Question
Read the given statements and find which of the conclusions given below, follows them: Statements: 1. All doors are windows. 2. All windows are tables. Conclusions: 1. No table is a door. 2. No window is a door.Choices:- Only (1) follows Only (2) follows Either (1) or (2) follows Neither (1) nor (2) follow
Solution
The correct answer is "Neither (1) nor (2) follow".
Here's the step by step reasoning:
Statement 1: All doors are windows. This means that every door is also a window.
Statement 2: All windows are tables. This means that every window is also a table.
From these two statements, we can infer that all doors are also tables, because they are all windows, and all windows are tables.
Conclusion 1: No table is a door. This is incorrect because we just inferred that all doors are tables.
Conclusion 2: No window is a door. This is also incorrect because the first statement says that all doors are windows.
Therefore, neither conclusion 1 nor conclusion 2 follows from the statements.
