In the following question below are given some statements followed by some conclusions. Taking the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts, read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusion logically follows the given statements. Statements I. All red are white. II. No red is green. Conclusions: I. Some white are green. II. Some white are not green. Correct Answer Only conclusions II follows.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows,

Conclusions:

I. Some white are green → False (it may be possible but not definite)

II. Some white are not green → True. (As red are not green and red is a part of the white, so that part of white can never be green)

Hence, only conclusions II follows.
