Question

In the following question, certain statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Consider the statement(s) to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. Decide which one of the conclusions logically follows from the statement(s).
Statements: The best way to escape from a problem is to solve it.
Conclusions:
I. Your life will be dull if you don’t face problems.
II. To escape from problems, you should always have some solutions with you.
Choose the correct option:

Options

• If only conclusion I follows

• If either conclusion I or II follows

• If only conclusion II follows

• If neither conclusion I nor II follows

Answer 1

If neither conclusion I nor II follows
The statement says that the best way to escape from a problem is to solve it.
From this we cannot conclude that life is dull if you don’t face problems. Neither can we conclude that to escape or avoid problems you should have some solutions with you.
