Example:

Yoga can help strength muscles and increase flexibility. Because muscle strength is more important to most people, yoga teachers should choose to focus primarily on exercises that strengthen muscles.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

A) Some yoga exercises are better for beginning students, while others are more appropriate for advanced partitioners.

B) Different teachers are able to interpret yoga poses in different ways.

C) Even if a practice has two benefits, teachers should focus on the one that the majority of people find important

D) If an exercise is designed primarily to strengthen muscles, that exercise will not also increase flexibilty.

E) Yoga teachers are not concerned with the desire of their students.



Question :

What category of question is this? Is it strengthing or ???


Whats is wrong with my understanding? Where am i going wrong?

Conclusion = Yoga teacher -> focus on exerise that strengthen the muscles.


Premise 1 = muscle strength imp to most people
Premise 2 = Yoga help -> strengthen muscles and flex

This is want i assumed -> the yoga teachers are not concerned about what the people want.

So i selected the answer E (and this answer choice is wrong as per the book)

Where did i go wrong? How to answer these type of questions?
