Syllogisms Tricks with Examples CompleteExplanation [How to Solve]

Hi friends Syllogisms is one of the easy to win questions in reasoning, but we have seen so manyaspirants are finding difficult in solving these questions. Usually Venn diagram method (Easy) isused to solve these but they will consume time in case of NO/Possibility conclusion cases. Sohere we are explaining the concept of Syllogism with some examples by using some simple rules.First and foremost have a quick glance at the Main rules to solve Syllogism Problems…

All+All=AllAll+No=NoAll+Some=No Conclusion

Some+All=SomeSome+No= Some NotSome+Some= No Conclusion

No +All = Some Not (Reversed)No+Some=Some Not (Reversed)No+No=No ConclusionSome Not /Some Not Reversed +Anything = No Conclusion

If the conclusion is in “Possibility” case then these rules must be applied.

If All A are B then we can say - Some B are Not A is a PossibilityIf Some B are Not A then we can say - All A are B is a PossibilityIf Some A are B then we can say - All A are B is a Possibility All B are A is a Possibility

That is

All <=> Some Not ReversedSome => AllNO Conclusion = Any Possibility is true

When it is implemented (In case of Conclusion from Single Statement)

1. All => Some that means if All A are B then Some B are A is true.2. Some <=> Some that means if Some A are B then Some B are A is true.3. No <=> No that means if No A is B then NO B is A is true

Inorder to solve Syllogism there are two types:

1. Cross Cancellation2. Vertical Cancellation

Let us see about Cross Cancellation with example:Example 1:Statements:

1. All Cows are Parrots2. All Parrots are Birds3. No Bird is Monkey

Conclusions:

1. No Parrot is Monkey2. Some Cows being Monkey is Possibility

We know you might be able to solve it by using Venn diagram method that's good but this methodwon't help or a bit tough when it comes to No or possibility Conclusions

Here is explanationLets take 1st conclusion, we have to make relation between Parrot and Monkey so we will takestatements 2 and 3.

This is called Cross Cancellation , We have cancelled Bird from Bird so we have left with(ALL+NO) rule, and that leads to No Parrot is Monkey So Conclusion I is TRUE.

In second statement we have Cow and Monkey so we will need to make relation between them.

How to use these Syllogism Rules to solve questions?

Best of Best

For this we need to take all 3 statements.

Now we have left with ((All+All)+NO) that is No Cow is Monkey . We don’t have any rule to convertthis statement into Possibility so second conclusion is FALSE

I think we are clear with above explanation now see about Vertical CancellationExample 2:Statements:

1. Some Mails are Messages2. All Updates are Messages

Conclusion:

1. All Mails Being Update is a Possibility2. No Update is Mail

Lets take Conclusion “All Mails Being Update is a Possibility” that means we have to make relationbetween Mails and Updates

This is called Vertical cancellation. In this case direction of adding first phrase will be reversed i.eInAbove example the conclusion will be All+Some = No Conclusion.

IF we get No Conclusion in case of Possibility then according to Rules in Possibility case will bedefinitely true. So Conclusion 1 follows and Conclusion 2nd Don’t.

So far we have seen how to deal with All, Some, Some Not and No now let us see about SomeNot in reversed condition.

What is Some Not (Reversed)?To explain this let’s take a Simple example

1. No A is B2. All B is C

So the conclusion you get for this will be as follows(No+All) A is C = (Some Not Reversed) A is CThereforeSome C are Not A.

Finally my advice is...Use this only if there are No or Possibility conclusions by following the above rules else you canhappily use Venn Diagram method (If you find this method useful though). Don't get more confusedfor easy topics by doing unnecessary faults.

Lastly feel free to ask us if you have any doubts....Enjoy Reading

Update:Hi guys recently I have found one rule and some terms that are asking in tests these days which Iintend to share with you guys...

"No" statement can be converted into two types1. Some Not2. No (interchanging Subject and Predicate)

Confused???Let me explain this with an ExampleSuppose statement is given as No Professor is Student then this statement can be valid to takeas1. Some Professor are not Student2. No Student is Professor

cleared now.

Another update is now a days in exams they are mentioning None, Only, Almost etc instead of All,Some in both statements and conclusions so I'm listing the terms here.

All => Every, Each, Any, None, Not a single, OnlyRemaining will be treated as followsSome, Many, a few, Quite a few, Not many, Very little, Most of, Almost, Generally, Often,Frequently, AtleastNote: As far as I know these terms are very rare for Bank Exams.

