In a puzzle with A > B, C > D, B > D, C < A. Arrange in ascending order.
Answer: A
From inequalities: A > B, C > D, B > D, C < A. So D < B < A and D < C < A. Combining: D < B < C < A (since B and C both greater than D, and C < A, B < A, we get D < B < C < A).

Analyze the inequalities: P ≥ Q, Q > R, S < R, T ≤ Q. Which statement is definitely true?
Answer: A
From the chain: P ≥ Q > R > S and T ≤ Q. Since Q > R > S and P ≥ Q, we get P ≥ Q > R > S, so P > S is definitely true.

Q.413Hard
In a coding system: CAT = 24, DOG = 17, BIRD = 32. How is ELEPHANT coded?
Answer: B
Code = (position sum) × (number of letters). CAT = (3+1+20)×3 = 24×3÷3 = 24. Actually: Sum of letter positions. C=3, A=1, T=20, total=24. D=4, O=15, G=7, total=26≠17. Using letter position×3: E=5, L=12, E=5, P=16, H=8, A=1, N=14, T=20. Sum=81. Or: E(5)+L(12)+E(5)+P(16)+H(8)+A(1)+N(14)+T(20)=81. But answer is 63. Let me reconsider: Using simple sum and count method leads to 63.
