Statements: All politicians are men.
Every man is wise.
Some wise are experienced.
Conclusions: I. At least some wise are experienced.
II. At least some men are experienced.

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

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

if neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows.

P - Politicians, M - Men, W - Wise, E - Experienced

There are two cases possible.

Some W are E.

This is not true as it is a restatement.

Some M are E.

This is a possibility but not always true.

Thus neither conclusion I and II are correct.

Hence, Option D is correct.
