Denny asked: Premise: "Cyclists are focused straight ahead as they ride along a street with onlookers watching from behind barricades."
Hypothesis: "The cyclists are in a race and have numbers pinned to their backs."
Is the hypothesis entailed by the premise?
Options:
- yes
- it is not possible to tell
- no.
Le: OK, so how can I answer with some explanation?
Cyclists who are focused straight ahead as they ride along a street with onlookers are not necessarily in a race and not necessarily have numbers pinned to their backs.
The answer: it is not possible to tell.
