Solution

The converse of contrapositive of ∼p → q is p → ∼q.

Explanation:

Given statement: ∼p → q

Step 1: Find its contrapositive

Contrapositive of A → B is ∼B → ∼A.

So, contrapositive of ∼p → q is ∼q → p.

Step 2: Find the converse

Converse of A → B is B → A.

So, converse of ∼q → p is p → ∼q.
