    Statements: All M are K. All K are

    J. All L are J. No L is a P. Conclusions:          I. No K is L. II. Some K are L. III. Some J are M. IV. Some L are M.
    A Only either I or II follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only either I or IV and II follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only either I or II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    All K are J(A) + Some J are  L(I) ⇒   No conclusion. Hence conclusion I and II does not follow but they will make a complementary pair. Hence either conclusion I or II follows. All M are K(A) + All K are J(A) ⇒ All rose are marigold(A) ⇒ Conversion ⇒   Some J are M(I). Hence conclusion III follows. All M are K(A) + All K are J(A) ⇒ All M are J(A) + Some J are L(I) ⇒ No conclusion. Hence conclusion IV does not follow.
