Question

Statements: 1. All cakes are ice cream 2. No ice cream is chocolate 

Conclusions: 1. Some cakes are chocolate 2. No cake is chocolate Choose the correct option:

• A. Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows
• B. Only conclusion I follows
• C. Both conclusion I and conclusion II follows
• D. Only conclusion II follows

Hint:

When analyzing conclusions from statements, ensure that the logic directly follows from the given information. If something contradicts the statements, the conclusion does not follow.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

We are given the following statements: - All cakes are ice cream. - No ice cream is chocolate. From these statements, let's analyze the conclusions: 

Conclusion 1: Some cakes are chocolate. 
This conclusion would imply that there is an overlap between cakes and chocolate. However, from the given statements, we know that no ice cream (and thus no cakes) can be chocolate. Therefore, conclusion 1 does not follow. 

Conclusion 2: No cake is chocolate. 
Since all cakes are ice cream, and no ice cream is chocolate, it follows that no cake can be chocolate. Therefore, conclusion 2 follows. Thus, the correct answer is option (d).
