Consider the given statement and decide which of the given assumptions is/are implicit in the statement. Statement: The chauffeur was worried as the car fuel gauge showed below red indicator. Assumption: 1. There may be leak in the fuel tank. 2. The chauffeur should locate a petrol pump. Correct Answer Only assumption 2 implicit

The statement does not suggests anything about a damaged fuel tank.

Therefore, a leak cannot be assumed.

Thus, assumption 1 is not implicit.

Since the fuel guage is indicating a shortage of petrol, it can be safely assumed that the chauffeur needs to locate a petrol pump which made him worry. Thus, assumption 2 is implicit.

Hence, only assumption 2 is implicit.
