Statement: Ethical behavior fosters trust, but profitability often relies on operational efficiency as well.
Conclusion I: Ethical behavior is not sufficient for profitability.
Conclusion II: Operational efficiency is required for trust.
Which conclusion follows?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C

Ethical behavior is not sufficient alone for profitability because profitability also needs operational efficiency.
So, Conclusion I follows.
Nothing in the statement says operational efficiency is needed for trust.
So, Conclusion II does not follow.
Only Conclusion I follows
Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
