Sample Easy question 3

Which arrangement best represents 'Fruits', 'Mangoes' and 'Apples'?

  1. One big circle (Fruits) containing two separate, non-overlapping circles (Mangoes, Apples)

  3. Three separate circles with no overlap or nesting among them
  4. Two circles fully overlapping each other, inside a larger circle
Show answer

Answer: A. Mangoes and Apples are both distinct types of Fruits, so both are separate circles nested inside the Fruits circle.

  1. Two overlapping, one separate
  2. Three overlapping circles
  3. All separate circles
  4. One circle inside another

  1. One circle inside another
  2. All separate circles
  3. Three overlapping circles
  4. Two overlapping, one separate

What is the relationship between 'Animals', 'Dogs' and 'Cats'?

  1. Animals circle inside the Dogs circle and the Cats circle
  2. Two small non-overlapping circles (Dogs, Cats) inside a larger circle (Animals)
  3. All the three circles are identical to each other
  4. Dogs circle inside the Cats circle, which is inside Animals
Show answer

Answer: B. Both Dogs and Cats are subsets of Animals, but a dog cannot be a cat, so their circles don't overlap.
