Conclusion I:
- Some Maths are Science.
- Only Maths is English.
- Therefore, Some English can be Science.
- This conclusion is logically incorrect as there is no direct or indirect relationship established between English and Science.

- Only a few Science are Social.
- Some Maths are Science.
- Therefore, Some Social can be Maths.
- This conclusion logically follows from the given statements as there is a possibility for some Social to be Maths based on the given information.
Therefore, the correct answer is option (b) If Only conclusion II follows.

Niharika Dey answered
Statements:
1. Some Chairs are Tables
2. All Beds are Tables
3. No Table is a Floor

Conclusions:
I. All Floors can never be Bed
II. Some Beds being Chair is a possibility

Explanation:

Conclusion I: All Floors can never be Bed
- This conclusion cannot be logically inferred from the given statements.
- The statements only provide information about the relationship between Chairs, Beds, Tables, and Floors. There is no direct or indirect information given about the relationship between Floors and Beds.
- Therefore, conclusion I does not follow.

Conclusion II: Some Beds being Chair is a possibility
- This conclusion can be logically inferred from the given statements.
- We know that some Chairs are Tables and all Beds are Tables. Therefore, it is possible for some Beds to also be Chairs.
- Hence, conclusion II follows.

In summary, conclusion I does not follow from the given statements, while conclusion II does follow. Therefore, the correct answer is option (e) - Both conclusions I and II follow.

Question Analysis:
The question provides information about Mr Jina's movements in a specific direction from various points. We are asked to determine the point Mr Jina will reach after walking 15m to the east and then turning north from point Q.

Given Information:
- Mr Jina starts at point X and walks 9m north to reach point F.
- Mr Jina then turns west and walks 10m to reach point G.
- Mr Jina turns left and walks 4m to reach point T.
- Mr Jina turns left again and walks 7m to reach point B.
- Mr Jina turns south and walks 5m to reach point S.
- Mr Jina turns right and walks 12m to reach point L.
- Mr Jina turns left and walks 11m to reach point Q.

Solution:
To determine the point Mr Jina will reach after walking 15m to the east and then turning north from point Q, we need to analyze the given information step by step.

1. From point X to point F:
- Mr Jina walks 9m north to reach point F.

2. From point F to point G:
- Mr Jina turns west and walks 10m to reach point G.

3. From point G to point T:
- Mr Jina turns left and walks 4m to reach point T.

4. From point T to point B:
- Mr Jina turns left again and walks 7m to reach point B.

5. From point B to point S:
- Mr Jina turns south and walks 5m to reach point S.

6. From point S to point L:
- Mr Jina turns right and walks 12m to reach point L.

7. From point L to point Q:
- Mr Jina turns left and walks 11m to reach point Q.

Now, from point Q, Mr Jina walks 15m to the east and turns north.

Calculating the Final Point:
1. From point Q to the east:
- Mr Jina walks 15m to the east.

2. From the eastern point, Mr Jina turns north:
- Since Mr Jina is already at the northernmost point Q, turning north will not change his position.

Therefore, Mr Jina will still be at point Q after walking 15m to the east and turning north.

Conclusion:
The correct answer is option 'A' - Point X.

Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below.

Box R is placed sixth from the bottom of the stack. Five boxes are kept between Box R and Box P, which is not the topmost box. Box S is kept either immediately above or immediately below Box P. Box Q is kept exactly between Box P and Box R.
Three boxes are kept between Box B and Box K and both the boxes are kept below Box R. As many boxes are kept between Box S and Box R as between Box R and Box K.
Since Box K cannot be placed, Case 1 gets cancelled.
Only one box is kept between Box X and Box Z, which is placed immediately above or below Box B. As many boxes are placed above Box S as below Box Z.
 

How many such pairs of letters are there in the word ˜SYLLABUS™, each of which has as many letters between them in the word, as they have in the English alphabet (both in forward and backward directions)?
  • a)
    None
  • b)
    One
  • c)
    Two
  • d)
    Three
  • e)
    More than three
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Snehal Patel answered
The word "word" has 4 letters. To count the number of pairs of letters, we need to count the number of ways we can choose 2 letters from the word. This can be done using the combination formula, which is given by:

C(n, r) = n! / (r!(n-r)!)

where n is the total number of items, r is the number of items to be chosen.

In this case, n = 4 (number of letters in the word) and r = 2 (number of letters to be chosen).

Using the formula, we have:

C(4, 2) = 4! / (2!(4-2)!)
= 4! / (2!2!)
= (4 * 3 * 2 * 1) / (2 * 1 * 2 * 1)
= 24 / 4
= 6

Therefore, there are 6 pairs of letters in the word "word".
