Question
Statements:Every guava is mango.34% mangoes are fruits.Few fruits are bananas. Conclusions:I.Some guavas are fruits.II.Mostly bananas are mangoesSelect one:a. None of the aboveb. Only conclusion I followsc. Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II followsd. Both conclusion I and conclusion II follow.e. Only conclusion II follows
Solution
The answer is b. Only conclusion I follows.
Here's why:
Statement 1: Every guava is a mango. This means that all guavas can be considered as mangoes.
Statement 2: 34% of mangoes are fruits. This means that some mangoes (and therefore some guavas, because all guavas are mangoes) are fruits. So, conclusion I (Some guavas are fruits) follows.
Statement 3: Few fruits are bananas. This statement doesn't provide any direct relationship between bananas and mangoes. So, we can't conclude that mostly bananas are mangoes. Therefore, conclusion II (Mostly bananas are mangoes) does not follow.
