    Statement : "The local council has decided to impose

    heavy fines for littering in public places." Assumptions : I. People will stop littering if heavy fines are imposed. II. Cleanliness in public places is a priority for the council. A statement is given, followed by two assumptions I and II. You have to consider the statement and two assumptions and decide which of the assumption(s) is/are implicit.
    A If only Assumption I is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B If only Assumption II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C If neither Assumption I nor II is implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D If both Assumption I and II are implicit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Assumption I is not directly implicit, as the statement does not guarantee that people will stop littering just because fines are imposed. Assumption II is directly implicit, as the decision to impose fines indicates that cleanliness in public places is a priority for the council.
