Correct Answer: Neither conclusion I nor II follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statement is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion I: Some kings are not proud – From the Venn diagram, it is evident that there is no definite relation between kings and proud. Thus, this conclusion does not follow. Conclusion II: Some rich are not proud – It is a possibility that some parts of the circle representing rich are not overlapped by the circle representing proud. But this is not definite. Thus, this conclusion does not follow.
So, neither conclusion I nor II follows. Hence, the second option is correct.
