Statements :All pens are pencils. Some erasers are pencils. All Scales...
Statements and Conclusions:
Statements:
- All pens are pencils.
- Some erasers are pencils.
- All scales are pens.
Conclusions:
I. All scales are pencils.
II. All erasers being scale is a possibility.
Explanation:
From the given statements, we can conclude that:
- All pens are pencils.
- Some erasers are pencils.
- All scales are pens, which means all scales are pencils as well.
Therefore, conclusion I follows logically from the given statements.
For conclusion II, we need to analyze the given statements carefully. It is given that "Some erasers are pencils" and "All pens are pencils". This means that there are some erasers which are also pencils, and since all pens are pencils, some pens must also be erasers. Hence, it is possible that some erasers are scales. Therefore, conclusion II also follows logically from the given statements.
Hence, both conclusions I and II follow from the given statements.
Answer: Option E (If both conclusions I and II follow).
Statements :All pens are pencils. Some erasers are pencils. All Scales...
Yes both conclusions follow since all scales are pens and all pens are pencils so.. all scales are pencils. Then we talk about all erasers...since some erasers are pencils and all pencils are pen and scales therefore only some erasers can be scales.Hence both are true
