The correct answer is: B. Only assumption II is implicit<\/strong><\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n
