Question

Consider the following statements:

$P_1$: Sachin Tendulkar gets out before the tea break only if Ishant Sharma comes out to bat.

$P_2$: Ishant Sharma won’t come out to bat, if Lasith Malinga is not called to bowl.

$P_3$: Sachin Tendulkar got out before the tea break.

Which of the following does not follow from $P_1, P_2, P_3?$

• A. Lasith Malinga is called to bowl
• B. Ishant Sharma come out to bat.
• C. Sachin Tendulkar got out after the tea break.
• D. None of these.

I am getting D.

And its Logic format will be $\{(S \rightarrow I) \wedge(I \rightarrow L) \wedge S\} \rightarrow X$

Keeping A, B, C option as X one by one, and all follows, thus option D is correct but given answer is C.

If we have a look C is not following as C states Sachin got out after tea break ...

---

That's why D should be the correct answer.

They are asking which is not following.. so as C is not following I guess C is the correct ans in this case then..

Ok so in $P_3$ word used is "Before" and in option C it is given "After" which is the negation of Before, therefore, Option C is the correct answer.

Thanks rectified mistake @anjali007.
