6.Conclusions from results

5.Observed results of experiment

4.Predicted results of experiment

3.Experiment

2.Hypothesis

1.State the problem

Logical Reasoning steps for both types

2.Deduction

Deduction Example: When reading a manual to understand the detail of the link between the horn and the electrical wire you can thus conclude that a mispower in the electrical wire will lead to the horn not working properly.

Reasoning (general to specific)

1.Induction

Induction Example: If you observe a cycle and everytime there is a bump over repeated trials it misfires you can therefore conclude that a bump causes a misfire.
