Question : Directions: In the following question below are given some statements followed by some conclusions based on those statements. Taking the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which conclusions logically follow the given statements.
Statements:
I. All U is M.
II. All G is M.
Conclusions:
I. Some G is U.
II. Some G is M.
Option 1: Only conclusion I follows
Option 2: Both conclusions I and II follow
Option 3: Only conclusion II follows
Option 4: Neither conclusion follows
Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statement is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion I:
Some G is U – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between G and U. So, no definite relation can be drawn. Thus, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion II:
Some G is M – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circle representing G is completely overlapped by the circle representing M. Since all G are M, so some G will definitely be M. Thus, this conclusion follows.
So, the only conclusion II follows. Hence, the third option is correct.
