Question

Which line from the passage is an example of deductive reasoning? A) If a show gets good ratings, then it doesn't mean that show is good. B) If you are on a reality show, then you are making a fool of yourself. C) If you get on a reality show, then your mother should be proud of you. D) If you watch reality shows, then you are going to be more rude and aggressive.

Answer 1

Deductive reasoning is the process of reasoning from one or more statements to reach a logically certain conclusion. 

"C" is the best answer. The other choices don't have a very logical approach when it comes to a conclusion. If a show gets good ratings, it is probably a decent show. If you are on a reality show, you may or may not make a fool of yourself. Just because you watch reality TV shows, doesn't mean you are going to be naturally more aggressive. 

I hope this helps!
