Problem
At a certain beach if it is at least and sunny, then the beach will be crowded. On June 10 the beach was not crowded. What can be concluded about the weather conditions on June 10?
Solution
The beach not being crowded only means that it is not both hot and sunny. Equivalently, it is either cool or cloudy, which means is correct.
It could be in fact cool and sunny, which would violate (A) and (E). It could also be cool and cloudy, which would violate (D), or hot and cloudy, which would violate (C).
