Can someone explain this question is about deductive reasoning and inductive reasoning. I say the answer is deductive reasoning. Is this correct?
Question: All United States Presidents have come from the original 48 states. No person from Alaska can be President.
First of all, you have not posted a question.
Since it goes from the general to the specific, it is deductive.
However, it is a fallacy. Just because nobody from Alaska has been President (past) does not mean that nobody can become President (future).
How about Hawaii?
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
