PrepTest 134 - Section 1 - Question 21

Show summary

Support Game show winners choosing between two equally desirable prizes will choose either the one that is more expensive or the one with which they are more familiar. ███████ ███████ ███ ██ ████████ ███████ ███ ███████ █████████ ███ ███████ ██████████ ███████ █ ███ ██ ██ ████ ████ ██████ ██ █████ ██ ████ ██████████

Method of Reasoning

This argument proceeds by eliminating one option to confirm the other. When game show winners choose between two prizes, they select a prize based on two factors—price and familiarity. The author establishes that familiarity is not a relevant factor for Ed, so his decision will be based solely on price. The author concludes that he will therefore choose the more expensive item.
