Statement and Assumption Formula
Statement and Assumption formulas and a topic-wise mock test for logical reasoning placement exams like TCS NQT, Infosys, and Wipro. Revise, then practice.
Key Statement and Assumption Formulas
Statement and Assumption Basics
These questions test your ability to identify implicit assumptions in statements.
- Statement: A given fact or opinion
- Assumption: An implicit belief that supports the statement
- Conclusion: A logical inference from the statement
Types of Assumptions
Different types of assumptions you'll encounter:
- Positive Assumption: Supports the statement
- Negative Assumption: Contradicts the statement
- Neutral Assumption: Neither supports nor contradicts
- Implicit Assumption: Not directly stated but implied
Quick Solving Tips
Steps to solve assumption questions:
- Step 1: Read the statement carefully
- Step 2: Identify what the statement is trying to convey
- Step 3: Check if the assumption supports the statement
- Step 4: Eliminate options that don't logically connect
Common Patterns
Recognize these common patterns:
- Pattern 1: Statement about improvement → Assumption about current state
- Pattern 2: Statement about action → Assumption about benefit
- Pattern 3: Statement about comparison → Assumption about criteria
- Pattern 4: Statement about cause → Assumption about effect
