Statement:
Despite heavy security, a theft occurred in the museum.
Conclusions:
I. The security guards were involved in the theft.
II. Heavy security is not a 100% guarantee against theft.
Which conclusion(s) logically follow?
A. Both I and II follow
B. Only conclusion I follows
C. Neither I nor II follows
D. Only conclusion II follows
Answer: Option D
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
The statement simply states a fact that theft occurred despite security. Assuming guard involvement (I) is speculation. However, it logically proves that heavy security does not entirely eliminate the possibility of theft (II).
Explanation:
I is a generalization. II is already given ('the school bus'). Neither new conclusion is drawn; both restatements or generalizations. Usually such questions: I does not follow (all). II is just repeating. So neither.
