There is a method for Euler circle i.e. if there are more than 1 diagrams then always intersection is taken into account.

Please I need some more techniques to solve these problems. I was confusing with venn diagrams. Can anyone explain me.

Preethi said:   1 decade ago
Yes, I too thinking that conclusion 2 is correct. If somebody got exactly the correct meaning, please explain it here

Conclusion should be true in diagram 1 and 2, but conclusion does not follow in diagram 1, so how conclusion 2 true ?

Sanjana said:   9 years ago
All the three diagrams must fulfil the conclusions? Is it true? Then only it can be considered as a conclusion?

Option D is the right answer because keys is also part of the bat so some watches should be key, no doubt.

Answer is both A and B are true. If all lock is key then it can be some key is lock (not all key is lock).

Option A is the answer.

Because some bats are locks and some watches are keys according to the diagram.

The answer should be option no. 1, because from 2nd and 3rd figure, some watches are keys also follows!

Sri said:   1 decade ago
According to the third figure some portion of watches are keys.

So, Conclusion 2 is also correct.
