Answer: A) Almost none of the students will be able to do this.

Explanation: Children even younger than 8-year-olds understand that money is important and is good to have so no one is very likely to argue for a reduction in their allowance.

Answer: A) Almost none of the students will be able to do this.

Explanation: since they all disagree to the argument, it's a likely possibility that none of them would want to tread that path as to argue something they don't want. They could only argue against the motion, but as it seems that was not the requirement.
