Direction: The logic problems in this set present you with three true statements : Fact 1, Fact 2, and Fact 3. Then, you are given three more statements (labeled I, II, and III), and you must determine which of these, if any, is also a fact. One or two of the statements could be true; all of the statements could be true; or none of the statements could be true. Choose your answer based solely on the information given in the first three facts.
-
Fact 1 : Pictures can tell a story.
Fact 2 : All storybooks have pictures.
Fact 3 : Some storybooks have words.
If the first three statements are facts, which of the following statements must also be a fact?
I. Pictures can tell a story better than words can.
II. The stories in storybooks are very simple.
III. Some storybooks have both words and pictures.
-
- I only
- II only
- III only
- None of the statements is a known fact.
Correct Option: C
Statements I and II are not supported by the facts. Statement III is true because if all storybooks have pictures and only some have words, then some storybooks have both words and pictures.
