Question

Two 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:

Some years are months.

All months are days.

Conclusions:

I. Some days are years.

II. All days are years.

III. No day is a year.

A Only conclusion I follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B Only conclusions II and III follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Only conclusion III follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Only conclusions I and III follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Some years are months (I) + All months are days (A) → Some years are days (I) → Conversion → Some days are years (I). Hence conclusion I follows but conclusion II and III do not follow.
