    Question

    Two Statements are given, followed by three conclusions numbered I, II and III. Assuming that the information given in the statement s 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 jugs are stands.

    Some stands are table

    Conclusions:

    I. No table is a jug.

    II. No stand is a jug.

    III. Some table s are jugs.

    A Either conclusion I or III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B All the conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusions II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some jugs are stands (I) + Some stand s are table (I) → No conclusion. Hence neither conclusion I nor II follows but it will make a complimentary pair. Hence either conclusion I or II follows. Some jugs are stands (I) → Conversion → Some stands are jugs (I). Hence conclusion II does not follow.
