F1 Savita SSC 30-1-23 D43

Conclusions:

I. Some S are W → Follow (As all W are S. So, it is definitely true)

II. All S are D → Does not follow (As all W are S and no D is W. So, it is definitely false)

III. No W is D → Follow (As no D is W. So, it is definitely true)

∴ Here, Both conclusions I and III follow.

Hence, the correct answer is "Both conclusions I and III follow".
