| Direction: In each question below are given two/three statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to take 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 logically follows from the given statements, disregarding commonly known facts. Give answer |
| Statements: All bottles are cups. |
| No cup is a desk. |
| All desks are stickers. |
| Conclusions: I. No sticker is a bottle. |
| II. All cups being stickers is a possibility. |
A) if only conclusion I follows.
B) if only conclusion II follows.
C) if either conclusion I or II follows.
D) if neither conclusion I nor II follows.
E) if both conclusions I and II follow.
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
All bottles are cups + No cup is a desk = A +E = E = No bottle is a desk. Now, No bottle is a desk +A11 desks are stickers \[\text{(A)}=E+A=O*=\]Some stickers are not bottles. Hence, I does not follow. Again, No cup is a desk +A11 desks are stickers \[(A)=\text{ }E\text{ }+A=\text{ }O*=\]Some stickers are not cups. But, there exists a possibility in conclusion II. Hence conclusion II follows.
