Discussion
In question below is given a statement followed by two conclusions numbered I and II.
Give answer
(A) If only I follows
(B) If only II follows
(C) If either I or II follows
(D) If neither I nor II follows
(E) If both I and II follow.
Statement
I. All musicians are painters.
II. All dancers are painters.
Conclusion
I. All dancers are musicians.
II. Some painters are not dancers.
Answer: D
Correct answer: Neither I nor II follows
Musicians and dancers are both contained in painters, but two classes inside a third need not overlap - so conclusion I does not follow. Conclusion II asserts painters who are not dancers, and for all the statements say every painter might be a dancer. Neither follows.
