Help With a Puzzle Please.

I would say a.
after that it says none of the following.

But what do I know.

From The Guardian - Mon 22 Jul 2024:
Solution

This is a multiple choice question with no information given. Nevertheless it is possible to deduce the answer. If (d) is true then (b) is true and so (d) is false after all. Since (d) is false, (a) is false. If (c) is true, then (e) is true since we know that (d) is not, and hence (c) is actually false. Since (c) is false, all those following are false: that is, (e) is false. Hence, (b) is true.

Now we have to check that all the true and false specifications are consistent; otherwise, there will be no solution to the problem. This is easily done, and so the answer is (b).

It states "nothing has been omitted here" so the answer isn't an omission, it's one of the answers a) - e)

Oh I thought the OP was the one stating nothing has been omitted.

It would mean the same.

Surely the question is “How many of these statements are true?”

I agree, “some of the above” follows the pattern.

Some of the above ?

Yes, I would say this seeing as ‘some of the following’ has been mentioned but not ‘some of the above’.
