Statement: “Safety lockers are the best place to preserve valuables.” Conclusions: I. Valuables are not safe at any place. II. There are few places better than safety lockers to preserve valuables. Which conclusion(s) logically follow(s)?

Introduction / Context:“Best place” asserts a comparative superlative among available options; it does not imply universal lack of safety elsewhere.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Safety lockers are superior for preserving valuables.
• Other places may still be safe, just not the “best.”

Concept / Approach:If X is the best, then there are none better; equivalently, there are at most equally good alternatives. Conclusion II paraphrases this idea. Conclusion I overreaches to “not safe anywhere,” which contradicts the comparative framing.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Final Answer:If only Conclusion II follows.
