    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: Some DS is VB. Some VB is WA. No KL is DS. Conclusions: I. Some VB is not KL. II. Some WA is DS. III. Some DS is not KL.
    A Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusions I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusions II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    No KL is DS (E) + Some DS is VB (I) → Some VB is not KL (O*). Hence conclusion I follows. Some DS is VB (I) + Some VB is WA (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. No KL is DS (E) → Conversion → Some DS is not KL (O). Hence conclusion III follows.
