Logic Questions and Answers Pdf

In each questions below are given two statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and
II.

1. Statements :
No women teacher can play. Some women teachers are athletes.
Conclusions :
I. Male athletes can play.
II. Some athletes can play.
a. if only conclusion I follows
b. if only conclusion II follows
c. if either conclusion I or II follows
d. if neither conclusion I nor II follows
e. if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: D
Since one premise is negative, the conclusion must be negative. So, neither
conclusion follow.
2. Statements :
All windows are doors. No door is wall.
Conclusions :
I. No window is wall.
II. No wall is door.
a. if only conclusion I follows
b. if only conclusion II follows
c. if either conclusion I or II follows
d. if neither conclusion I nor II follows
e. if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: E
Since both the premises are universal and one premise is negative, the
conclusion must be universal negative. Also, the conclusion should not
contain the middle term. So, I follows. However, II is converse of the second
premise and thus it also holds.
3. Statements :
All flowers are trees. No fruit is tree.
Conclusions :
I. No fruit is flower.
II. Some trees are flowers.
a. if only conclusion I follows
b. if only conclusion II follows
c. if either conclusion I or II follows
d. if neither conclusion I nor II follows
e. if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: E
As discussed above, the conclusion must be universal negative and should
not contain the middle term. So, it follows that ‘No flower is fruit’. I is the
converse of this conclusion and thus it follows. II is the converse of the first
premise and so it also holds.
4. Statements :
All bags are cakes. All lamps are cakes.
Conclusions :
I. Some lamps are bags.
II. No lamb is bag.
a. if only conclusion I follows
b. if only conclusion II follows
c. if either conclusion I or II follows
d. if neither conclusion I nor II follows
e. if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: C
Since the middle term ‘cakes’ is not distributed even once in the premises,
no definite conclusion follows. However, I and II involve only the extreme
terms and form a complementary pair. So, either I or II follows.
5. Statements :
No bat is ball. No ball is wicket.
Conclusions :
I. No bat is wicket.
II. All wickets are bats.
a. if only conclusion I follows
b. if only conclusion II follows
c. if either conclusion I or II follows
d. if neither conclusion I nor II follows
e. if both conclusions I and II follow
Ans: D
Since both the premises are negative, no definite conclusion follows.
