MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

30 sec • 1 pt

All bachelors are unmarried men. John is an unmarried man. Therefore, John is a bachelor.

This is an inductive argument.

This is a deductive argument.

Answer explanation

This example illustrates deductive reasoning by starting with a general premise, ‘all bachelors are unmarried men,’ and then shrinking the statement to apply to the particular or specific instance.

In this case: John is a man, and he is not married; therefore, John is a bachelor. The conclusion is indisputable, unlike in inductive reasoning, where the conclusions are just educated guesses.
