Direction(Q1-5): In the following questions, the symbols %, #, @, & and $ are used with the following meaning as illustrated below:

• ‘P % Q’ means ‘P is not greater than Q’. 
• ‘P $ Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor equal to Q’. 
• ‘P & Q’ means ‘P is neither greater than nor smaller than Q’ 
• ‘P < Q’ means ‘P is neither smaller than nor equal to Q’ 
• ‘P > Q’ means ‘P is not smaller than Q’
