Below the statement are given followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the assumptions is/are implicit in the statement by considering the statement and the assumptions that follow. Statement: He catches a bus to Hyderabad on Wednesday to attend an event held on Saturday at his aunt's house in Hyderabad. Assumptions: I. He will reach Hyderabad on Thursday. II. He will reach Hyderabad before the event ends. Correct Answer Only assumption II is implicit.

  • The statement says that he got on a bus on Wednesday, to go to Hyderabad.
  • Thus it cannot be determined whether he reached Hyderabad on the very same day, or the next day or exactly when. Thus, assumption I is not implicit.
  • Since it is given that he caught the bus to go to Hyderabad for an event that was on Saturday, it is safe to assume that he would reach there before the event ends. Thus, Assumption II is implicit.

Hence the correct answer is option 3.
