    Question

    Three statements are given, followed by three conclusions (I), (II), and (III). You have to consider these statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. You are to decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the given statements.
    Statements:
    (1) No chair is table
    (2) Some benches are tables
    (3) All chairs are Almirahs
    Conclusions:
    (I) Some Almirahs are tables
    (II) Some benches are chairs
    (III) No table is Almirah

    A.

    Only conclusion I follows

    B.

    Only conclusion II follows

    C.

    Only conclusions II and III follow

    D.

    Either conclusion I or III follows

    Correct option is D

    Statements:
    (1) No chair is table
    (2) Some benches are tables
    (3) All chairs are Almirahs
    Conclusion (I): Some Almirahs are tables
    Chairs are Almirahs, but chairs are not tables.
    Benches are partly tables, but no link is given between benches and Almirahs.
    So this conclusion does not definitely follow.
    Conclusion (II): Some benches are chairs
    No relation is given between benches and chairs.
    So this conclusion does not follow.
    Conclusion (III): No table is Almirah
    We only know that chairs (which are Almirahs) are not tables.
    But it is possible that some Almirahs (other than chairs) may be tables.
    So this conclusion does not definitely follow.
    However, conclusion (I) and conclusion (III) are contradictory:
    (I) says some Almirahs are tables
    (III) says no table is an Almirah
    Both cannot be true together, but one of them must be true.
    Thus, either conclusion (I) or conclusion (III) follows.
    Correct option is (D).
