Statement : Most of the Indian States existed before independence.

Conclusion :
I. Some Indian States existed before independence.
II. Some Indian States did not exist before independence.

  • A.Only conclusion I follows
  • B.Only conclusion II follows
  • C.Either I or II follows.
  • D.Neither I or II follows.
  • E.Both I and II follows.

Answer: B

Correct answer: Only conclusion I follows

If most of the states existed before independence, then certainly some did - conclusion I follows with no further assumption. Conclusion II requires reading “most” as “not all”, which is an implication of ordinary speech rather than something the statement asserts. Only I follows.
