Two statements are given, followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: Some candles are bulbs Some bulbs are generators Conclusions: I. Some candles are generators II. All candles are generators Correct Answer <span style="">Neither conclusion I nor II follows</span>

Conclusions:

I. Some candles are generators → False (No direct relation given between candles and generators so it may be possible but not defined)

II. All candles are generators → False (No direct relation given between candles and generators so it may be possible but not defined)

Hence, “Neither conclusion I nor II follows” is the correct answer.
