In this question, a statement is given followed by two conclusions numbered i and ii. You have to assume everything in the statement 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 statement. Statement: Conclusions: Choose the appropriate one from the following options
Ameen divides all his property among his four children.
i) Ameen has only four children.
ii) Ameen will not take any share from his property.
(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.
The problem requires analyzing a given statement and two conclusions to determine which conclusion(s) logically follow from the statement.
Statement Analysis
The statement is: "Ameen divides all his property among his four children."
- This means the entirety of Ameen's property is distributed.
- The distribution is made specifically to four of his children.
Conclusion i Analysis
Conclusion i states: "Ameen has only four children."
- The statement says the property is divided among "his four children".
- This implies there are at least four children receiving property.
- However, the statement does not explicitly state that these four are the *only* children Ameen has in total. He might have more children to whom he is not distributing property in this instance.
- Therefore, conclusion i does not necessarily follow logically beyond reasonable doubt.
Conclusion ii Analysis
Conclusion ii states: "Ameen will not take any share from his property."
- The statement specifies that Ameen "divides all his property".
- The word "all" indicates that the entire property is given away.
- If all the property is distributed among his children, Ameen himself retains none of it.
- Therefore, conclusion ii logically follows from the statement.
Final Conclusion
Based on the analysis:
- Conclusion i does not necessarily follow.
- Conclusion ii logically follows.
Thus, only conclusion ii follows.
This corresponds to Option B in the conceptual list provided (the 3rd option in the user's list).
