Q1:

Statement: Of all the radio sets manufactured in India, the 'X' brand has the largest sale. Assumptions:
  1. The sale of all the radio sets manufactured in India is known.
  2. The manufacturing of no other radio set in India is as large as 'X' brand radio.

A Only assumption I is implicit

B Only assumption II is implicit

C Either I or II is implicit

D Neither I nor II is implicit

E Both I and II are implicit

ANS:A - Only assumption I is implicit

Explanation: Clearly, the comparison could not be made without knowing the sale of all the radio sets. So, I is implicit. The statement mentions only that the sale is largest and nothing is mentioned about the manufacture. So, II is not implicit.
