Induction uses specific examples to draw out general rules. The second statement and its converse are both false. For instance, 14 is an even number divisible by 7, and 3 is an odd number not divisible by 7 I can't actually see the third question. The link takes me to a login page
hold on
try and press on that
Mm, sorry, still no good. Maybe you can take a screenshot?

Oh, I guess just step 1 would be the premise, then, since it's the only information given at the outset.
How do you know for sure ?
Well, a premise by definition is the true statement on which an argument is based. So, it would have to come at the very beginning of the argument
so the first answer would be D, the 2nd is C and the third is A
AM I CORRECT ?
Well, I guess for the third question, it could be correct to say that everything but the conclusion is the premise. So, by that logic, I would choose b
But the other questions look fine
is that right ?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the last question is B
why would suggest B in the last question ?
Well, the question refers to "steps", not a single step. It doesn't really make sense to me that any single step is more of a premise than any of the others, which is why I think all the steps except the conclusion could technically be considered "premises" Then again, maybe the question is worded poorly, and step 1 is the only premise. I'd get a second opinion for this one
