    Question

    Consider the given statement and decide which of the given assumptions is/are implicit in the statement.
    Statement:
    If you don't follow traffic rules, you will be fined.
    Assumptions:
    I: People may start following rules to avoid fine.
    II: Traffic rules are for people's safety.
    ​​

    A.

    Only assumption I is implicit.

    B.

    Neither I nor II is implicit.

    C.

    Both I and II are implicit.

    D.

    Only assumption II is implicit.

    Correct option is A

    Statement:
    If you don't follow traffic rules, you will be fined.
    Assumption (I):People may start following rules to avoid the fine.
    The purpose of a fine is to discourage rule-breaking.
    It is reasonable to assume that at least some people will follow the rules to avoid getting fined.
    This assumption is implicit.
    Assumption (II): Traffic rules are for people's safety.
    The statement does not mention safety at all.
    While traffic rules are generally made for safety, the statement only talks about a fine, not the reason behind the rules.
    This assumption is NOT implicit.
    Only assumption I is implicit.
    Thus, correct option is (a).
