P: All famous actors needed a lot of luck to become famous, but only those who work hard get lucky.

(A): (In acting, those who are famous are successful.)

(A): (Successful people in other entertainment fields are also hard-working.)

C: Therefore, all successful actors had to work hard.

Visit arcade forum to discuss the question (QUESTION # 2966)


This question is flawed. F->L ->W and the credited choice F->S would only lead to the conclusion that some successful actors had to work hard. The converse of F->S, S-> F would lead to the conclusion in the answer choice. So if you want to keep the conclusion in the answer choice, you could change the assumption to "In acting, those who are successful are famous."
