Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: All blues are whites. Some whites are greys. Conclusions:
I. All greys are whites.
II. All greys are blues.

A Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows Correct Incorrect

B Only conclusion I follows Correct Incorrect

C Only conclusion II follows Correct Incorrect

D Both the conclusions follow Correct Incorrect

Detailed Solution

The least possible diagram for the given statements is as follows:

Conclusions: I. All greys are whites → False (because statement given some whites are greys) II. All greys are blues → False (because no direct relationship is given between greys and blues) Hence, “Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows".
