In the following question, two statements numbered I and II are given. There may be cause and effect relationship between the two statements. These two statements may be the effect of the same cause or independent causes. These statements may be independent causes without saving any relationship. Read both the statements in question and mark your answer as:A. If statement I is the cause and statement II is its effect;B. If statement II is the cause and statement, I is its effect;C. If both the statements I and II are independent causes;D. If both the statements I and II are effects of independent causes;E. If both the statements I and II are effects of some common causes;I. The government has increased the rate of liquefied petroleum gas by 10% from the immediate response.II. The cost of production, maintenance and distribution of LPG is increased by 10% for the government.
Correct answer: B. If statement Il is the cause and statement, I is its effect;
- A. If statement I is the cause and statement II is its effect;
- B. If statement Il is the cause and statement, I is its effect;
- C. If both the statements I and II are independent causes;
- D. If both the statements I and II are effects of independent causes;
- E. If both the statements I and II are effects of some common cause;
Explanation
Statement II indicates that the cost of production, maintenance, and distribution of LPG has increased by 10%. This increase logically leads to the government raising the rate of LPG by 10% to offset the higher costs, as described in Statement I. Therefore, Statement II is the cause and Statement I is its effect, making Option B correct.Options A, C, D, and E are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the direct causal relationship between the increased costs and the subsequent rate hike.
