Question 44

The logic problems in this set present you with three true statements: Fact A, Fact B and Fact C. Then you are given three more statements (labelled I, II and III), and you must determine which of these, if any, is also a fact. One or two of the statements could be true; all of the statements could be true; or none of the statement could be true. Choose your answer based solely on the information given in the first three facts.
Fact A: All hats have brims.
Fact B: There are black hats and blue hats.
Fact C: Baseball caps are hats
If the first three statements are facts, which of the following statements must also he a fact?
I. All caps have brims
II. Some baseball caps are blue
III. Baseball caps have no brims.

Solution

The only statement which will be a fact is 'Some baseball caps are blue'.
All baseball caps are hats. Hats are of two colours blue and black.
Therefore, some baseball caps are blue.
Hence, only statement II is true.
