Q45 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (24 Jan Shift 2) · Mathematics

Let p and q be two statements. Then ~(p∧(p→~q) is equivalent to

  • A
    p∨(p∧(~q))
  • B
    p∨((~p)∧q)
  • Correct answer
    C
    ~p∨q
  • D
    p∨(p∧q)

Solution

Given,

~(p∧(p→~q)

≡~p∨~(~p∨~q) as A→B≡~A∨B

≡~p∨(p∧q) as ~A∨B≡~A∧~B

≡(~p∨p)∧(~p∨q)

≡t∧(~p∨q)

≡~p∨q

≡(~p)∨q

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
