(C) either 1st or 2nd
(D) neither 1st nor 2nd
(E) both 1st and 2nd

  1. Statements: P > A ≤ L, M ≤ A, I ≤ B = M
    Conclusions:
    I. L > I
    II. L = I
    (C) either 1st or 2nd
    Explanation:

    L ≥ A ≥ M ≥ I
    So L ≥ I
    So either or between two conclusions

  2. Statements: B < W ≤ E, L > E < K, W ≥ O
    Conclusions:
    I. K ≥ O
    II. L > O
    (B) only 2nd follows
    Explanation:

    K > E ≥ W ≥ O, so K > O
    L > E ≥ W ≥ O so L > O

  3. Statements: Q ≥ E > K, E > F < A, P > Q
    Conclusions:
    I. Q > F
    II. P > A
    (A) only 1st follows
    Explanation:

    Q ≥ E > F, so Q > F
    P > Q ≥ E > F < A, so relation cant be determined between P and A

  4. Statements: A ≥ B ≥ J, J < P, P > E
    Conclusions:
    I. E > B
    II. A > P
    (D) neither 1st nor 2nd
    Explanation:

    E < P > J ≤ B, so relation cant be determined between E and B
    A ≥ J < P, so relation cant be determined between A and P

  5. Statements: E > M ≥ Z, O = M, T > E
    Conclusions:
    I. T > O
    II. Z < T
    (E) both 1st and 2nd
    Explanation:

    T > E > M = O, so T > O
    Z < E < T, so Z < T
