    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: Some oranges are bananas. Some bananas are pears. Conclusions: I. Some pears are bananas. II. All pears are bananas. III. Some oranges are pears. 
    A None of the conclusions follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion I follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion III follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some bananas are pears (I) → Conversion → Some pears are bananas (I). Hence conclusion I follows but conclusion II does not follow. Some oranges are bananas (I) + Some bananas are pears (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
