Argument completion drills

While doing the argument completion drills I am a bit confused and just want clarification. an example of a problem would be the two premises A->B and C->not B. Contrapositives being Not B-> not A and B->not C. For the conclusion as answers we have C->not A and contrapositive would be A->not C. Would I still get the answer right if I was to say my answer to the conclusion was A->not C and contrapositive was C->not A instead?

Did you ever get an answer to this question? I'm also confused why I'm getting the right answers but not sure which one to choose as the positive v. contrapositive

I'm struggling on this section as well. I'm trying to find an example of how to complete these types of questions. I've completed the premise drill flashcard section.

Hello -- I need help on argument completion flashcard drills

Example: P: x--y / P: y--z
Contrapositive would be P: not y -- not x / P: not z -- not y

Now I get stuck on how to make the proper conclusion from the above setup. What should my next steps be?
