Question

Assume the first two statements are true. Is the final statement: 1) True, 2) False,
or 3) Uncertain based on the information provided?
Julius knows Terry.
Terry knows Jill.
Jill does not know Julius.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

True because Julius know Terry but not Jill

Answer 2

The final statement is uncertain based on the information provided. Thus, the answer will be option 3.

• In the first statement, it is given that Julius knows Terry.
• In the second statement, it is given that Terry knows Jill.
• The third statement says that Jill does not know Julius.
• In the above-given statements, the relationship between Jill and Julius remains unclarified.
• We know that Julius knows Terry and that Terry knows Jill. The information provided is not enough to clearly ascertain the relationship between Jill and Julius.
• Since Julius knows Terry and Terry knows Jill, it is possible that Jill might know Julius but it is also possible that both of them don't know each other.
• Thus, the final statement is uncertain based on the information provided.
• So, the answer will be option 3.
