Statements:A. All artists are painters.B. All actors are gentle.C. All gentle are painters.Conclusions:I. No artist is actor.II. All painters are actors.III. Some gentle are not actorsIV. Some artist are not gentle.
Correct answer: A. None follows
- A. None follows
- B. Only I follows
- C. Only II follows
- D. Only III follows
- E. Only I and II follow
Explanation
None of the four conclusions is necessarily true. Hence "none follows" will be the answer.Let's analyze the given statements and conclusions:Statement A: "All artists are painters."Statement B: "All actors are gentle."Statement C: "All gentle are painters."Now, let's evaluate the conclusions:I. "No artist is actor." This conclusion is not valid based on the given statements. We don't have any information about the relationship between artists and actors.II. "All painters are actors." This conclusion is not valid either. The statements don't provide any direct link between painters and actors.III. "Some gentle are not actors." This conclusion is valid. Since all gentle are painters (according to Statement C), some gentle may not be actors.IV. "Some artist are not gentle." This conclusion is also valid. If all artists are painters (Statement A), and all gentle are painters (Statement C), then some artists (who are not gentle) may exist.In summary:Conclusions III and IV are valid.Conclusions I and II are not supported by the given statements.

About Logical Problems
Logical problems present several conditions about people, objects, events or choices and require their possible arrangements to be tested. They cover constraint-based reasoning, rankings, matching, grouping, scheduling and elimination, with attention to the difference between a complete solution and a possibility that merely satisfies one condition.
