If $(A + B) = (C + D)$ and $(A + D) > (B + C)$ , then which of the following is definitely wrong?

A > B

C > A

C > D

B > D

✅ Correct Option: 4

From $A + B = C + D$ , we get $A - C = D - B$ .

Also, $A + D > B + C$ gives $A - C > B - D$ . Substituting $A - C = D - B$ gives $D - B > B - D$ , so $D > B$ . Therefore $B > D$ is definitely false.

Further, since $A - C = D - B > 0$ , we also get $A > C$ , making $C > A$ false as well. Thus both Options 2 and 4 are mathematically impossible, making the question ambiguous. The official NTA answer key marks Option 4. If we've missed anything, please report and let us know.
