Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (C)
As we can check from the diagram.
Conclusions
I: All Televisions of high standard are manufactured by Onida $\times$
II: Some of the Onida Televisions are of high standard $\checkmark$
III: None of the Onida Televisions is of high standard $\times$
IV: Some of the Onida Televisions of high standard are sold in that shop $\checkmark$
Therefore, all the statements follow. Hence, Option C is correct.
2) Answer (A)
All mangoes are fruits and all fruits are vegetables. Hence all mangoes must be vegetables. Some vegetables are grass.
Now conclusion I says that some mangoes may be grass. The thing to note here is that the conclusion uses the word ‘may’. Hence the conclusion need not be true in all cases. Even if it is true in some cases, that would suffice. Conclusion II says that no mango is grass. This needs to be true in all cases. If we can have one cases where this is not being followed than the conclusion does not hold true. Conclusion III says that all grass is vegetable. This should always be true.
Among the given conclusions only conclusion I is true. This can be validated by the following venn diagram.
3) Answer (A)
Biscuits, chocolates, snacks and meals can be represented as shown in the diagram.
From the figure we can say that some snacks are biscuits. Hence, conclusion 1 is true
No meal is a snack. Hence, conclusion 2 is false.
No meal is a biscuit. Hence, conclusion 3 is false.
4) Answer (A)
As we can check from the diagram.
Conclusions
I: Some Dogs are Puppies $\checkmark$
II: Some Cats are Dogs $\checkmark$
II: No Mouse is a Cat $\checkmark$
II: All Puppies are Cats $\checkmark$
Therefore, all the statements follow. Hence, Option A is correct.
5) Answer (C)
Mangoes, apples, fruits and vegetables can be represented as shown in the figure below.
From the figure we can see that, some fruits are mangoes. Thus conclusion 1 is true.
We can see that no vegetable is an apple. Thus conclusion 2 is not true.
Similarly we can see that all mangoes are fruits. Thus conclusion 3 is true.
Hence Option C.
6) Answer (A)
Consider the following figure-
We can see that all professors need not be males. So, I is incorrect.
II is also incorrect as we can see that an overlap between professor and pugs is possible.
III is always true since some pugs are not dogs.
Thus, A is the correct answer.
7) Answer (B)
The following venn diagram can be drawn based on the given instructions
Given that some monkeys are donkeys this doesn’t necessarily mean that some donkeys are lizards and raccoons.
So, conclusions 1 and 3 are incorrect.
All raccoons are monkeys and some raccoons are lizards ==> some lizards are monkeys.
Therefore, conclusion 2 is correct.
8) Answer (E)
(i) All beans are pulses Universal affirmative (A-type).
(ii) Some fruits are apples particular Affirmative (I-type).
(iii) No crops is seed Universal Negative (E-type).
(iv) Some crops are not seeds Particular Negative (O-type).
All diaries are journals. Some journals are books.
A + I => No conclusion
From the above diagram it is clear that “some diaries being books is a possibility.”
9) Answer (E)
(i) All beans are pulses Universal affirmative (A-type).
(ii) Some fruits are apples particular Affirmative (I-type).
(iii) No crops is seed Universal Negative (E-type).
(iv) Some crops are not seeds Particular Negative (O-type).
Some apples are fruits. No fruits is vegetable.
I + E => O-type of conclusion
“Some apples are not vegetables.”
All potatoes are vegetables. No vegetable is fruit.
A + E => E-type of conclusion
“No potato is fruit”.
Neither conclusion I nor II follows.
10) Answer (A)
(i) All beans are pulses Universal affirmative (A-type).
(ii) Some fruits are apples particular Affirmative (I-type).
(iii) No crops is seed Universal Negative (E-type).
(iv) Some crops are not seeds Particular Negative (O-type).
All beans are pulses. All pulses are crops.
A + A => A-type of conclusion
“All beans are crops.”
This is conclusion II
All beans are crops. No crops is a seed
A + E => E-type of conclusion
“No bean is a seed.”
All pulses are crops. No crops is a seed.
A + E E-type of conclusion
“No pulse is a seed.”
11) Answer (D)
Consider the following figure-
We can see that all the conclusions follow. Thus, D is the answer.
12) Answer (A)
Consider the following figure-
We can see that none of the conclusions follow. Thus, A is the answer.
13) Answer (C)
Consider the following figures-
From the first figure, we can conclude that I need not be true all the times. Similarly from the second figure, we can conclude that III need not be true all the times. But II is true every time. Thus, the answer is C.
14) Answer (D)
Consider the following figure-
We can see that only conclusion III follows. Thus, D is the correct answer.
15) Answer (C)
