    Read the given statements and conclusion carefully.

    Assuming the information given in the statement is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) form the statements. Statement: A few Red are Black A few Black are White No White is Pink All Teal are Pink Conclusions: I. Some Black are Teal II. Some Pink are not Black III. No Red is Pink
    A Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusion I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusions I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A few Black are White (I) + No White is Pink (E) → Some Black are not Pink (O) + Some Pink are Pink (I) → No conclusion. Hence neither conclusion I nor II follow. A few Red are Black (I) + A few Black are White (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
