Detailed Solution
IV is most basic as it produces resonance stabilized conjugate acid after protonation at sp2 nitrogen. III is more basic than both I and II as carbonyl is shared by both nitrogen's lone pair in resonance which decreases the extent of delocalization of nitrogen's lone pair. Between I and II, II is slightly more basic due to + I effect of CH3.
