DIRECTIONS for questions 6 -7: The question below has either two or three statements followed by two or three conclusions. You have to take the given statements to be true and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements, disregarding the commonly known facts.
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
4. Statements:

1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4
5. 5
Answer: Option A.

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.
5. Statements: i. All animals are predators. ii. All predators are tigers. Conclusions: I. All tigers are definitely predators. II. All animals are tigers.
1. 1
2. 1
3. 3
4. 4
5. 5
Answer: Option B.

As is clearly shown in the fig, only conclusion 2 follows.
DIRECTIONS for 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
6. Statements: N ≥ O ≥ P = Q >R
Conclusions: I. N>R II. R = N
1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4
5. 5
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.
7. Statements: W ≤ X < Y = Z > A ; W< B
Conclusions: I. B > Z II. W < A
1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4
5. 5
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.
8. Statements: H > I > J >K; L < M< K
Conclusions: I. I > M II. L< H
1. 1
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4
5. 5
Answer: Option D.
I. Here, Z > X > W
⇒Z > W and also, B > W
On this basis, we can not clearly determine the relation between B and Z.
II. Z > X > W
⇒Z > W and also, Z > A
Again, we cannot conclude that W < A
Therefore, none of the conclusion follows.
The answer is option D.
