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