Give answer : Statement : Of all the radio sets manufactured in India, the 'X' brand has the largest sale. Assumptions : I. The sale of all the radio sets manufactured in India is known. II. The manufacturing of no other radio set in India is as large as 'X' brand radio.

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:
Clearly, the comparison could not be made without knowing the sale of all the radio sets. So, I is implicit. The statement mentions only that the sale is largest and nothing is mentioned about the manufacture. So, II is not implicit.
