Statements: Only a few Apple is Orange. All Orange is Pear. Only a few Pear is Kiwi. Conclusion: I. Some Orange is not Kiwi. II. All Kiwi being Orange is a possibility. III. Some Apple is not Pear.

      E All of the above conclusions follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      All Orange is Pear (A) + Only a few Pear is Kiwi (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. All Orange is Pear (A) + Only a few Pear is Kiwi (I) → Probable conclusion → All Kiwi may be Orange (I). Hence conclusion II follows. Only a few Apple is Orange (I) + All Orange is Pear (A) → Some Apple is Pear (I). Hence conclusion III does not follow.
