According to me the answer should be false but not uncertain because The temperature on Monday was lower than on Tuesday. Which means Tuesday was having high temperature according to the statement 1.
The temperature on Wednesday was lower than on Tuesday. In the statement 2 the temperature of Tuesday is again higher than Wednesday.
The temperature on Monday was higher than on Wednesday the third statement is false now because when compared to the two statements Tuesday should have the high temperature so the answer might be false rather than uncertain can any one clear it if I was wrong.
The temperature on Wednesday was lower than on Tuesday. In the statement 2 the temperature of Tuesday is again higher than Wednesday.
The temperature on Monday was higher than on Wednesday the third statement is false now because when compared to the two statements Tuesday should have the high temperature so the answer might be false rather than uncertain can any one clear it if I was wrong.
