The answer is 1 and 4 and either 2 or 3 because 2 and 3 are a complimentary pair. In syllogisms, complimentary pairs too are a part of the answer key.

Hence option D is correct.

Given answer is absolutely right. 2, 3 contradict each other so either.

According to me 1, 3 & 4 is the actual answer but there is.
No option for 1, 3 & 4 so we have left only 1 & 4 option so it is right.

There is either 2 or 3 given because a complementary pair is a type in which both conclusions are not true at a time and are not false at the same time.
So, from both conclusions, one has to be true while the other has to be wrong. When the answer given like either 1 follows or 2 follows, it is a case of complimentary syllogism.

Either is placed because of subject and predicate. If the subject and predicate for two options are given the same then the answer will be either.

Cases 1, 3 and 4 might be the correct answer.
So, why is it showing that the 2nd case follows, given that there is no mention of the relation between stickers and keys?
