In you look near the end of the (very confusing) sentence (the actual question). It states that some jibits are gobs. Now to solve this, we need to find a statement which relates to the topic we are talking about.

We need to find a statement that involves jibits . The first statement that involves jibits is, in fact, the first statement; "all jibits are fliberties" .

Then we need to find a sentence that involves fliberties . The next statement that involves fliberties is the statement near the bottom which states that "all fliberties are goons" .

Then, we need to find a statement that involves goons . Then next statement that involves goons is the statement near the top which states that some "goons are gobs" .

If we bring it all together, it makes a lot of sense.

  • jibits are fliberties
  • fliberties are goons
  • goons are gobs

So that must mean gobs are some jibits are gobs, so our final answer for the statement "some jibits are gobs" is T r u e \boxed{True} !

Wrong! Some meants not the same as all. Change the words and we get If and only if all horses are mammals and some animals are carnivores but most horses are moons and all mammals are animals then some horses are carnivores. Some goons are gobs but this goons can be not jibits
