1 medal and fan question Read the following two statements. Then use the Law of Syllogism to draw a conclusion. If a number is a multiple of 64, then it is a multiple of 8. If a number is a multiple of 8, then it is a multiple of 2. If a number is not a multiple of 2, then the number is not a multiple of 64. The number is a multiple of 2. If a number is a multiple of 64, then it is a multiple of 2. The number is a multiple of 8.

This is the pattern of: p-->q p ---- Therefore, q.

so its between B AND D

Directrix (directrix):

number is a multiple of 64 implies that it is a multiple of 8. number is a multiple of 8 implies multiple of 2 --------------------------------- Therefore, what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D

I HAVE KNOW CLUE

Directrix (directrix):

This is all we are given: If a number is a multiple of 64, then it is a multiple of 8. If a number is a multiple of 8, then it is a multiple of 2. We are not given any particular number. Putting the two implications together, then being a multiple of 64 means being a multiple of 8 AND being a multiple of 8 means being a multiple of 2. So, If a number is a multiple of 64, then the number is a multiple of what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

Directrix (directrix):

Would it not be this: If a number is a multiple of 64, then it is a multiple of 2.
