What's the best way to approach numbers and percentages questions in justify the conclusion questions?
Hello arishmawi,
That's an interesting hybrid question: the "numbers/percentages" area merged with the "Justify" area.
Of course, Justify questions are often solved sort of mechanically, sort of how supporter assumption questions might be answered: linking things together, more or less.
One typical example of how to answer a Justify question is like, "Premise: 2 apples. Conclusion: 5 apples. What is the right Justify answer?" Of course, the right answer would be, or at least include, 3 apples. So there's a "Justify question with numbers" right there.
As for numbers and percentages: first, don't be fooled into thinking numbers are percentages, or vice versa! That's a favorite trick of the test makers. Once you sort out what you need, vis-a-vis numbers and percentages, then you can try plugging that in just as in the "apples" example above. Again, when you have Justify questions, there may be some "linkage" involved, e.g., linking some "rogue" or "new" element in the conclusion, back to what was already in the premises.
Hope this helps,
David
