Statements: Some Mobiles are Covers. Only a Few Covers are Phones. No Phone is Camera. Conclusions: I. 100% Covers can be Phones. II. Some Phones cannot be Mobiles. III. No Mobile is a Phone.

    C Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Either conclusion II or III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of the above conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Only a Few Covers are Phones (I) → Some Covers are Phones (I) and Some Covers are not Phones (O). Hence conclusion I does not follow.

    Some Mobiles are Covers (I) + Only a Few Covers are Phones (I) → No conclusion. Hence neither conclusion II nor III follow.
