Answer:

A. draws conclusions based on premises everyone can agree on.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deductive reasoning is stronger because uses premises, which are always true. So, starting from this true statements (premises), we draw conclusions, deducting consequences from these premises, this it's also called a deductive logic.

A simple example of deductive reasoning could be:

Premises:

All men die.

My neighbour died.

Conclusion: My neighbour was a man.

A. draws conclusions based on premises everyone can agree on.
I would pick this because with inductive you will have a very strong or a very weak argument, whereas deductive reasoning is awesome because, if used correctly, leads to the most agreeable (and logical) solution.
