Question 44
Back to Exercise
Statements: All pens are chalks. All chairs are chalks.
Conclusions:
I. Some pens are chairs.
II. Some chalks are pens.
- A Only conclusion I follows
- B Only conclusion II follows Correct
- C Either I or II follows
- D Neither I nor II follows
- E Both I and II follow
Correct Answer: Option B
Since the middle term 'chalks' is not distributed even once in the premises, no definite conclusion follows. However, II is the converse of the first premise and so it holds.
