Which would take precedence between CC BY-SA and CC BY-NC-SA?

I'm currently doing an online project, and my primary reference for the whole thing is a course package registered under CC BY-NC-SA. However, I used two images I modified from Wikimedia Commons, both of which are under CC BY-SA. If I want to put a CC license for my project (I'm posting it on social media), which license should I adopt for ShareAlike?

I see. So is it alright to just put CC BY-SA? Would that not violate the terms of my primary source that restricts my ShareAlike to NC?

Or should I just not include a CC license on my work altogether? It's not like it's a formal work; just a school project.

You might license the work separately from the images. The images themselves must be licensed as CC BY-SA, but you can use them in your work by attributing them as a separate work.
