@SarinaDev because the first rule is a necessary condition ("only if") and the 2nd rule is a sufficient condition ("if...then"). I know, I was also so confused about this.
@clumar1 I wouldn't focus on speed until I have done all of the foundational topics and I am now drilling questions and doing more practice tests.
@kamalish73232 This is an RRE question so we have to take the answer choices as true ("Which of the following, if true,"). We just have to chose the answer that best explains what is happening in the stimulus. The answer choice does not have to contain the same information in the stimulus, it just has to explain it.
@JohnBlessing you can trust the answer choices to be true, while the stimulus is also true. In RRE questions, the stimulus is true. The answer choices are also true even if they use outside knowledge, you just have to choose the AC that explains the casual relationship happening in the stimulus.
@JessM In the stimulus (conclusion), "should pay for this damage" is on the right side of the arrow since it is before the sufficient indicator "if". Answer choice (A) has "pay for any damage" also on the right side of the arrow because it is before the sufficient indicator "if". Whereas (B) has the necessary indicator "only if". Whatever is before "only if" is on the left side of the arrow. It is basically the wrong reversal of the conclusion. Hopefully that makes sense! I would recommend watching the foundational videos on sufficient vs necessary assumption indicators and conditional reasoning.
