Conclusions: Some digits are numbers. Some odds being evens is a possibility. Some digits are not composites is a possibility. Some numbers are composites.
    A All evens are numbers. Some numbers are odds. All odds are composites. All composites are digits. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Some evens are numbers. Some numbers are odds. All odds are composites. No composites are digits. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C All evens are numbers. Some numbers are odds. All odds are not composites. No composites are digits. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D No evens are numbers. Some numbers are odds. No odds are composites. All composites are digits. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All evens are numbers. All numbers are odds. No odds are composites. No composites are digits. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some numbers are odds (I) + All odds are composites (A) ⇒ Some numbers are composites (I) + All composites are digits (A) ⇒ Some numbers are digits ⇒ conversion ⇒ Some digits are numbers (I). All evens are numbers (A) + Some numbers are odds (I) ⇒ Probable conclusion ⇒ Some odds may be evens(I). All composites are digits (A) ⇒ Probable conclusion ⇒ Some digits are not composites (O). Some numbers are odds. (I) + All odds are composites (A) ⇒ Some numbers are composites (I).
