You have to take the statements as true even if they are not based on commonly known facts. How to solve: The most effective and efficient method is to use a Venn diagram. Based on the given statements, you should draw all the possible diagrams and then solve each of these diagrams separately. Finally, the answer common to all the diagrams is taken as the correct one.
