Question
In each question below is given a statement 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.
Give answer:
- (A) If only conclusion I follows
- (B) If only conclusion II follows
- (C) If either I or II follows
- (D) If neither I nor II follows and
- (E) If both I and II follow.
Statements: The average number of persons per household is 5 in urban areas whereas it is 7 in rural areas. The national average is 6.
Conclusions:
- The population per unit area in the rural areas is higher than in the urban areas.
- More persons live in the same household in the rural areas as compared to those in the urban areas.
Answer: Option B
The population per household and not the population per unit area is being talked about in the statement. So, only II follows while I does not.
