easy · LSAT Logical Reasoning

The average tenure of employees at a large technology company has risen by two years over the past decade. We may conclude that most of the company's employees have now been there longer than they had been a decade ago.

Which one of the following most accurately describes a flaw in the argument's reasoning?

  1. It slides from a statistic that characterizes a group as a whole to a claim about how the majority of its individual members fared
  2. It takes for granted that the company has hired no new employees at any point during the past ten years of its operation
  3. It disregards the possibility that overall employee satisfaction has fallen even as average tenures across the company have lengthened
  4. It neglects to state precisely how many additional years the company's average employee tenure has risen over the decade
  5. It assumes that a rising average tenure would be impossible unless every single employee's individual tenure had increased
