Statements: No D is E. All F are S. Some F are E. Conclusions: I. Some S are E.   II. Some E are F. III. All F are E.
    A Both conclusions I and II follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both conclusions I and III follow. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Only conclusion III follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only conclusion II follows. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some F are E (I) → Conversion → Some E are F (I) + All F are S (A) → Some E are S (I) → Conversion → Some S are E (I). Hence conclusion I and II follows.
