Question

In the following question below are given some statements followed by some conclusions based on those statements. Taking the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusion logically follows the given statements:
Statements:

C.

D.

All conclusion follows

Correct option is B

Given:
All candies are chocolates.
Some chocolates are lolipops.

Conclusion (I): Some lolipops are not candies.
Conclusion (II): Some chocolates are not candies.
Conclusion (III): Some candies are chocolates.

From the given information seating arrangement will be.
Conclusion (I): While the diagram shows lolipops and chocolates overlap, there is no definite information regarding the relationship between lolipops and candies. The statement "Some lolipops are not candies" is a possibility but not a definite conclusion.
Conclusion (II): We know "All candies are chocolates." While it is possible that there are chocolates that are not candies, the statements do not guarantee it (as the circles for candies and chocolates could theoretically be identical). Therefore, "Some chocolates are not candies" is not a definite conclusion.
Conclusion (III): Since "All candies are chocolates" (A-type), it logically follows that "Some candies are chocolates" (I-type) is true by implication.

Only Conclusion (III) follows.

Thus, correct option is (Only conclusion III follows).
