Problem 16 - Entrance Test

Some students passed. All who passed are eligible. Which conclusion necessarily follows?

Correct: B

From 'Some S are P' and 'All P are E', we can conclude 'Some S are E' by the chain rule. Since some students passed and all who passed are eligible, those students are also eligible. This is a valid syllogistic conclusion. The other options either reverse the relationship or make unsupported negative claims.
