Statement: "Computer education should start at schools itself."
Assumptions:
- Learning computers is easy.
- Computer education fetches jobs easily.
Answer: Option

Clearly, computer education can be started at the school level only if it is easy. So, I is implicit. In the statement, nothing is mentioned about the link between jobs and computer education. So, II is not implicit.

I do agree that option (D) should be the correct one. But can anyone clarify how is option (a) correct?

Math is not easy it is available in school right? how can one say if it is easy or not?
Wrong answer, it should be neither.

I have to agree with everyone here.
The answer should be D. If it was easy, it wouldn't need to be taught. Quantum Mechanics isn't easy, but guess where that's taught. The entire reason for going to school is to be taught something, easy or not.

May be only primary computer education is easy... you cannot say " Learning computers is easy " .

Nursery schools are also schools but one cannot add computers to their curriculum.

None of the statements are implicit.

Neither is implicit because it could also happen that it is important so it should be taught in schools. Not its easy.

Agree answer is D. Could argue that because learning computers is NOT easy we must start education in school.

Easy doesn't mean that it should be taught in school. No argument is implicit.
