Direction: In each of the question below are three statements following by three conclusions numbered I, II and III. You have to take the three given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusion logically follows from the two statements disregarding commonly known fact.
-
Statement:
Some bags are plates. Some plates are chairs. All chairs are tables.
Conclusions:
I. Some tables are plates.
II. Some chairs are bags.
III. No chair is bag.
-
- Only I follows
- Only either II or III follows
- Only I and either II or III follows
- Only III follows
- None of these
Correct Option: C
Some pates are chairs + All chairs are tables = I + A = I = Some plates are tables → conversion → Some tables are plates(I). Hence I follows. Some bags are plates + Some plates are chairs = I + I = No conclusion Hence II and III do not follow. By combination. However, the two form a complementary E-I pair, Hence either I or III follows.
