Inequalities: SSC CGL Reasoning
Inequalities has 12 questions in the SSC CGL Tier I bank, every one from the 2025 shifts: 6 EASY and 6 MODERATE.Each gives a chain of letters joined by greater than, less than and equal signs, sometimes written in code, and asks which conclusions are definitely true. One rule answers them all: two letters are related only if every sign between them points the same way, and the result is strict if any sign on the way is strict. The only other idea is the either-or pair.
The handout has every subtopic, worked example, formula and trap with answers shown.
