    Question

    Given below is a statement followed by two possible underlying assumptions I and II. Read the information carefully and select the correct option.
    Statement:
    Though the fashion brand 'Pick2wear' failed miserably in country X, it would surely make huge profits in a country with a higher average age like country T.
    Which of the following can be assumed based on the given statement?
    I. Country T has a higher percentage of older people than country X.
    II. 'Pick2Wear' usually does not suit the dressing preferences of youngsters.

    A.

    Only (I) can be assumed

    B.

    Both (I) and (II) can be assumed

    C.

    Only (II) can be assumed

    D.

    Neither (I) nor (II) can be assumed

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    Statement:
    Though the fashion brand 'Pick2wear' failed miserably in country X, it would surely make huge profits in a country with a higher average age like country T.
    Assumptions:
    Assumption I:
    The statement mentions that country T has a higher average age than country X, but this does not necessarily mean it has a higher percentage of older people (e.g., "higher average age" could result from fewer children rather than more older people). Thus, I cannot be assumed.
    Assumption II:
    The statement does not provide any information about whether 'Pick2Wear' does not suit youngsters. It only indicates that it failed in country X and may perform better in country T due to a higher average age. There is no explicit link between its failure and youngsters' preferences. Thus, II cannot be assumed.
    So, both assumptions (I) and (II) can not be assumed.
    Thus, the correct answer is (d).
