Diagramming Practice – Martial Artists

Diagram the following conditional statement and find its contrapositive: “Only the most talented martial artists will ever become black belts.”

Answer



The conditional keyword here is “only.”  “Only” (by itself) indicates a necessary condition.  So that means “most talented martial artists” is a necessary condition.  The other term, “black belts” is the sufficient condition.
