      followed by three conclusions I, II and III. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusion definitely follows from the given statements, disregarding commonly known facts. Statements: All Jacket is Short. Some Short is Pant. No Pant is Skirt. Conclusions: I. Some Short is not Skirt. II. Some Skirt is Jacket. III. All Short is Jacket.

      B Only Conclusion I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Only Conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Only Conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Some Short is Pant (I) + No Pant is Skirt (E) → Some Short is not Skirt (O). Hence conclusion I follows but conclusion II does not follow. All Jacket is Short (A) → Conversion → Some Short is Jacket (I). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
