Question:

Which of the given two conclusion logically follows the given two statements, disregarding the knows facts.

Statements :

No Pen is cake

Some cake are envelope

Some envelope are bottles

Conclusions :

I. Some cake are bottles

II. Some Pen are bottles

Options:

Only conclusion I follows

Only conclusion II follows

Both conclusion I and II follow

Neither I and II conclusion follow

Correct Answer:

Neither I and II conclusion follow

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 4: Neither I and II conclusion follow

Conclusion I: Some Cake are Bottles : From the statements, we only know:

  • Some Cake are Envelope
  • Some Envelope are Bottles

There is no definite connection showing that the same envelopes are involved in both statements. Hence, we cannot conclude that some cakes are bottles. Therefore, Conclusion I does not follow.

Conclusion II: Some Pen are Bottles - We only know that No Pen is Cake, but there is no relation given between Pen and Bottle

Therefore, Conclusion II also does not follow.

Hence, neither conclusion follows.
