    Question

    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: Some Bracket are Sum All Difference are Sum No Sum are Product Conclusions: I. Some Difference being Product is a possibility. II. Some Difference are Bracket.
    A Both Conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only Conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only Conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Neither Conclusion I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Either Conclusion I or II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    All Difference are Sum (A) + No Sum are Product (E) → No Difference is Product (E) → Probable conclusion → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. All Difference are Sum (A) → Conversion → Some Sum are Difference (I). Some Bracket are Sum (I) + Some Sum are Difference (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow.
