Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is only 1.

According to the statements: 'Some fruits are sweet' and 'Mango is a fruit'.

Conclusion 1 (True): Since mango is a fruit and some fruits are sweet, it is completely possible that 'Mango may be sweet'. Where there is no certainty, the conclusion with 'may be' (possibility) is considered correct.

Conclusion 2 (False): The statement does not provide any information about mango being sour. Therefore, we cannot claim that 'Mango is definitely sour'.
