2. The following two statements are true. Tom is older than David. David is older than Aaron. Which conclusion can be reached by deductive reasoning? A.Tom and Aaron are the same age. B.Tom is older than Aaron. C.Tom is older than David. D.Aaron is older than Tom. I think the answer is B, because according to the information given, Aaron < David < Tom So "Tom is older than Aaron." but can C also be the answer? I mean it's true that "Tom is older than David" but the statement says the same thing...
