Symbolic representation of four logic gates are shown as

Pick out which ones are for AND, NAND and NOT gates, respectively.
A (ii), (iv) and (iii)
B (ii), (iii) and (iv)
C (iii), (ii) and (i)
D (iii), (ii) and (iv)

Detailed Solution

In the figure, (i) is the OR gate symbol (curved input side, pointed output).
(ii) is the AND gate symbol (flat input side and a semicircular, D-shaped output side with no bubble).
(iii) is the NOT gate symbol (a triangle with a small bubble at the output and a single input).
(iv) is the NAND gate symbol (the AND symbol followed by a small bubble at the output).
So AND, NAND and NOT gates are (ii), (iv) and (iii) respectively.
