    All Moon is Sky (A) + Some Sky is Sun (I) → Some Sun may not be Moon (O). Hence conclusion I follows. All Moon is Sky (A) + Some Sky is Sun (I) → Probable conclusion → Some Moon is Sun (I) + Some Sun is Earth (I) → Probable conclusion → Some Moon may be Earth (I). Hence conclusion II follows. Some Sky is Sun (I) + Some Sun is Earth (I) → Probable conclusion → Some Sky is Earth (I) + No Earth is Stars (E) → Probable conclusion → Some Sky may not Stars (I). Hence conclusion III follows.
