Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follows/follow from the statements. Statements: All slates are books. Some books are paper. Some paper are boards. Conclusions: I. Some books are slates. II. All books are paper. III. Some boards are paper.
    A Only conclusions I and II follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusions I and III follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion I follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None of the conclusions follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    All slates are books (A) → Conversion → Some books are slates (I). Hence conclusion I follows. Some books are paper (I) → I.I. → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. Some paper are boards (I) → Conversion → Some boards are v (I). Hence conclusion III follows.
