Three statements are given, followed by three conclusions numbered I, II, and III. 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:
All R are O.
All O are B.
Some W are B.
Conclusions:
I. Some B are R.
II. Some W are O.
III. All O are R.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Only conclusion I follows.
Conclusions:
I. Some B are R: → True (All R are part of B, so Some B are R is true).
II. Some W are O: → False (This is possible but not definite, as no direct relationship between the two is given).
III. All O are R: → False (This is possible but not definite).
Hence, the correct answer is Only conclusions I follows.
