Question
Read the given statements and conclusion carefully.
Assuming the information given in the statement 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 Raisin are Almond. All Cashew are Almond. Some Cashew are Walnut. Conclusion: I. Some Almond are Walnut. II. Some Raisin are Walnut. III. Some Almond are Raisin.Solution
Some Cashew are Walnut (I) → Conversion → Some Walnut are Cashew (I) + All Cashew are Almond (I) → Some Walnut are Almond (I) → Conversion → Some Almond are Walnut (I). Hence conclusion I follows. All Raisin are Almond (A) + → Some Almond are Cashew (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. All Raisin are Almond (A) → Conversion → Some Almond are Raisin (I). Hence conclusion III follows.
