wild cats

This conclusion should be invalid because of the type. It's supposed to be muscle to fat ratio not just ratio. Since we're relying on a play of words.

Hey there,

(C) is the correct conclusion, but there appear to be typos in answers
(A) through (D). "Muscle-to-ratio" should actually be "muscle-to-fat
ratio."

Thank you for catching this error.

P: good hunters - >high MTF ratio
P: wild cats - most - >good hunters

C: most wild cats have a high MTF ratio

If most wild cats are good hunters, and we know all good hunters have
a high MTF ratio, then most wild cats have a high MTF ratio

Does this make sense? Let us know if you have any other questions!
