Question : Directions: Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: I. All pictures are in colour. II. No colour is black. Conclusions: I. Some pictures are black. II. No picture is black.
Option 1: Only conclusion II follows
Option 2: Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Option 3: Both conclusions I and II follow
Option 4: Only conclusion I follows
Correct Answer: Only conclusion II follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some pictures are black – Because there is a negative relation between pictures and black through the colour. So, no positive relation can be drawn between them. Therefore, this conclusion is not true. Conclusion (II): No picture is black – Because there is a direct negative relation between colour and black and the picture is part of the colour. Therefore, this conclusion is true.
So, only conclusion II follows. Hence, the first option is correct.
