Directions: Three Statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.
Statement I: All curtains are beds.
Statement II: Some beds are chairs.
Statement III: Some chairs are not tables.
Conclusion I: Some chairs are tables.
Conclusion II: Some chairs being curtains is possible.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Only conclusion II follows.
The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:
Conclusion I: Some chairs are tables. - Does not follow (because Some chairs are not tables. So, it can be possible but not definite)
Conclusion II: Some chairs being curtains is possible. - Follows (because there is no direct relation between curtains and chairs. So, it is true)
