Which of the given assumptions support the following statement? Statement: Mahesh’s birthday was known to his friends. Assumptions: I. Mahesh arranges birthday party only for his family members. II. On his birthday, Mahesh received best wishes from friends. III. Mahesh received blessings from his mother and best wishes from family members. Correct Answer Only II is implicit

If assumption I holds, then there is no possibility that Mahesh’s friends would know about his birthday.

Therefore, assumption I is not implicit as it does not support the given statement.

According to assumption II, Mahesh receives best wishes from his friends on his birthday. This is possible when his friends are aware of his birthday. Thus, assumption II supports the given statement.

Therefore, assumption II is implicit.

Assumption III does not discuss anything about Mahesh’s friends. Therefore, assumption III does not support the given statement and hence is not implicit.

Hence, only assumption II is implicit.