Hi Lalita,No need to get confused every method is meant to solve quickly, here you can followany method but the thing is time consumption... Venn diagram takes a bit more timeincase of No and Possibilities comparing to Syllogism Rules I mentioned. If there aren'tany NO, Possibilities and you feel Venn model is easy you can use that...All the BestRegardsHarshiniPlease do hit LIKE and Share if you want to support me...

how would we apply vertical cancellation to this kind of question:

all calenders are papers.some calenders are animals.

conclusion: 1) some papers are animals 2) some animals are papers

according to venn diagram both are true but according to vertical cancellation no conclusionshould be the answer as all+some=no conclusion. should i reverse the phrase here as well? is there any difference in considering the order ofphrases when it comes to right vertical cancellation or left vertical cancellation?

Reply

DreamJob Adda April 23, 2015 1:10 p.m.

Hi,I already mentioned in the above explanation USE these rules only in cases of NO andPossibilities Cases to avoid confusions.Anyway here in vertical cancellation as mentioned above you have to take Some + All = Someso that you will get Some Animals are Papers = 2nd conclusionand Some can be reversed so thatSome animals are papers = Some papers are animals is true

Hi,

I'd like to appreciate the efforts you put in imparting such useful imformation about syllogism. I'msure a lot of people will benefit from it.

I have a query and i'll be grateful if you could provide the detailed explanation of the technique thatyou will use in solving it.

Q: All Parrots are FlowersNo Flower is a carrotAll carrots are fruits

Conclusion: Some Flowers being fruits is a possibility.

Is the above conclusion true or false?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks in advance.

DreamJob Adda April 25, 2015 5:27 p.m.

Hi, sorry for the delay replyBy cross cancelling 2nd and 3rd you will get Some fruits are not flowersDon't get confused here this is a tricky one, they have asked Possibility condition.From above the conclusion it is clear that it must be Some Not rightso in these type of cases if possibility is given in any one of these Some or NotSay for example "Some Flowers being fruits is a possibility" or "No Flowers being fruitsis a possibility" then it is "True"...(Remember only incase of Possibility)if it is not given it it do not followssay "Some Flowers are fruits" this is "False"

Hi Praveen,In first conclusion Poor and Intelligent are taken so first you have to take A and B, bycancelling Rich you will get Some poor are doctors as you see some + some = noconclusion 1st one is false.In 2nd conclusion Intelligent and doctors are taken if you do vertical cancellation Some+ All = Some Intelligent are Richby rule in possibility Some A are B => All A are B is a Possibility or All B are A is aPossibilityso 2nd follows

This method is incorrect. In the case of example 2 ...the one with mails and msgs...answer shouldbe none follow. Because the statement it self says some mails are msgs therefor all mails beingmsgs is not a possibility.

Hi Saurabh,Q1:Some apples are fruits + No fruit is vegetable = some apple are not vegetables assome not appears 1st conclusion will not follow

If we take All potatoes are vegetables + No vegetable is fruits = No potato is fruitTherefore Neither follows.

Q2:All + No = No potato is fruit => No fruit is potato 1st followsBy converting 3rd we get Some apples are fruits (don't care about Atleast).So Both Follows.

2. Just reverse the 2nd statement you will get it.

Hi Saketh,I have already explained this in above post anyway here it is.To explain this let’s take a Simple exampleNo A is BAll B is C

So the conclusion you get for this will be as follows(No+All) A is C = (Some Not Reversed) A is CThereforeSome C are Not A.

the subject and predicate will interchange their places...

Hello mam thanks a ton for this wonderful post .Actually i want to ask a prob i often found whilesolving syllogs. My prob is whenevr we are solving some+some type statement it gives noconclusion acrding to your rules. but some if we have 3 statements and while solving them wehave to make use off all those three frst 2 statements with SOME on cancellation gives NOCONLUSION. so how can we use that no conclusion with SOME of third statement ???? hope uunderstand.. u can see below problem of same type..All bottles are cups.Some cups are jugs.Some jugs are plates.Conclusions:I. Some plates are cups.II. Some plates are bottles.Ill Some cups are papers.IV. Some bottles are papers. -(1) Only III and IV follow(2) Only I and II follow(3) Only I and III follow(4) Only II and IV follow

Hi Hema, welcome to my blog...If question consists of 3 statements doesn't mean you have make use of all 3 for everyconclusion. You have to consider only those statements which are useful to getconclusions.Some times answers will be appeared only using 1 or 2 statements also.

Well coming to your example, it is not correct as "Papers" is not given in question.Also 1st and 2nd conclusions do not follows.

