Identify the main flaw in the argument presented in the passage.
  • Step 1: Read the argument carefully to understand what it is saying.
  • Step 2: Look for any claims made about two events happening together.
  • Step 3: Identify if the argument suggests that one event causes the other just because they occur together.
  • Step 4: Recognize that this is a common mistake in reasoning called 'correlation does not imply causation.'
