Statements: Some pens are balls. All balls are bats. Some tigers are balls. Conclusion: I. Some bats are tigers. II. Some pens are bats. III. All bats are balls.
A
Only I and II follow
B
Only II follows
C
Only III follows
D
None of these
Correct Option:
A
Explanation
"Some pens are balls" and "all balls are bats" imply that those particular pens which are balls are also bats, so conclusion II follows. Similarly, "some tigers are balls" combined with "all balls are bats" means some tigers are bats, so conclusion I follows. However, "all bats are balls" reverses the universal statement and does not follow.
