I. Some week is year
II. All year may be minute
III. Some day is month
In the question below there are three statements followed by three conclusions I, II andIII. You have to take the three given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the three statements disregarding commonly known facts.
Solution
Only a few year is day (I) + All day is week (A) → Some year are week (I). Hence conclusion I follows. Some year are week (I) + 26% week is minute (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. Only year is month → All month are year and month cannot have any positive relation with anyone. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
