Options

AParis is in England and London is in France
BParis is not in France or London is not in England
CParis is in England or London is in France
DNone of these

Correct answer

B. Paris is not in France or London is not in England

Step-by-step solution

Let

p

: Paris is in France,

q

: London is in England (\therefore \quad) we have (p \wedge q) Its negation is (\sim(p \wedge q)=\sim p \vee \sim q) i.e., Paris is not in France or London is not in England.
