Question : Directions: Two statements are given, each followed by two Conclusions or assumptions, I and II. You have to consider the statement to be true, even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given conclusions or assumptions can be drawn from the given statements. Indicate your answer. Statements: All Hindus are God-fearing. No Japanese is a Hindu. Conclusions: I. The Japanese are not God-fearing. II. All God-fearing are Hindus.
Option 1: Only conclusion I follows
Option 2: Only conclusion II follows
Option 3: Both conclusion I and conclusion II follow
Option 4: Neither Conclusion I nor Conclusion II follows
Correct Answer: Neither Conclusion I nor Conclusion II follows
Solution : Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion I: The Japanese are not God-fearing. The statement does not say anything about Japanese are God-fearing or not. It only says that no Japanese is a Hindu. Hence, this conclusion does not follow the above statement. Conclusion II: All God-fearing are Hindus. From the above statement, it can be said that all Hindus are God-fearing but it does not say that all God-fearing people are Hindus, maybe some other religions of people are also God-fearing. Hence, this conclusion does not follow the above statement.
So, the correct answer is neither Conclusion I nor Conclusion II follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
