Solution
1.M = A ≤ N ≤ P = R ≤ X
M = A = N = P = R = X
or, M = A < N < P = R < X
Conclusions:
I. M = X : Not true.
II. X > M : Not true.

2.V < I = C ≥ T,
R ≥ I
V < I ≤ R
R ≥ I = C ≥ T
Conclusions:
I. R > V : True.
II. T ≤ R : True.

3.D > E ≥ C = M > B < R = G
Conclusions:
I. D > B : True.
II. G > E : Not true.

4.C = O ≤ R < P > T
Conclusions:
I. C < T : Not true.
II. P > C : True.

5.W < A ≥ T = E ≤ R < D
Conclusions:
I. R > W : Not true.
II. A > D : Not true.
