@

*

Meaning

=

to B

Given Statement: S @ T $ Q + R; Q * P @ W

On converting: S < T > Q ≥ R; Q = P < W

On combining: S < T > Q = P ≥ R, S < T > Q = P < W, R ≤ Q = P < W
                                       
Conclusions:

I. R # W → R ≤ W → False (as R ≤ Q = P < W, therefore R < W)

II. W $ R → W > R → True (as R ≤ Q = P < W, therefore R < W).

Hence, only conclusions II follows.
