    Some A are B

    All C are E

    No B is a D

    Only a few E are A

    Conclusions:

    I) Some A are not D

    III) Some C are not A

    A Only I follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Only I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only III follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None follows Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some A are B (I) + No B is a D (E) → Some A are not D (O). Hence conclusion I follows. Only a few E are A → All A may be E (A). Hence conclusion II does not follow. All C are E (A) + Only a few E are A (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion III does not follow.
