Explanation

Conclusion 1: 60% of the students do not have two-wheelers. This conclusion cannot be drawn from the given data. While it's true that 60% of students play cricket, and the remaining 40% play football (each with a two-wheeler), the information doesn't specify whether any cricketers have two-wheelers. Therefore, we cannot conclude that 60% of students lack two-wheelers.

Conclusion 2: No cricketer has a two-wheeler. This conclusion also cannot be drawn. The data doesn't provide information about whether cricketers have two-wheelers. It only states that all football players have two-wheelers.

Conclusion 3: Cricket players do not play football. This conclusion cannot be drawn either. The information doesn't specify whether cricketers play football. It only mentions that students who don't play cricket play football.

Since all three conclusions cannot be drawn from the given data, the correct answer is: D. 1, 2, and 3
