Q108

Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer : Statement : I can take you quickly from Kanpur to Lucknow by my cab but then you must pay me double the normal charges. Assumptions : I. Normally, it will take more time to reach Lucknow from Kanpur. II. People want to reach quickly but they will not pay extra money for it.

A.
Only assumption I is implicit
Answer
B.
Only assumption II is implicit
C.
Either I or II is implicit
D.
Neither I nor II is implicit
E.
Both I and II are implicit

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
Since the narrator asks for double charges to take the person quickly to Lucknow, it implies that normally it takes more time to reach Lucknow. So, I is implicit. Since one demands extra charges to reach the destination earlier than usual, the person in need would have to pay accordingly. So, II is not implicit.
