Statements: No sweet is namkeen.
All coffees are sweets.
Some drinks are coffees.
Conclusions: I. No coffee is namkeen.
II. Some drinks which are sweets are not namkeens.

• 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

The correct option is E if both conclusion I and conclusion II follow.

All coffees are sweets (A) + No sweet is namkeen (E) $=A+E=E=$ No coffee is namkeen.

Thus, conclusion I follows.

Again, Some drinks are coffees (I) + All coffees are sweets (A) $=I+A=I=$ Some drinks are sweets + No sweet is namkeen (E) $=I+E=O=$ Some drinks are not namkeens.

Thus, conclusion II follows.

Hence, option E is correct.
