The contrapositive of the statement "If I reach the station in time, then I will catch the train" is:

1. If I will catch the train, then I reach the station in time.
2. If I do not reach the station in time, then I will not catch the train.
3. If I will not catch the train, then I do not reach the station in time.
4. If I do not reach the station in time, then I will catch the train.

Correct answer: If I will not catch the train, then I do not reach the station in time.

Solution

P = reach station in time, Q = catch train. The contrapositive is 'If I will not catch the train, then I do not reach the station in time.'
