Question

If some green are blue and no blue is white, which of the following is correct?

Options

A)
No white is green
B)
No green is white
C)
No white is blue
D)
Some green are not white

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

This question is asking about the relationship between three colors: green, blue, and white. The first part of the question tells us that some green are blue, which means that there are some things that are both green and blue. The second part of the question tells us that no blue is white, which means that there is no overlap between blue and white.

Based on this information, we need to determine which statement is correct.

Option A says "No white is green." This statement is not correct because we know that some green are blue, so there are some things that are both green and blue.

Option B says "No green is white." This statement is not correct because we don't have any information about the relationship between green and white.

Option C says "No white is blue." This statement is correct because we know that no blue is white, so there is no overlap between blue and white.

Option D says "Some green are not white." This statement is correct because we know that some green are blue, and since no blue is white, there are some things that are green but not white.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option D: Some green are not white.
