    E None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    From I. Some Organisations are Companies (I) + All Companies are Delegations (A) → Some Organisations are Delegations (I). Hence conclusion I follows. All Companies are Delegations (A) + Some Delegations are Selections (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow. From II. Few Delegations are Companies (I) + No Company is a Selection (E) → Some Delegations are not Selections (O) + Some  Selections are Organisations (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion I does not follow. No Company is a Selection (E) → Conversion → No Selection is a Company (E). Hence conclusion II does not follow. From III. Some Organisations are Companies (I) + All Companies are Delegations (A) → Some Organisations are Delegations (I). Hence conclusion I follows. All Companies are Delegations (A) + All Delegations are Selections (A) → All Companies are Selections (A) → Conversion → Some Selections are Companies (I). Hence conclusion II follows. From IV. Some Organisations are Companies (I) + All Companies are Delegations (A) → Some Organisations are Delegations (I). Hence conclusion I follows. Only a few Selections are Organisations (I) + Some Organisations are Companies (I) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow.
