Which of the following can be defined as a group of statements that share a common conclusion?

AProposition
BArgument ✓ Correct
CConcept
DFallacy
Correct answer: (B) Argument
Explanation

A group of statements sharing a common conclusion, with some serving as support, is an argument.

The several premises are put forward together to establish a single conclusion.

What binds them is the inferential claim that they jointly back that conclusion.

A lone proposition or a bare concept lacks this supporting structure.

A set of statements organised around one conclusion is by definition an argument.
