PT8 S1 Q5
I got the answer right by process of elmination, but didn't understand the argument, more specifically, I don't see where the premise and conclusion are.
I thought the conclusion was: adolescence the percentage of boys with asthma is about he same as the percentage of girls with asthma.
And the premise being: because a larger number of girls develop asthma in early adolescence. (Doesn't "because" indicate premise)?
According to others, apperently the argument is saying:
Support: the percentage of adolescent boys with asthma is about the same as the percentage of adolescents girls with asthma.
Conclusion: number of adolescent boys with asthma is equal to number the number of adolescent girls with asthma
Where does it talk about about numbers of boys and girls hacing asthma being the same? Why is the conclusion not about percentages.
Can someone clear up why this is?
