Correct Answer: Only conclusion (I) is true


Solution : The possible Venn diagram, according to the given statements is as follows –

Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): Some pins are tables – According to the Venn diagram, the circle of pins and tables intersect and have some common area between them. Therefore, some pins are tables, which is a true conclusion.
Conclusion (II): Some caps are not pins – According to the Venn diagram there is no negative relation between caps and pins. So, this conclusion is not correct.

So, the only conclusion I is true. Hence, the second option is correct.
