Question

    Three statements are given, followed by three

    conclusions numbered I, II and III. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: All Platter are Original All Original are Right Some Right are Unique Conclusions: I. Some Original are Unique. II. All Platter are Right. III. Some Right are not Platter.
    A Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusions I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C All of the conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    All Original are Right   (A) + Some Right are Unique (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. All Platter are Original (A) + All Original are Right (A) → All Platter are Right (A). Hence conclusion II follows but conclusion III does not follow.
