Question 32 Back to Exercise

Statements: All tubes are handles. All cups are handles.

Conclusions:

I.  All cups are tubes.

II. Some handles are not cups.

  • A Only conclusion I follows
  • B Only conclusion II follows
  • C Either I or II follows
  • D Neither I nor II follows Correct
  • E Both I and II follow
Correct Answer: Option D

Both the premises are A type propositions. So, in either, the middle term 'handles' forming the predicate is not distributed. Since the middle term is not distributed even once in the premises, no definite conclusion follows
