In the law of syllogism, you use the information of two statements of premises to draw a conclusion or inference that includes part of the two statements. This implies in the case presented, the best conclusion using syllogism is "If it is Thursday, then Sara goes to the bank" because this combines the fact Sara gets a paycheck on Thursday, and every time she gets a paycheck she goes to the bank. Also, this is the only statement that uses the information of the two premises to give a realistic and accurate conclusion or inference.
