🙁why second digram there if you only want to give your answer acording to 1 st digram it creats confusion acording to second digram both stament are correct
Hi All,
The given answer is perfectly correct. Let me explain.
When we say the conclusion follows the given statements?
Ans:
Step 1: Draw the all possibility of Venn diagrams.
Step 2: Check the given conclusions against each diagram.
Step 3: If the conclusion follows (or satisfy) ALL the diagrams, then we can say 'it follows' the given statements.
Now, take a look at the given problem:
1. Some dogs are cats. (Not Follows)
Reason: It doesn't follow the given statements in case of first (left-side) diagram. Because some Dogs may not be Cats as per the first diagram.
2. Some cats are dogs. (Not Follows)
Reason: It doesn't follow the given statements in case of first (left-side) diagram. Because some Cats may not be Dogs as per the first diagram.
Result: Thus the given conclusions doesn't follow in the case if first diagram (even though it follows as per second diagram), we conclude that 'BOTH CONCLUSION NOT FOLLOWS THE GIVEN STATEMENTS' or 'Neither (1) nor (2) follows'.
Hope you understand guys. Have a nice day!
Shouldn't answer be E? All the 3 entities do have a common part.
Yes answer will be E.. Because in secondary diagram some dogs are also cats and some cats are also dogs
answer will be E
how?
How is this possible?
