    The document discusses two types of reasoning: inductive reasoning which involves drawing conclusions from specific observations to general conclusions, and deductive reasoning which involves reaching conclusions by applying general assumptions to specifics. Examples are provided to illustrate inductive and deductive reasoning. The document also provides information on KenKen puzzles, including the rules for solving them which involve filling a grid with numbers according to mathematical operations in outlined cages.

    REASONING

    • Process of drawing conclusion


    TWO TYPES OF REASONING
    • Inductive Reasoning
     It is a process of drawing conclusions from specific to
    general observation.
    It involves conclusions that are more or less probable.
    Example:
    4, 8, 12, 16, 20, ____ Ans: 24
    4, 9, 16, 25, ___ Ans: 36
    1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ___ Ans. 32
     
    • Deductive Reasoning
     Process of reaching conclusions by applying general assumptions
     General to Specifics
    Example:
    Solving Logic Puzzle
    Each 4 neighbors Aster, Anji, Agnes and Anna has different
    occupations (writer, teacher, chef or doctor). From the following clues,
    determine their occupations.
    1. Anji gets home from work after the teacher but before the doctor.
    2. Agnes who is last to go home is not the writer.
    3. The doctor and Agnes leave for work at the same time.
    4. The teacher leaves next door to Anna.
    Solution:
    1. From clue 1, Anji is not the teacher nor the doctor. (So you can
    cross out teacher and doctor under the name of Anji)
    2. From clue 2, Agnes is not the writer and from clue 1, the teacher
    is not the last to go home, but Agnes is. . (So you can cross out
    teacher and writer under the name of Agnes)
    3. From clue 3, Agnes is not the doctor, leaving Agnes as the
    probable chef. Since Agnes is the chef, the other three are not.
    4. Anji is the writer and the other two, Aster and Anna are not.
    5. From clue 4, Anna is not the teacher which makes Anna the
    doctor and Aster the teacher.

    Therefore, Aster is the teacher, Anji is the writer,


    Agnes if the chef and Anna id the doctor.
    Examples:
    Identifying Inductive or Deductive
    1. A tiger is a cat  since “A TIGER” is singular, it
    implies specific assumption.
    Cats don’t eat tomatoes and since “CATS” is a plural
    word, then it depicts general
    assumptions
    Tigers don’t eat tomatoes
    Therefore it is inductive in nature because it is
    specific from general assumption.
    2.
    • Janet is a woman.
    • Women are lovable.
    ____________________
    Answer:
    Janet is lovable
    Inductive in nature
    3. All pentagons have five sides.
    Since, the word “ALL indicates plural, then it is
    in general form
    Figure A is a pentagon
     and since there is an specific “FIGURE A”, then
    this is an specific assumption
    Answer:
    Figure A has five sides therefore it is deductive in nature
    because it is general to specific assumption.

    • All Gillian Flynn novels are worth reading
    • The novel “Gone Girl” is a Gillian Flynn novel
    ____________________

    Answer:
    The novel “Gone Girl” is worth reading.
    Deductive in nature
    RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY
    KenKen Puzzle
     A trademarked names for styles of arithmetic and logic
    puzzle invented in 2004 by Japanese math teacher Tetsuya
    Miyamoto.
     The noun “ken” has “knowledge” and “awareness”, hence,
    it is translated as knowledge squared or awareness
    squared.
    Rules for Solving KenKen Puzzle
    A.For a 3x3 puzzle, fill in each box (square) of the grid with one of
    the numbers 1, 2, or 3.
    For 4 x 4 puzzle, fill in each box (square) of the grid with one of
    the numbers 1, 2, 3 or 4
    For n by n puzzle, fill in each square of the grid with one of the
    numbers 1, 2, 3,…, n
    Grids range in size from a 3 by 3 up to 9 by 9.
    B.Do not repeat a number in a row or column.
    C.The numbers in each broken outlined set of squares, called cages ,
    must combine, to produce the target number in the top left corner
    of the cage using mathematical operation indicated.
    C. Cages with fully outlined set of
     

    squares should be filled in with the


    target number.
    D. A number can be repeated within a
    cage as long as it is not in the same
    row or column.
