Note: There is no figure present in the question, you have to identify the figure from the information provided.

​Identify the figure of the following –

All great scientists are college graduates.
Some professional athletes are college graduates.
Therefore, some professional athletes are great scientists.'​

Correct option is B

Step 1: Identify the Terms

• Major Term (P): Predicate of the conclusion = "great scientists."
• Minor Term (S): Subject of the conclusion = "professional athletes."
• Middle Term (M): Term present in both premises but not in the conclusion = "college graduates."

​Step 2: Rewrite the Syllogism in Standard Form

• Premise 1 (Major Premise): All great scientists (P) are college graduates (M).
  • Form:All P are M.
• Premise 2 (Minor Premise): Some professional athletes (S) are college graduates (M).
  • Form:Some S are M.
• Conclusion: Some professional athletes (S) are great scientists (P).
  • Form:Some S are P.

​Step 3: Determine the Figure
The figure of a syllogism depends on the position of the middle term (M)in the premises:

• I figure: M is the subject of the major premise and the predicate of the minor premise.
• II figure: M is the predicate of both premises.
• III figure: M is the subject of both premises.
• IV figure: M is the predicate of the major premise and the subject of the minor premise.
  
  

Since the middle term is thepredicate in both premises, this is the II figure.
