Question

Choose the inference that can be inferred from the given statement by selecting the right option.
Statement:
The total mango exports in the country reduced by \(30\%\) from last year to the present year.
Inferences:
I. The total production of mangoes is reduced from last year to the present year.
II. Only good quality mangoes are exported.

• A. Only inference I follows
• B. Only inference II follows
• C. Both inferences I and II follow
• D. Neither inference I nor inference II follows

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Analyze Inference I:

• The total mango exports reduced by 30%. 
• This does not directly imply that the total production of mangoes decreased. It could be due to factors like market demand, transportation issues, etc.

Conclusion: Inference I does not follow.

Step 2: Analyze Inference II:

• The statement only discusses mango exports, but does not mention anything about the quality of the mangoes exported.

Conclusion: Inference II does not follow.

Final Conclusion: Neither inference I nor inference II can be directly inferred from the given statement.
