Direction: The statements below are followed by two conclusions labeled I and II. Assuming that the information in the statements is true, even if it appears at variance with generally established facts, decide which conclusion(s) logically and definitely follow(s) from the information given in the statements.
Statements:
1) All toads are frogs.
2) All frogs are snakes.
Conclusion:
I. Some snakes are toads.

Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Both conclusions I and II follow.
The least possible Venn diagram is shown below:
Conclusions:
I. Some snakes are toads: True (as all toads are frogs and all frogs are snakes so, some snakes are definitely toads)
II. Some frogs are toads: True (as all toads are frogs, so some frogs are tods is true).
Hence, the correct answer is Both Conclusions I and II follow.
