In the following question two statements are followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assume the two statements are true even if they are at variance with commonly known facts. Then pick the correct answer from the choices given below.
Statements: Some doctors are fools. Joshi is a doctor.
Conclusions:
I. Joshi is a fool.
II. Some fools are doctors.
From the given statements we can understand that foolish doctors are a subset of all doctors. So, if Joshi is doctor, he need not necessarily be a fool too. So, conclusion 1 doesn't follow.
Just like foolish doctors are a subset of all doctors, they are also a subset of all fools. So, some fools are doctors as well. Therefore, conclusion 2 follows.
