Correct Answer: Only conclusions I and II follow
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): Some Nestle are Britannia – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing Nestle and Britannia overlap and have some parts of their area in common. So, it can be concluded that some Nestle are Britannia. Conclusion (II): No Amul is Cadbury – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that all Cadbury are Nestle and no Nestle is Amul. So, it can be concluded that no Amul is Cadbury. Conclusion (III): No Amul is Britannia – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no direct relation between Amul and Britannia. So, no definite relation can be drawn. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow.
So, the only conclusions I and II follow. Hence, the first option is correct.
