उत्तर

The contrapositive of the statement “If 7 is greater than 5, then 8 is greater than 6” is if 8 is not greater than 6, then 7 is not greater than 5.

Explanation:

Let p: 7 is greater than 5

q: 8 is greater than 6

∴ p → q i.e., ~ p: 7 is not greater than 5.

And ~ q: 8 is not greater than 6.

So ~ p → ~ q: If 8 is not greater than 6, then 7 is not greater than 5.
