Statements:
All aged people have Experience.
All Directors are aged.
Conclusions:
A. Some experienced people may not be aged.
B. Experienced aged people are Directors.
Answer: Option A
:
A
From the first statement, we can say that the aged people set is a sub-set of Experienced people set. From the second statement, we can say that the Director set is a sub-set of aged people set.
Consider Conclusion A:
∵ the people with experience are a super-set of those who are aged, there may be people who are experienced but not aged.
∴ Conclusion A follows.
There may be aged people ( all experienced ) who may not be directors.
∴ Conclusion B does not follow.
Hence, option A.
