Only assumption I is implicit
Only assumption II is implicit
Either I or II is implicit
Neither I nor II is implicit E. Both I and II are implicit
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: B. Only assumption II is implicit
The statement “Detergents should be used to clean clothes” does not explicitly state that detergents form more lather or that they help to dislodge grease and dirt. However, it is reasonable to assume that detergents form more lather and help to dislodge grease and dirt, because these are two properties that are desirable in a cleaning agent. Therefore, assumption II is implicit in the statement. Assumption I is not implicit, because there are other ways to clean clothes besides using detergents. For example, clothes can be washed with soap or baking soda.
Here is a more detailed explanation of each option:
- A. Only assumption I is implicit. This option is incorrect, because assumption I is not implicit in the statement.
- B. Only assumption II is implicit. This option is correct, because assumption II is implicit in the statement.
- C. Either I or II is implicit. This option is incorrect, because assumption I is not implicit in the statement.
- D. Neither I nor II is implicit. This option is incorrect, because assumption II is implicit in the statement.
- E. Both I and II are implicit. This option is incorrect, because assumption I is not implicit in the statement.
