The document discusses various statements and conclusions in syllogism logic problems. It provides several examples of statements and conclusions and identifies which conclusions follow from the statements. It analyzes the statements and conclusions in detail to determine the relationships between the terms and identifies the single correct option for the conclusion.

Type 2: No Book is pen Type 3: Some Book are pen Type 4: Some Book are not pen Type 5: Only books are pen Type 6: Only Few books are pen Type 7: Few books are pen Conclusion Type: Type 1: All Books are pen Type 2: No Books are pen Type 3: Some Books are pen Type 4: Some Books are not pen Type 5: All Books are pen is a possibilities Type 6: All Books are not pen is a possibilities Type 7: At least some books is pen Syllogism Only a few! Statements: Only a few lamps are bottles. No bottle is ship.
Conclusions: I. Some ships are definitely not lamps. II. All lamps can never be ships.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: Only a few lamps are bottles. No bottle is ship.
Conclusions: I. Some ships are definitely not lamps. II. All lamps can never be ships. Ans: B
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: Only a few wells are mats. All pillows are mats.
Conclusions: At least some pillows are wells. All wells can never be pillow.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: Only a few wells are mats. All pillows are mats.
Conclusions: At least some pillows are wells. All wells can never be pillow. Ans: B
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: All R are M. Only a few P are T. Some M are P. Conclusions: •Some T can never be R. Ans: B
•Some T can be R. (a) If only conclusion I follows. (b) If only conclusion II follows. (c) If either conclusion I or II follows. (d) If neither conclusion I nor II follows. (e) If both conclusions I and II follow Statements: Only a few S are C. Only a few C are U. No U is O. Ans: E
Conclusions: •Some S can be U. •Some C can be O. (a) If only conclusion I follows. (b) If only conclusion II follows. (c) If either conclusion I or II follows. (d) If neither conclusion I nor II follows. (e) If both conclusions I and II follow Syllogism Only! Statements: Only Apple are books few Apple are Cat
Conclusions: I is true I. Some Cats are apple II is not true as only A can be books II. Some Cats are books
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: Only tables are chairs. Some tables are desks.
Conclusions: I. All chairs are desks. II. Some desks are tables.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Checking C1: All chairs are desks.
Using S1 and S2, we get
'Only tables are chairs' or 'All chairs are tables' (A) + 'Some tables are desks' (I) ⇒ No conclusion between chair and desks because chairs can't be others.
Clearly, C1 doesn't follow.
Checing C2: Some desks are tables.
Converse of S2 (Some tables are desks) ⇒ Some desks are
tables.
Clearly, C2 follows.
Option B is hence the correct answer.
Statements: Some paints are shoes. Some shoes are sleepers. Only Shirts are sleepers
Conclusions: I. At least some shirts are paints. II. No shirt is a paint.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: Some paints are shoes. Some shoes are sleepers. Only Shirts are sleepers (All sleepers are shirt) Hence, either conclusion I or II follows. Conclusions: I. At least some shirts are paints. II. No shirt is a paint.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Statements: Only few cows are camels. Only buffaloes are camels No buffalo is a fox.
Conclusions : I. Some camels are foxes. II. No buffalo is a cow. III. No cow is a fox.
A Only conclusion I and II follows
B Only conclusion II and III follows C All follows D None of them follow E None of these Statements: Only few cows are camels. Only buffaloes are camels (All camels are buffaloes) No buffalo is a fox.
Conclusions : I. Some camels are foxes. II. No buffalo is a cow. Correct Option: D None of them follow III. No cow is a fox.
A Only conclusion I and II follows
B Only conclusion II and III follows C All follows D None of them follow E None of these Statements : 0% frocks are pants. Only frocks are shorts. Only a few jackets are pants.
Conclusions : I. Not a single pant is short. II. A good number of jackets are not frocks.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Checking C1: Not a single pant is short.
Using S2 and S1,
All shorts are frocks + '0% frocks are pants' or 'No frocks are pants' = No shorts are pants or No pants are shorts which is same as 'Not a single pant is short'. Hence, C1 follows.
Checking C2: A good number of jackets are not frocks.
A few jackets are pants + Converse of S1 (which is 'No pants are
frocks) = 'A few jackets are not frocks' which is same as 'A good number of jackets are not frocks'. Hence, C2 follows as well.
Clearly, option D is the correct answer.
Statements : Only pants frocks. 100% shorts are frocks. Only a few jackets are pants.
Conclusions : I. All pants are shorts. II. All shorts being jackets is a possibility.
A Only conclusion I follows
B Only conclusion II follows C Both conclusions I and II follow D Neither conclusion I nor II follows E Either conclusion I or II follows Checking C1: All pants are shorts.
Using S2 and S1, we get
'100% shorts are frocks' or 'All shorts are frocks' + 'All frocks are pants' = All shorts are pants. Clearly, C1 doesn't follow.
Checking C2: All shorts being jackets is a possibility.
As there is no negative statement, possibility between 'shorts'
