Correct Answer: Only III
Solution : The Venn diagram is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some red are plates – From the above Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between red and plate. So, no definite relation can be drawn between them. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (II): Some plates are red – From the above Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between red and plate. So, no definite relation can be drawn between them. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (III): Some plates are blue – From the above Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing blue and plates overlap each other and have a part of their area in common. So, this conclusion follows.
So, only conclusion III follows. Hence, the third option is correct.
