Previous Year Question (PYQs)
Cars are safer than planes. Fifty percent of plane accidents result in death, while only one percent of car accidents result in death. Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the argument above?
Solution
The argument claims cars are safer because the death rate per accident is lower.
To weaken it, we must show that comparing percentages alone is misleading.
Option (2) shows that even though the percentage of fatal plane accidents is high, the total number of car accidents is so huge that many more people may die in cars overall.
This directly weakens the argument by showing the comparison is unfair.
