Some almirahs are chairs. All chairs are tables. Conclusion-I: Certainly some almirahs are tables. Conclusion-II: Some cats may not be chairs. Which one of the following is correct?

Options

  1. a.

    Only Conclusion-I

    Only Conclusion-II

  3. c.

    Both Conclusion-I and Conclusion-II

    Correct answer
  4. d.

    Neither Conclusion-I nor Conclusion-II

Explanation

Conclusion-I : Since all chairs are tables, we can replace chairs in second statement with tables, now we have "some almirahs are tables". Hence, “Some almirahs are tables” is true. Conclusion-II : using statement 1 & 2, we can ascertain that Some cats may not be chairs. Hence, option (c) is the correct answer.
