When the hammer does not work, use a sledge hammer.
Assumptions:
I. A sledgehammer is more powerful than a hammer.
II. Different tools are required in different conditions.
Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)If A needs to be substituted by B, we assume that B is more appropriate than A. Now, the appropriateness of sledgehammer may be due to either of the following reasons:(a) a sledgehammer is more powerful; (b) though not more powerful, it works because different tools are required in different conditions. (b) may be explained by the following example: A chalk cannot be said to be more powerful than a pen. But when it comes to writing on a blackboard, you would use a chalk, not a pen.
