    Question

    In each question below are given two statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to take the two given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the two given statements, disregarding commonly known facts. Give Answer:

    Statements: All watches are wall clocks.

    Some wall clocks are calculators.

    Conclusions: I. No watch is a calculator.

    II. Some calculators are not clocks.

    A If only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If either conclusion I or II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If neither conclusion I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E If both I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Both the statements are positive statements and we know that no definite conclusion can be drawn from the negative statements. Hence, neither conclusion I nor conclusion II will follow.