Hi Gaurav,First convert Only = All and Most, Many = SomethenFor 1st conclusion All medicines are tablets + Some tablets are tonic = no conclusionSo it do not follows - similarly for 2nd conclusion...

As per rule Some => All Possibility 3rd conclusion followsand there is no conclusion for 4th, also Possibility is given so it follows

Hi Vivek, Thanks for commenting...1. All + No = No nights are evenings => No evenings are nights True2. No + All = Some day are Not noon => All Day being Noon is a Possibility(3&4). Some + No = Some papers are not cardbut in these cases if conclusions has Some and No with same subject and Predicatesthen Either or is true5. No + All does not give No so it is False6. No + No = No conclusion so FalseAll the Best.Vivek please hit Like and Share with your friends about this blog...Thanks

No bank is a market. Some markets are offices.All restaurants are offices. Some banks are rooms.

Conclusions: I. Some markets are not rooms. II. Some offices are not banks.III. Some restaurants are markets. IV. Some rooms are restaurants.

(1) Only I and II follow (2) Only II follows(3) Only I, II and III follow (4) Only I and III follow (5) None of thesesolve this here ans is 2 but for the conlusion 3 we take statement 2 and 3 then there will be no conclusion because ofvertical cancellation all+some= no conclusion i want to know that if we take 3 and 2 in order thenby vertical cancellation we will get some+all=some then conclusion 3 would be true? please make it clear.

No Akanksha you should not change the order like that...You should only 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 or 1 to 3 like this not in any other way if you do so youwill never find correct answer for any syllogism...and for your previous doubt I forgot to remove the above explanation for Autumnproblem which led you into confusion don't let it bother you...When is your test anyway?

Hema Saini June 20, 2015 10:45 p.m.

Hi Hema,1. Take 3 and 4 statements as they mentioned Plate and CupSome + Some = No answer so it do not follows

2. You have to use 2, 3 and 4 for this butAll + Some also does not give any answer so it is also not true.

3. Take 1 and 2 you get All Papers are Cups => Some cups are papers

4. Convert 1st statement All papers are bottles => Some bottles are papers

So Only 3 and 4 follows

hello mam/sir

my name is niket.my doubt is how to implement your logic in this qstn as i don't know the venn diagram method.soplease explain me with ur logic how to solve this.Here all the 3 names (teacher,professors,lecturer) are used together in conclusion in single statement.

Some teachers are professors.Some lecturers are teachers.

Conclusions:I. All teachers as well as professors beinglecturers is a possibility.II. All those teachers who are lecturers arealso professors.1) if only conclusion I follows.2) if only conclusion II follows.3) if either conclusion I or conclusion II follows.4) if neither conelusion I nor conclusion II follows.5) if both conclusions I and II follow.

Hi Niket,Lets see conclusion wise

1. From 1st Some teachers are professors there are possibilities that All teachers are professorsAll professors are teachersSimilarly, from 2nd Some lecturers are teachers there is a possibility that All teachers are lecturersSo from All professors are teachers + All teachers are lecturers we get All professors are lecturers.Therefore All teachers and professors are lecturers is a possibility.Note: All this is happened because they mentioned about POSSIBILITY herein 1st conclusion so it follows

2. In 2nd conclusion they didn't gave possibility case so it is not possible to getconclusion that is why it doesn not follow.

Tip: Some + Some => No conclusion which leads any possibility to TRUE

hii mam/siri am Niket.what i understood from your explanation is as follows.if i understood wrong let me know.

1. From 1st Some teachers are professors we can conclude followingAll teachers being professors is a possiblity.All professors being teachers is a possibilitySimilarly, from 2nd Some lecturers are teachers we can conclude followingAll teachers being lecturers is a possibility.All lecturers being teacher is a possibility.So from All professors being teachers is a possibility+ All teachers being lecturers being apossibility we getAll professors being lecturers is a possibility.(All+All=ALL)Therefore All teachers and professors are lecturers is a possibility.

is there anyone to answer this?if conclucion is in possibility, and both the conclusion follows all the rule of either or,then will it be considered as a 'either or' case or neither 'nor case'?

Hi,Do you have any example for this???

Anonymous June 27, 2015 8:18 p.m.

Statement:- All A are B

Conclusion:-A) Some B are A is a possibility.B) Some B are not A.

Look,Here both the conclusion are wrong,both have same subject and predicate,first one is positive and second one is negative,and of course its not a case of 'All' and 'No' type.

Hi,1. All tea are coffee cannot be reversed so it is not follows2. Can be is a possibility case it is also not follows3. All cool drinks are thumps up => some thumps up are cool drinks so it followsOnly 3 follows which is not given here so None of these is correct
