Read the given statements and conclusions carefully and decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: 1) All students in my class are active. 2) Rohini is not active. Conclusions: I. Rohini is not a student of my class. II. Rohini must be active.
ABoth conclusions I and II follow.
BOnly conclusion I follows.
COnly conclusion II follows.
DNeither conclusion I nor II follows.

correct answer is: option b : Only conclusion I follows.
Explanation: The first statement indicates that all students in the class possess the characteristic of being "active." The second statement says Rohini is not active. Conclusion I logically follows because if all students in the class are active, and Rohini is not active, then Rohini cannot be a student in the class. Conclusion II is incorrect because the premise states that Rohini is *not* active.

  • Option a: Both conclusions I and II do not follow simultaneously. Conclusion II contradicts the given statement that Rohini is not active.
  • Option b: This option correctly states that only conclusion I follows logically from the statements.
  • Option c: Conclusion II is incorrect as it contradicts the provided statement that Rohini is not active.
  • Option d: Conclusion I logically follows from the statements; therefore, this option is incorrect.
