Asked by lisa
if thr mechanic says that it will take seven days to repair your car, then it will actually take ten days. The mechanic says, "I figure it'll take a week to fix it." Then you can expect it to be ready ten days from now. I don't understand how this would be deductive reasoning.

a week is 7 days.
Now look at the first sentence.
Kind of a trivial example, but you have to deduce that
He says a week.
I know he takes 10 days when he says 7.
A week is 7 days, so it will take 10.
