Question

Which of the following is the converse of the statement: "If x>4 then x+2>5"?

• A. If x+2<5 then x<4
• B. If x is not greater than 4 then x+2 is not greater than 5
• C. If x+2>5 then x>4
• D. If x+2 is not greater than 5 then x is not greater than 4

Answer 1

The correct option is C If x+2>5 then x>4

Converse of "If $A$ then $B$" is "If $B$ then $A$". Hence,

Converse of "If $x>4$ then $x+2>5$" will be "If $x+2>5$ then $x>4$"

So, $C$ is correct.
