LSAT Practice Test

If two things are "inconsistent," what is the relationship between them?

1. Both are true

2. Both are false

3. At least one is true

4. Both cannot be true

The correct answer is: Both cannot be true

When two things are considered "inconsistent," it means that they contradict each other or are incompatible. If both were true, they wouldn't be inconsistent. If both were false, they wouldn't necessarily be considered inconsistent. If at least one were true, there could still be consistency between them. Therefore, when two things are inconsistent, it implies that both cannot be true, making option D the correct choice.
