \u2265 or \u2264 and Priority 3: =.<\/p>\n
Trick 1<\/strong>: Whenever in a statement you get both the priority 1 in opposite order (A>B<C) there will be a conflict and thus no conclusion.<\/p>\nIf A > B < C, then A < C = False & C > A = False.<\/p>\n
But, If A > B >C then A > C = True, C < A = True<\/p>\n
Essentially, whenever these two sign come in opposite directions, the answer will be false.<\/p>\n
Trick 2<\/strong>: Whenever in a statement you get both the priority 2 in opposite order (A\u2265 B \u2264C) there will be a conflict and thus no conclusion.<\/p>\nIf A \u2265 B \u2264 C, then A \u2264 C = False & C\u00a0\u00a0 \u2265 A = False.<\/p>\n
But, If A \u2265 B \u2265 C, then A \u2265 C = True, C \u2264 A = True.<\/p>\n
Trick 3<\/strong>: When it occurs to you that the statement of order is opposite just change the sign in the alternate direction<\/p>\n
