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.

Statements:

I: Some A are B.

II: Some B are K.

III: All K are J.

Conclusions:

I: Some B are J.

II: Some A are J

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Only conclusion I follows.

Conclusion:

I: Some B are J - Follows (As given in the statement some B are K and all K are J then the part of B which is K is also J.)

II: Some A are J - Does not follow (It is possible but not definite.)

Hence, the correct answer is Only conclusion I follows.
