Which is an example of inductive reasoning?

(a) Because all prime numbers are odd, except for the number two, I conclude that 9 is a prime number.

(b) Because all angles add up to 180 degrees in a triangle, I can conclude that each angle in a triangle is 60 degrees.

(c) Because my mother drunk tea yesterday, I can conclude that she drinks it everyday.

(d) All mammals have hair, fur, or feathers. I can conclude that a dog is a mammal.

Deductive reasoning (based off facts)
Inductive reasoning (unsure prediction)

So the best answer would be
(c) Because my mother drunk tea yesterday, I can conclude that she drinks it everyday.
