Statement : The national norm is 100 beds per thousand population but in this state it is 150 beds per thousand.

Conclusions :
I. Our national norm is appropriate.
II. The state's health system is taking adequate care in this regard.

  • A.Only conclusion I follows
  • B.Only conclusion II follows
  • C.Either I or II follows
  • D.Neither I nor II follows
  • E.Both I and II follow

Answer: B

Correct answer: Only conclusion II follows

The state provides 150 beds per thousand against a norm of 100 - half as many again as required.

  • II - follows. Exceeding the norm is evidence that the state’s health system is taking adequate care on this measure.
  • I - does not follow. The statement reports what the norm is, not whether it is well chosen. Judging the norm appropriate would need evidence about health needs, which is not given.
