Read the given statement and conclusions carefully and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement. Statement: "SAVE MONEY - BUY 1 GET 3" — Advertisement by a commercial brand. Assumptions: 1. Brand sales increased profusely after the offer. 2. People are more attracted to buy if they are offered more than what they are already paying. Correct Answer Only assumption 2 is implicit

  • Assumption 1 is not implicit because it says that "sales increased". This cannot be determined from an advertisement.
  • The purpose of an advertisement for an offer is to attract more people and an advertisement generally believes that people are more willing to buy when offers are provided. Therefore, assumption 2 is implicit.

Hence, only assumption 2 is implicit.
