Latest Either/Neither MCQ Objective Questions
Either/Neither Question 1:
Three statements are given, followed by three conclusions numbered I, II and III. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the given statements.
Statements:
A. All tigers are jungles.
B. All elephants are jungles.
C. All jungles are trees.
Conclusions:
I. All tigers are trees.
II. No tigers are elephants.
III. Some tigers are elephants.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Either/Neither Question 1 Detailed Solution
The least possible venn diagram:
Conclusions:
I. All tigers are trees → True (As, All tigers are jungles, All elephants are jungles, All jungles are trees. so, All tigers are trees holds true)
II. No tigers are elephants → False ( As, All tigers are jungles, All elephants are jungles, so, No tigers are elephants is a possibility but not definite)
III. Some tigers are elephants → False ( As, All tigers are jungles, All elephants are jungles, so, Some tigers are elephants is a possibility but not definite)
Now, Conclusion II and Conclusion III are compliment to each other so, either case will follow.
Thus, Conclusion I and either conclusion II or conclusion III follow.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".
Either/Neither Question 2:
In this question, three statements are given, followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be
true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusion(s) logically
follows/follow from the statements.
Statements:
All grains are cereals.
Some cereals are fruits.
No fruit is a vegetable.
Conclusions:
I. All cereals can be vegetables.
II. All grains are fruits.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Either/Neither Question 2 Detailed Solution
Statements:
All grains are cereals.
Some cereals are fruits.
No fruit is a vegetable.
The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:
Conclusions:
I. All cereals can be vegetables. - False (because Some cereals are fruits and No fruit is a vegetable. so which part belongs to fruits cannot be vegetable)
II. All grains are fruits. - False (because there is no direct relation between grains and fruits. So it can be possible but not definite)
Hence, the correct answer is "Neither Conclusion I nor II follow".
Either/Neither Question 3:
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if
it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the
statements.
Statements:
Some Mirrors are Decoratives.
No Decorative is a Plant.
All Plants are Trees.
Conclusions:
(I) Some Mirrors are Plants.
(II) Some Decoratives are Trees.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Either/Neither Question 3 Detailed Solution
Given Statements:
Some Mirrors are Decoratives.
No Decorative is a Plant.
All Plants are Trees.
The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:
Conclusions:
(I) Some Mirrors are Plants. - False (because there is no direct relation between mirror and plants so it can be possible but not definite)
(II) Some Decoratives are Trees. - False (because there is no direct relation between Decoratives are Trees so it can be possible but not definite)
Hence, the correct answer is "Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows".
Either/Neither Question 4:
In this question, three statements are given, followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be
true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusion(s) logically
follows/follow from the statements.
Statements:

All dancers are engineers.
Some engineers are beautiful.
Conclusions:
I. All teachers are beautiful.
II. Some dancers are beautiful.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Either/Neither Question 4 Detailed Solution
Statements:
All teachers are dancers.
All dancers are engineers.
Some engineers are beautiful.
The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:
Conclusions:
I. All teachers are beautiful. - False (because there is no direct relation given between teachers and beautiful, so it can be possible but not definite)
II. Some dancers are beautiful. - False (because there is no direct relation given between dancers and beautiful, so it can be possible but not definite)
Hence, the correct answer is "Neither conclusion I nor II follows".
Either/Neither Question 5:
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to
be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which conclusion/s logically follow/s from the given
statements.
Statements:
All beaches are sand.
Some deserts are sand.
All mountains are rocky.
Conclusions:
(I) At least some beaches are desert.
(II) At least some sands are rocky.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Either/Neither Question 5 Detailed Solution
The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as shown below :
Conclusions:
I. At least some beaches are desert → Does not follow (As all beaches are sand and some deserts are sand. So it is possible but not definite.)
II. At least some sands are rocky → Does not follow (As all beaches are sand, some deserts are sand and all mountains are rocky. So it is possible but not definite.)
∴ Here, Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Either/Neither Question 8 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as shown below :
Conclusions:
I. Some R are not W → Does not follow (As some W are F and some R are F. So, as there is no direct negative or cross relation between W and R therefore it is definitely false)
II. No W is R → Does not follow (As some W are F and some R are F. So, as there is no direct negative or cross relation between W and R therefore it is definitely false)
∴ Here, Neither conclusion follows.
Hence, the correct answer is "Neither conclusion follows".

Either/Neither Question 9 Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:
Conclusions:
I. Some books are pens → Does not Follow (As, all pens are newspapers, some newspapers are novels and no novel is a book. So, it is possible but not definitely true.)
II. Some novels are pens → Does not Follow (As, all pens are newspapers and some newspapers are novels. So, it is possible but not definitely true.)
III. No book is a pen → Does not Follow (As, all pens are newspapers, some newspapers are novels and no novel is a book . So, as no direct negative or cross relation given between book and pen therefore it is definitely false)
