Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
यदि ज्यादातर साड़ियाँ महंगी हैं, तो इसका अर्थ है कि कुछ साड़ियाँ निश्चित रूप से महंगी हैं।
यह नहीं कहा जा सकता कि सभी साड़ियाँ महंगी हैं या कि सस्ती साड़ियाँ उपलब्ध नहीं हैं।
इसलिए केवल निष्कर्ष IV (“उस दुकान की कुछ साड़ियाँ महंगी हैं”) तार्किक रूप से सही है।
If most sarees are expensive, it means some sarees are definitely expensive.
It does not mean all sarees are expensive, nor does it tell whether cheap sarees exist or not.
Hence, only Conclusion IV (“Some sarees in that shop are expensive”) logically follows.
