Consider the following statements: 1) All X-brand cars parked here are white. 2) Some of them have radial tyre

Question

Consider the following statements: 1) All X-brand cars parked here are white. 2) Some of them have radial tyres. 3) All X-brand cars manufactured after 1986 have radial tyres. 4) All cars are not X-brand. Which one of the following conclusions can be drawn from the above statements?

Accepted Answer

To arrive at the correct conclusion, we analyze the statements logically:

Statement 1 tells us that every X-brand car in the parking lot is white. 
Statement 2 tells us that some of those X-brand cars in the parking lot have radial tyres.

When we combine these two facts, it logically follows that there must be at least some white X-brand cars with radial tyres parked there. This directly supports option B.

The other options are incorrect because:
A is wrong because statement 4 says there are cars other than X-brand present, and we do not know their color.
C is wrong because the statements do not provide information about the tyre types of non X-brand cars.
D is wrong because we do not have enough data to determine the total quantity or proportion of cars manufactured before or after 1986.
