Answer 2

A. John gets a pain in his side when he runs for more than a mile. He believes that all runners feel pain after running for more than a mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Inductive reasoning is a type of logical thinking that involves forming generalizations based on specific details, such as your experiences, observations, or facts you know about.

The opposite of inductive reasoning is deductive reasoning, which starts from a generalization or hypothesis, which is then confirmed or disproved based on specific experiences.

The example of inductive reasoning is passage A. John starts from his personal experience (he feels pain in his side) and then makes a generalization (all runners feel pain after running for more than a mile).
