Question Details

In this question below, some statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. 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. Give answer-


Statements:
All skipper is win
Some win is player
Only a few player is hear
Conclusions:
I. All skipper being hear is a possibility
II. No win is hear

Options

A

If only conclusion I follows

B

If only conclusion II follows

C

If either conclusion I or II follows

D

If neither conclusion I nor II follows

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

If only conclusion I follows

If only conclusion I follows

Solution :

The correct answer is: If only conclusion I follows

Let us analyze the given statements step-by-step using standard set theory and Venn diagram concepts to determine the validity of the conclusions.

Step 1: Analyze the Statements
1. "All skipper is win": This statement means that the entire category of "skipper" is contained inside the category of "win". Let us denote Skipper as S and Win as W. Mathematically, this is expressed as:
SW
2. "Some win is player": This indicates that there is a common intersection between the set of "win" (W) and "player" (P). Thus:
WP
3. "Only a few player is hear": The phrase "only a few" carries a dual meaning in syllogisms. It means "some players are hear" AND "some players are not hear". Let us denote Hear as H. This establishes that:
- There is some intersection between Player and Hear:
PH
- There are some elements of Player that must remain outside of Hear:
PH

Step 2: Evaluate the Conclusions

Conclusion I: "All skipper being hear is a possibility"
To determine if this is possible, we look for any constraints that prevent the set of "skipper" (S) from overlapping completely with "hear" (H). The statements only restrict the relationship between "player" (P) and "hear" (H) (specifically, that not all players can be hear). There is no direct negative relationship or restriction between "skipper" (S) and "hear" (H). Thus, we can easily draw a possible scenario where the entire set S lies inside the set H without violating any of the given statements. Therefore, this possibility is true, and Conclusion I follows.

Conclusion II: "No win is hear"
This conclusion asserts a definite negative relationship between "win" (W) and "hear" (H), meaning they can never overlap. However, looking at the statements, there is no negative restriction between W and H. It is entirely possible for "win" and "hear" to overlap, or even not overlap. Since we cannot say with absolute certainty that no win is hear under all valid scenarios, this definite conclusion is invalid. Therefore, Conclusion II does not follow.

Conclusion
Since only Conclusion I logically follows from the given statements, the correct option is "If only conclusion I follows".
