I) All Producer can never be Drum. ( No definite positive or negative relation is given between the elements, so all producer can never be drum is a possibility, therefore it is true)
II) All Guitar being Singer is a possibility ( Some guitar are drum and no drum is singer, therefore all guitar being singer is not a possibility, therefore it is false.)
III) No Actor is Producer. ( Positive relation between the two elements is given, therefore it is false.)
Hence, Only I follows.

Conclusion:
- Some Jasmine are not Sunflower.
- No Tulip being rose is a possibility.
- Some Carnation are rose.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

The least possible vein diagram for the given statement is
Conclusions:
I) Some Jasmine are not Sunflower. (No definite positive or negative relation is given between the elements, so it is possible but not definite, therefore it is false.)
II) No Tulip being rose is a possibility. (No definite positive or negative relation is given between the elements, so no tulip being rose is a possibility, therefore it is true)
III) Some Carnation are rose. ( Positive relation between elements is given, so it is true )
Hence, Only II and III follows.
Coded Syllogism Question 3:
In this question, two statements are given followed by two conclusions numbered i and ii. You have to assume everything in the statements to be true, then consider the two conclusions together and decide which of them logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statements.
Statements:
Some helmets are gloves.
All masks are helmets.

ii) Some helmets are masks.
Choose the appropriate one from the following options
(A) Only conclusion i follows
(B) Only conclusion ii follows
(C) Either i or ii follows
(D) Neither i nor ii follows
(E) Both i and ii follow.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Coded Syllogism Question 3 Detailed Solution
Given Statements:
Some helmets are gloves.
All masks are helmets.
The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:
Conclusions:
I) Some gloves are masks - False (Because, No definite relation given between Gloves and masks. so, it can be possible not definite).
II) Some helmets are masks - True (As, all masks are helmets. so, some helmet are definitely masks)
So, Only conclusion II follows.
Hence, the correct answer is " Option (1)".

Conclusions:
I. All blues are red. - False (because, All greens are blue and All reds are green. So, Some blues can be red only)
II. All greens are red - False (because, All greens are blue and All reds are green. So, Some greens can be red only)
III. All blues are green. - False (because, All greens are blue and All reds are green. So, Some blues can be greens only)
So, None of the conclusion I, II and III follow.
Hence, the correct answer is "None of the conclusion I, II and III follow".

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Coded Syllogism Question 5 Detailed Solution
Given:-
|
Statements:
I. K @ J → Only a few J is K.
II. J # C → All C is J.
III. C $ D → No D is C.
IV. K # B → All B is K.
Thus, the possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:
Conclusions:
I. All D is J is a possibility. → True (It is possible that All D is J as there is no negative or direct relation given between them. Hence, it is true.)
II. No J is K → False (It is definite that Some J is K. Hence, it is false)
III. Some D is not K. → False (It is possible that Some or All D is K as there is no direct relation given between them. Hence, it is false)

Coded Syllogism Question 14 Detailed Solution
Given:
|
Symbols P to Q |
# | @ | * | $ | % |
|
Meaning P to Q |
Only | All | Some |
Some Not |
No |
Statements: D % C * B # A
D % C → No D is C
C * B → Some C are B
B # A → Only B is A.
Thus, the possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:
Conclusions:
