    Directions: Each question consists of five statements followed by five conclusions. Consider the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions definitely docs not logically follow from the given statements using all statements together and mark that conclusion as your answer.
    Statements:     All pens are pencils. All pencils are sketches. No sketch is an eraser. All erasers are markers. No marker is a page. Conclusions:   

    A)  No page is an eraser.

    B)  Some pens are sketches.

    C)              Some markers are not pencils.            

    D)              No page is a sketch.            

    E)  All pencils can be erasers.

    Correct Answer: E

    Solution :

    All erasers are markers (A) + No marker is a page = A + E = E =) No eraser is a page (E) \[\to \]conversion \[\to \] No page is an eraser (E). Hence (a) follows. All pens are pencils (A) + All pencils are sketches (A) = A + A = A = All pens are sketches (A) \[\to \]implication \[\to \]Some pens are sketches (I). Hence (b) follows. Again, from statement (second + third + fourth) conclusion (c) follows. From (+ second + third) conclusion 5) does not follow. But conclusion 4) may follow from (third + fourth + fifth) statement.
