Statements:

1) Ayan drives only racer-bike.

2) Last week, Ayan rode "ABC" bike.

Conclusion:

1) 'ABC' is a racer-bike.

2) 'ABC' is not a racer-bike.

1. Only conclusion 1 follows.
2. Only conclusion 2 follows.
3. Conclusion 1 and conclusion 2 both follow.
4. Neither conclusion 1 nor conclusion 2 follow.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Only conclusion 1 follows.

The pattern followed here is:

1) 'ABC' is a racer-bike. → True (As, Ayan drives only racer-bike and Last week, Ayan rode "ABC" bike → 'ABC' is a racer-bike)

2) 'ABC' is not a racer-bike. → False (As, Ayan drives only racer-bike and Last week, Ayan rode "ABC" bike → 'ABC' is a racer-bike)

Hence, Only conclusion 1 follows.

• If there are two or more sentences that are used to frame a statement, then, the sentences must be interrelated, and mutual contradiction should be there.
• Do not look for truthful notions. The information provided in the statement is the only requirement for a student to answer the question. No assumptions must be made.
• Read the statement carefully and look for keywords that are common between the statement and the conclusions.
• If there is more than one conclusion that is applicable to the statement, students must ensure that the conclusions they opt for have some relation with each other.
