Statement: In the university examination, most of the candidates take exam in Hindi medium. Conclusions: I. Some candidates take exam in Hindi. II. Most of the candidates appeared for the examination are from Hindi medium. III. In this examination no candidate writes answers in medium other than Hindi. IV. All the candidates who appear in this examination write answers in Hindi. Correct Answer Only conclusion II follows
According to the given information,
- “Most” means there are many candidates but not all who write in Hindi.
- This helps us eliminate the first conclusion which says ‘some’ candidates write in hindi.
- The third conclusion claims there are none who write in any other language apart from Hindi.
- But ‘most’ does not mean all. Therefore, the third conclusion is invalid.
- For the same reason, the fourth conclusion which claims that every candidate writes answers in Hindi is eliminated.
- The second conclusion follows because choosing the medium as Hindi could mean that these candidates are from the Hindi medium.
- Hence, “only conclusion II” follows.
