LSAT Practice Test

Which of the following describes an argument?

1. An argument vs. a set of facts

2. Logical Opposition

3. Premise/Conclusion

4. TIP: On average, you have 1 minute and 25 seconds to complete each question.

The correct answer is: An argument vs. a set of facts

In logic, an argument is a set of statements where one or more statements (premises) are presented as reasons or evidence to support another statement (conclusion). This structure is known as a premise/conclusion relationship, as seen in choice C. On the other hand, the statement in choice A contrasts an argument with a set of facts, which is not an accurate description of an argument. Logical opposition, mentioned in choice B, does not accurately describe what an argument is. Finally, choice D is not relevant to describing an argument. Therefore, the correct choice is A because it accurately describes an argument as a set of statements.
