Directions
In the question below are given two statements followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements disregarding commonly known facts.
Statements:
Some Fire is air

Correct answer
Only I follow
Why this answer is correct
The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows
Conclusions:
I. Some water can be Fire → True (as there is no relation between water and Fire, so it is possible. Hence, Some water can be Fire is true).
II. Some Fire is water → False (as there is no relation between Fire and water so it is possible nut it's not definite. Hence, Some Fire is water is false).
Hence, Only I follow is the correct answer.
