Sarah and all of her siblings have brown hair. She concludes that if her parents have another child, he or she will have brown h
air. Is this an example of inductive or deductive reasoning? a) Deductive.
b) Inductive.
c) Both deductive and inductive.
d) Neither deductive nor inductive.
It is correct to say that this is an example of inductive reasoning, because the reasoning is based on a situational perception and not on actual logic. Sarah based her reasoning on a premise that if she and her brothers have brown hair, then if she had another brother, he would also have brown hair.
