    Question

    Read the given statements and conclusions carefully.

    Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: All blues are whites. Some whites are greys. Conclusions: I. All greys are whites. II. All greys are blues.
    A Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Both the conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The least possible diagram for the given statements is as follows:   Conclusions: I. All greys are whites → False (because statement given some whites are greys) II. All greys are blues → False (because no direct relationship is given between greys and blues) Hence, “Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows".
