    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 Unit are Measurement Some Measurement are Parameter All Parameter are Scale Conclusions: I. Some Measurement are Scale II. Some Scale are Parameter III. Some Unit are Parameter
    A Only conclusion II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only conclusions I and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Neither conclusion I nor II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusions I follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some Measurement are Parameter (I) + All Parameter are Scale (A) → Some Measurement are Scale (I). Hence conclusion I follows. All Parameter are Scale (A) → Conversion → Some Scale are Parameter (I). Hence conclusion II follows. All Unit are Measurement (A) + Some Measurement are Parameter (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
