The statement 'Either Jon or Sara will be elected' is consistent with both being elected.

• A. False
• B. Not necessarily
• C. True
• D. Impossible

Answer: (C)

The main idea is how to read "either ... or" in this statement. In everyday language, "either Jon or Sara will be elected" can be true even if both end up being elected, because the phrase only requires that at least one of them is elected. If both are elected, Jon is elected (and Sara is as well), so the statement remains satisfied. That means the scenario where both win does not contradict the statement, making it true. So the best choice is True.

If you think about the other options: it wouldn’t be false or impossible because there is a possible outcome (both being elected) that still keeps the statement true. It also isn’t “not necessarily,” since there is at least one consistent outcome where the statement holds (namely, both could be elected).
