Summary:
To improve problem solving it would help to understand inductive and deductive reasoning. Deductive reasoning is based on facts that lead to a logical explanation, where as inductive reasoning is based on simple patterns to try and solve the problem.
Example of a deductive problem:
Mammals have hair. Dogs are mammals. So therefore, dogs have hair.
Conclusion:
Based on the statement, the answer is deductive because it demonstrates proof in the original statement.
Mammals have hair. (Which is all mammals, not just dogs)
Dogs are mammals. (Mammals have hair)
So we can come to the conclusion that, yes, all dogs have hair because there are mammals. There is proof stated, so the answer cannot be inductive, the statement is deductive.
