If we have the premise D-most-B and the conclusion B-some-C, then we need to find a premise that would allow us to somehow connect B and C. The common denominator through which we can connect them is D.
If D - > C, then we have the following diagram:
C < - D-most-B
If D-most-B, we know that B-some-D
Now let's connect B-some-D - > C, which gives us the inference of B-some-C.
Hope this helps!

What does the 'some' and 'most' in between 'D', 'B' and 'C' means?

You should explain how to combine some, most, and all statements

@Kelley, happy to help!
Quantifier statements (some/most statements) and how to combine them are covered in depth in the "Quantifiers" lesson. If you have not gotten to that section in your study plan yet, don't worry. I would recommend returning to this drill after you make your way through that lesson.
Does that make sense? Hope it helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions!
