Logical Reasoning

MCQ - 173-8125

Mr. Tibbitts won’t teach classes during the summer and since he won’t, neither will Ms. Mondragon. If Mr. Mondragon and Mr. Parnelli both decide not to teach classes during the summer, then Professor Revlon will have to teach summer classes, which will take him away from his administrative duties and will no doubt cause confusion in the administrative office. Therefore, Professor Revlon’s actions will likely cause confusion in the administrative office.

Question:

Which of the following, if true, would allow the author to properly draw the conclusion expressed in the argument above?

  • Professor Revlon will not teach summer classes.
  • Ms. Mondragon will not teach summer classes.
  • Mr. Parnelli will not teach summer classes.

  1. I only
  2. II only
  3. III only
  4. II only
  5. I and III only

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

III only. They first sentence makes it clear that neither Mr. Tibbitts nor Ms. Mondragon will teach classes during the summer. However, nothing in the passage assures that Mr. Parnelli will also decide not to teach classes during the summer (…. If both Ms. Mondragon and Mr. Parnelli….), and therefore we cannot conclusively deduce that Professor Revlon will teach classes during the summer. Only by knowing that Mr. Parnelli will not teach summer classes (III) do we then have all the pieces in place to conclude that Professor Revlon will teach summer classes and therefore cause confusion in the administrative office.
