Statement: 1. All teachers are educated. 2. No uneducated person is respected. Conclusions: I. All teachers are respected. II. No educated person is uneducated.

1. Only I follows
2. Only II follows
3. Both I and II follow
4. Neither I nor II follows

Correct answer: Only II follows

Solution

From "No uneducated person is respected," we can infer that respected persons are not uneducated, which supports conclusion II. However, "All teachers are educated" does not imply that all teachers are respected, because no statement connects teachers with respect. So only II follows.
