Question: 1
In each questions below are given two statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and II.
Statements :
All fish are tortoise. No tortoise is a crocodile.
Conclusions :
I. No crocodile is a fish.
II. No fish is a crocodile.
(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
(E) if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: E
Since both the premises are universal and one premise is negative, the conclusion must be universal negative. Also, the conclusion should not contain the middle term. So, II follows. I is the converse of II and thus it also holds.
Question: 2
In each questions below are given two statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and II.
Statements :
Some dreams are nights. Some nights are days.
Conclusions :
I. All days are either nights or dreams.
II. Some days are nights.
(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
(E) if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: D
Since both the premises are particular, no definite conclusion follows. However, II is the converse of the second premise and thus it holds.
Question: 3
In each questions below are given two statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and II.

(C) if either conclusion I or II follows
