Question

Explain the difference between a fact and an opinion. Give one example for each.

Answer 1

A fact is something that can be proven true and an opinion is something that you think, it doesn't have to be right and is more of a preference. In summary, fact is objective reality and opinion is a subjective statement.

FACT "Pringles aren't actually potato chips." OBJECTIVE REALITY - Pringles aren't made of sliced potatoes, they're made from dehydrated potato flakes pressed together to make a parabolic shape.

OPINION "George Crum's original potato chips were probably better than the ones made today." SUBJECTIVE REALITY - Whoever says this has probably never found a potato chip they liked, and doesn't know that he created them by accident, and they were probably burnt so they didn't taste as good.

Hope this helps. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Valentines Day and Black History Month! :-)

Answer:
