Hello Everybody,
I saw the below question in a course on logical thinking. It's an interesting question that tests how precisely ones understands a statement, a critical skill tested heavily in the GMAT CR section. Data says that 70% of the people get the answer wrong.
Statement: If a card has a vowel on one side, then it has an even number on the other side.
Flipping which of the following cards will help you in verifying the correctness of the above statement? (Multiple cards may be helpful)
I'll post the answer in a few hours.

I think flipping card with even number(ie, 8) will help to validate this statement. This is a sufficient condition statement, which says that if a vowel on one side then it will have even no on other side of the card. So, taking an analogy to this ques, this is similar to saying that if I take this route then I will reach Delhi. Now, even if I don't take this route that doesn't mean that I will not reach Delhi. But if I have reached Delhi then I must have taken this route. So, by this logic. If card is showing even number on its one face then it must have a vowel on other side.
Am I correct, CJ?

If a card has a vowel on one side, then it has an even number on the other side.
a) If something is ON, "flip of something" is OFF.
OR
b) If something is BLACK, "flip of something" is WHITE.
Here, the cases to verify the correctness of the given statement could be:-
a) If a card has a vowel on one side, then it has an ODD number on the other side.
A3
b) If a card has a CONSONANT on one side, then it has an even number on the other side.
