Give answer (1) : if only conclusion I follows
Give answer (2) : if only conclusion II follows
Give answer (3) : if either I or II follows
Give answer (4) : if neither I nor II follows
Give answer (5) : if both I and II follow
Statements: Some forms are cards. Some forms are papers

Answer: Option A
[image]
I. This means atleast one card is form, which is definitely true for all the possible cases. So, conclusion I follows.
II. This means that atleast one card is paper,which is not a necessarily true answer.So, conclusion II does not follow.
Therefore, only conclusion 1 follows.So, the answer is option A.

As is clearly shown in the fig, only conclusion 2 follows.
DIRECTIONS for the questions 8 to 10: In these questions, relationships between different elements is shown in the statements. These statements are followed by two conclusions.
Give answer (1) : if only conclusion I follows
Give answer (2) : if only conclusion II follows
Give answer (3) : if either I or II follows
Give answer (4) : if neither I nor II follows
Give answer (5) : if both I and II follow
Statements : N ≥ O ≥ P = Q > R.
Conclusions :
I. N > R
II. R = N

Answer: Option A
As N ≥ O ≥ P = Q > R => N > R , So 1st Conclusion is correct.
⇒ As R is les than Q then clearly R is not equal to N.
Therefore, Only conclusion I follows.
The answer is option A.
Statements : W ≤ X < Y = Z > A ; W < B
Conclusions :
I. B > Z
II. W < A

Answer: Option D
I. We have B > W and Z > W
On this basis, we can not conclude that B > Z
II. Here, X > W and X < Z > A
On this basis, we can not conclude that W < A
Therefore, none of the conclusions follows.
The answer is option D. S
Statements : H > I > J > K; L < M < K
Conclusions :
I. I > M
II. L < H

Answer: Option E
I. I > K and K > M. So I > M. Conclusion I follows
II. L < K and K < H. So L < H. Conclusion II follows
So both conclusion follows.
The answer option is E
