The statement 'If a student is late, they stand outside' logically implies which of these?
AStanding outside means the student was late always
BNot standing outside means student is fully on time
CNot being late means the student stands inside always
DIf a student is on time then they do not stand outside
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. If a student is on time then they do not stand outside
Contrapositive of 'If late then outside' is 'If NOT outside then NOT late' equivalently 'If on time then NOT outside'. Other options are converse/inverse, which may be false.
