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).

Three-fourths of the students consisting of 20 boys and 12 girls play badminton.

  • A.Girls are poor players.
  • B.Badminton is compulsory in this school.
  • C.One-fourth of the boys do not play badminton.
  • D.None of these

Answer: D

Correct answer: None of these

The three-quarters applies to the students taken together, not to the boys and the girls separately, so nothing can be said about what fraction of the boys plays. The statement gives no comparison of ability between the sexes and no indication that the game is compulsory. With no supportable conclusion among the first three, the fourth is the answer.
