Give an example of either Inductive or Deductive reasoning. Try to use a "real world" example of something you might have encountered or found on the internet. Your example could involve numbers, or some other kind of scientific information. If you have trouble coming up with an example, just use "Google" for some ideas.

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

In inductive reasoning we arrive to a general conclusion based on particular observations.

For example:

"My friends Peter and Mary study at XYZ University. Peter and Mary are brilliant.

Yesterday I met Joe in a party. Joe also studies at XYZ University and he happens to be brilliant, too.

I conclude that all the students of XYZ University are brilliant"

Notice that this kind of reasoning might lead to a false conclusion.

In deductive reasoning, we arrive to a particular conclusion based on general observations. So, deductive reasoning is the opposite of inductive reasoning.

An example of deductive reasoning could be the following:

"To be accepted in the XYZ University you must pass a test with a score greater than 70%.

My friend Peter studies at XYZ University, so he passed the test with a score greater than 70%"

In deductive reasoning you may arrive to a false conclusion if your general assumption is false.
