Question 80

Logical Reasoning Statement and Conclusions Easy

Crossroads, a wellness centre allows a member to spend a maximum of one hour in a meditation hall. Shailaja has been in a meditation hall for at least one and a half hours. Which of the following is a valid conclusion if only the above information is used?

(A) If Shailaja is meditating at Crossroads, she will not be allowed entry the next time
(B) Shailaja is not meditating in the meditating hall at Crossroads
(C) The meditation hall is not spacious to accommodate all the members
(D) If Shailaja is not violating the wellness centre rule, she is not meditating at Crossroads
View Dynamic Solution & Explanation
Correct Solution: Option D

Step-by-step Solution:

The rule states that a maximum of one hour is allowed in the Crossroads meditation hall. Shailaja has been meditating for at least 1.5 hours. If Shailaja is abiding by the rules (not violating them), she cannot possibly be at Crossroads, because being there for 1.5 hours would inherently violate their 1-hour rule. Thus, she must be meditating somewhere else.
