Identify which of the given conclusions follow from the given statements.
Statements:
All bags are boxes.
All boxes are utensils.
Some boxes are bowls.
Conclusions:
I. Some boxes are bowls.
II. All bags are utensils.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Both conclusions I and II follow
A conclusion follows only if it is true in every diagram that fits the statements.
Conclusion I (Some boxes are bowls) follows: it is the third statement itself, repeated word for word.
Conclusion II (All bags are utensils) follows: the bags lie inside the boxes and the boxes inside the utensils, so every bag lies inside the utensils in any diagram.
