Question 13

In the following question, two statements are given each followed by two conclusions I and II. You have to consider the statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which of the given conclusions, if any, follows from the given statements.
Statement:
(I) No women can vote.
(II) Some women are politicians.
Conclusions:
(I) Male politicians can vote.
(II) Some politicians can vote.

Solution

From the given statements, there is no information regarding male politicians. So male politicians may or may not vote. Hence conclusion I do not follow the given statements.

Some women are politicians so there is a possibility that all politicians are women who cannot vote. So in this case no politician will vote. Hence conclusion II do not follow the given statements.

$$\therefore\ $$Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows the given statements.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C
