Wheat has more nutritional value than rye. But since oats have more nutritional value than rice, it follows that wheat has more nutritional value than rice.
Any of the following, if introduced into the argument as an additional premise, makes the argument above logically correct EXCEPT:

  • A. Wheat and oats have the same nutritional value.
  • B. Rye has more nutritional value than oats.
  • C. Rye has more nutritional value than rice.

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
The best answer is E. The question asks for a different premise that does not make the argument logically correct. Choice A leaves open the possibility that the conclusion of the argument is false.
