Discussion
In the following question, a statement/group of statements is given followed by some conclusions. Without resolving anything yourself, choose the conclusion which logically follows from the statement(s).
Statement - All beggars are not poor.
Answer: A
Correct answer: Some beggars may not be poor.
The statement denies that all beggars are poor, which leaves open that some are and some are not - exactly what the keyed conclusion says. It does not tell us that every poor person is a beggar, which reverses the classes, nor does it license either conditional about a particular person A, since a denial of a universal supports no statement about any individual.
