High School Placement Test (HSPT) 2025 – 400 Free Practice Questions to Pass the Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Green books are heavier than red books but not as heavy as orange books. If the first 2 statements are true then the conclusion is:

True

False

Uncertain

The conclusion is uncertain because while it provides a comparison of the weights of green, red, and orange books, it does not offer a definitive relationship involving all three in terms of weight or a clear statement about them. The first premise establishes that green books are heavier than red books, and the second states that green books are not as heavy as orange books. This means we can rank the books as follows: red books are the lightest, followed by green books, and then orange books as the heaviest. However, without additional information or a specific conclusion drawn from these statements, we cannot assert a true or false condition for a conclusion regarding their weights without making assumptions. Therefore, the most accurate position regarding the conclusion's validity is that it is uncertain.
