Question

There are only two institutes- NIN and NNMB which have collected data on average height.

• A. If the inference is ‘definitely true’, i.e., it properly follows from the statement of facts given.
• B. If the ‘data is inadequate’ i.e. from the facts given you cannot say whether the inference is likely to be true or false.
• C. If the inference is ‘probably false’ though not ‘definitely false’ in the light of the facts given.
• D. If the inference is ‘definitely false’ i.e. it cannot possibly be drawn from the facts given or it contradicts the given facts.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

If the ‘data is inadequate’ i.e. from the facts given you cannot say whether the inference is likely to be true or false.

It is not given in the passage that there are only two institutes. There can also be more than two institutes. So, data is inadequate.
