Statements: Some Joker are Circus. Some Rope are Circus. All Rope are Toy. Conclusions: I. Some Toy are Rope. II. Some Joker are Toy. III. Some Circus are Toy.

    B Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    All Rope are Toy (A) → Conversions → Some Toy are Rope (I). Hence conclusion I follows. Some Rope are Circus (I) + [Some Joker are Circus (I) → Conversion] → Some Circus are Joker (I) → No conclusion.  Hence conclusion II does not follow. Some Rope are Circus (I) → Conversions → Some Circus are Rope (I) + All Rope are Toy (A) →   Some Circus are Toy (I). Hence conclusion III follows.
