To get the converse, we reverse the order of the two statements.

So the converse of p→~q is ~q→p, which is choice A

Answer: The correct option is

(A) ~q → p.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the statement that is the converse of the conditional statement p → ~q.

We know that

the converse of the conditional statement "p → q" is given by "q → p".

Also, we know that

~(~p) is same as p.

Therefore, the converse of the statement "p → ~q" is "~q → p".

Thus, option (A) is CORRECT.
