Question
In the following 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.Statement :Parents are prepared to pay any price for an elite education to their children.Conclusions :I. All parents these days are very well off.II. Parents have an obsessive passion for perfect development of their children through good schooling.
Solution 1
Based on the statement given, we cannot conclusively say that "All parents these days are very well off" (Conclusion I). The statement only mentions that parents are prepared to pay any price for an elite education, but it does not specify that all parents are capable of doing so or that they are all very well off. Therefore, Conclusion I does not logically follow beyond a reasonable doubt.
On the other hand, the statement does imply a strong desire on the part of parents for their children to receive an elite education, which could be interpreted as "Parents have an obsessive passion for perfect development of their children through good schooling" (Conclusion II). Therefore, Conclusion II does seem to logically follow from the statement.
So, only Conclusion II logically follows beyond a reasonable doubt from the information given in the statement.
Solution 2
Based on the statement given, we cannot conclusively
