Hi I was hoping someone could answer a question that i have been struggling with. In the question stem what is the difference between "reasoning" and "argument"? Such as Flaw questions 1. "A major flaw in the argument is that the argument".... 2. "The reasoning in the argument is flawed because the argument"...
Im having trouble finding definitive definitions for the following aspects of the LSAT
1. Reasoning
2. Structure
3. Logical- such as "logically follows" or "logical features"

    An argument is anything made up of premises and a conclusion; the premises support the conclusion and together the form a whole argument.

    Reasoning describes the process by which a speaker arrives at his or her conclusion in an argument. How do the premises add up to support the conclusion? This is the reasoning of the argument.

    Logical as in logically follows refers to a valid inference that can be made. It is a statement that must be true according to the premises.
