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): All sweets are coffee – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that some parts of the circle representing sweet lie inside the circle representing coffee while some lie outside. Thus, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion (II): Some sweets are tea – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that the circles representing sweets and tea overlap and have some parts of their area in common. Thus, it can be concluded that some sweets are tea.
So, the only conclusion II follows. Hence, the first option is correct.
