    Read the given statements and conclusions carefully.

    Assuming that the information 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 eggs are noodles. Some noodles are burgers. Conclusions: I. Some burgers are noodles. II. All burgers are noodles. III. Some eggs are burgers. 
    A None of the conclusions follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion I follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion III follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some noodles are burgers (I) → Conversion → Some burgers are noodles (I). Hence conclusion I follows but conclusion II does not follow. Some eggs are noodles (I) + Some noodles are burgers (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
