Meet Detective Fred Frisk, a clumsy yet incredibly sharp sleuth. Despite his bumbling ways, Fred has an uncanny ability to solve even the most perplexing cases. Why? Because of his skill in making inferences—logical deductions based on evidence and reasoning. One day, Fred was assigned a case of a missing priceless artifact. The only clue was a feather found near the display case. Most people were baffled, but not Fred. He inferred that the thief may have a pet bird, as the feather was from a rare parrot species. Fred's inference led to the questioning of all rare parrot owners in town. Eventually, he discovered the artifact in the house of one. How did Fred solve this with just a feather? It’s all about inference—making logical conclusions based on the available evidence. But inference isn't just for detective work. Fred uses inference in his daily life too. For example, hearing a crash from the kitchen and seeing his cat run out with a guilty look, Fred infers that his cat knocked something over. This is inference—drawing logical conclusions from what we know or observe.
