Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements disregarding commonly known facts. Statements: Some Technical are Mechanical All Mechanical are Electrical No Mechanical is Chemical Conclusion: I. No Technical is Chemical II. Some Electrical is not Chemical III.

      B Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Only conclusions I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of the conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Some Technical are Mechanical (I) + No Mechanical is Chemical   (A) → Some Technical are not Mechanical (O). Hence conclusion I does not follow. No Mechanical is Chemical (E) → Conversion → No Chemical is Mechanical (E) + All Mechanical are Electrical (A) → Some Electrical is not Chemical (O). Hence conclusion II follows. Some Technical are Mechanical (I) + All Mechanical are Electrical (A) → Some Technical are Electrical (I). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
