Look at the sentences given below (i) If the contract is valid, then X is liable. (ii) If X is liable, he will be bankrupt. (iii) If the bank loans him money, he will not go bankrupt. Select the statement that is consistent with the above statements

Correct Answer: The contract is valid and the bank will not loan him money.

Explanation:

From first two statements we can conclude: 'if the contract is valid then X would be bankrupt.' Statement 3 is 'If he goes bankrupt, then the bank will not loan him the money.' From above two statements, we have: If the contract is valid, then the bank will not loan him the money. This is reflected in option B.
