Question

Choose the correct option about conclusion drawn from the statements given below

Statements: No chocolate is tasty.
Every chocolate is brown.
Some browns are good.
Conclusions: I. No brown is tasty.
II. There is a possibility that some chocolates are not good.

• A. if only conclusion I follows.
• B. if only conclusion II follows.
• C. if either conclusion I or II follows.
• D. if neither conclusion I nor II follows.
• E. if both conclusions I and II follow.

Answer 1

The correct option is B if only conclusion II follows.

Fig 1 is a basic Venn diagram presentation of Statements.

Conclusion I: From the figure 2, it can be clearly concluded that brown and tasty can be connected to each other. It doesn't follow.

Conclusion II: From fig 2, it can be seen that it is not necessarily true. But as it is a possible situation, it follows.

Answer : B
