If A, then B, which cannot happen without C

What would be the correct way to diagram this?

A->B->C

Or

(A->B)->C

    I believe it's the latter: (A -> B ) -> C

    "Which" is referring to this whole conditional (A -> B ) in order to this to happen, we need C.

    never mind, heart is right. I misread it and thought you wrote B cannot happen without C.

    heart is right, it's (A-->B) --> C

    @TheMikey I actually don't think your interpretation was incorrect. If I take the LSAT, then I'll score a 180, which cannot happen without studying hard. A -> B -> C perfect. I really think it just all depends on how we read it, and apparently you and I we were reading it differently that's all :)

    yeah, you're probably right :P
