Statements, Assumptions and Conclusions

Question:

Statement: Sick people need medicine

Conclusions:

I: Healthy people do not need medicine.

II: People keep medicine in their home.

Options:

If only Conclusion I follows

If only Conclusion II follow

If either Conclusion I or II follows

If both Conclusions I and II follows

Correct Answer:

If only Conclusion I follows

Explanation:

Conclusion I: Healthy people do not need medicine.

This conclusion logically follows from the statement. If sick people need medicine, it implies that healthy people do not need it.

Conclusion II: People keep medicine in their home.

This conclusion does not logically follow from the statement. The statement only talks about who needs medicine, not where they keep it.

Thus, only Conclusion I logically follows from the statement.
