Hi I have a confusion regarding the question. According to the question,
Statement : No A is a B.
Conclusion : No B is a A.

It's always true?

Satyanandam said:   9 years ago
Actually, the conclusion is NO WALL IS A WINDOW, But from statement 1 ALL WINDOWS ARE DOORS.

So we can conclude it as NO WALL IS A DOOR.

Don't quickly jump into conclusion after solving consider the options given below and then choose wisely.
