Option B
A logical people are engineers
Replying to Daniel
Conclusion A: Some engineers may be creative.
We know:
All engineers → logical
Some logical → creative
So, engineers are in the "logical" group. Since some logical people are creative, it’s possible that some engineers may fall into that creative group, though not definite.
✔️ Conclusion A is logically possible. ("may be" makes this cautiously acceptable.)
