Answer: The correct option is (B) sometimes.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that p and q are statements such that p → q is true.

We are to select the correct option that gives the situations for being q → p true.

We know that

the truth table for p → q and q → p is as follows :

p q p → q q → p

T T T T

T F F T

F T T F

F F T T

Therefore, we can see that if p → q is true, then q → p is sometimes true, not always.

Thus, the complete statement is

If p → q is true, then q → p is SOMETIMES true.

Option (B) is CORRECT.
