Directions (96-100) : In the question below three statements are given followed by two conclusions. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements disregarding commonly known facts.
Statements:
All God is Pod
Mostly Pod is Good
No Good is Pond
Conclusions:
I. Some God is Pond
II. No Pod is Pond
Correct Answer :
Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Solution :
The correct option is Neither conclusion I nor II follows.
Step-by-Step Analysis of the Given Statements:
1. All God is Pod: This means the set of "God" is completely contained within the set of "Pod".
2. Mostly Pod is Good: The word "Mostly" represents "Some". So, "Some Pod is Good", meaning there is an overlap between the set of "Pod" and the set of "Good".
3. No Good is Pond: There is no intersection between the set of "Good" and the set of "Pond".
Evaluating the Conclusions:
Conclusion I: Some God is Pond
From the given statements, there is no direct or indirect negative or positive relation established between "God" and "Pond". "God" can exist independently of "Pond" or can overlap with "Pond" without violating any statement. Since it is not definite, Conclusion I does not logically follow.
Conclusion II: No Pod is Pond
We know that "No Good is Pond" and "Some Pod is Good". However, the portion of "Pod" that is not "Good" can potentially overlap with "Pond". Therefore, we cannot definitely conclude that "No Pod is Pond". Hence, Conclusion II does not logically follow.
Since neither conclusion I nor conclusion II definitely follows from the given statements, the correct choice is Neither conclusion I nor II follows.
