Discussion
Read the following statements labelled as Assertion (A) and Reason (R) and indicate your answer by using the codes given below :
Assertion (A) : In deduction, conclusion is derived from a premise.
Reason (R) : People reason by using deduction as well as induction.
Codes :
Answer: B
Both statements are correct, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). In deduction a conclusion is drawn from premises, so (A) is true, and people do reason by deduction as well as induction, so (R) is true.
The fact that people use both kinds of reasoning does not explain why a deductive conclusion is derived from a premise, so (R) is not an explanation of (A). The second option is correct.
