Latest and easiest method to solve any syllogism problems is Raval's notation.Just note down statements in Raval's notation and deduce the conclusions at a simple glance.Here statements are K - S, S - St, StSt - P conclusion 1 P - St is correct by reverse reading of StSt - P,conclusion 2 and conclusion 3 forms a complimentary pair so either of them must be true, conclusion 4 S - K is simply reverse of statement K - S

By the rule that has been followed inthe previous sections, only option 1 and 4 is correct. Then why its coming to 2 or 3 as we have to conclude from all possible venn diagrams. So only option 1 and 4 is correct.
