Question 34

Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.

Statements:
All cookies are sweet.
Some sweets are snacks.

Conclusions:
I. All sweets are cookies.
II. All cookies are snacks.

Conclusion: I. All sweets are cookies.

In the statement, 'All cookies are sweets.' is given. But the reversal of that cannot be concluded. So the given conclusion does not follow.

Conclusion: II. All cookies are snacks.

There is not any direct relationship between 'cookies' and 'snacks'. So the given conclusion does not follow.

Hence neither conclusion I nor II follows.
