    Question

    Three statements are given, followed by three

    conclusions numbered I, II and III. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: Only Years are Days. Few Years are Months. All Months are Weeks. Conclusions: I. Some Years are Weeks. II. No Day is Month. III. Some Days are Weeks.
    A Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Few Years are Months (I) + All Months are Weeks (A) → Some Years are Weeks (I). Hence conclusion I follows. Only Years are Days → All Days are Years and Days can have negative relation with anyone. Hence conclusion II follows but conclusion III does not follow.
