The classic one is:


All men are mortal.

Socrates is a man.

Therefor Socrates is mortal.


i.e. If all
A are
B and all
C are
A then all
C are
B.


\overline{\exists x: Ax \land \overline{Bx}} \land \overline{\exists x: Cx \land \overline{Ax}} \Rightarrow \overline{\exists x: Cx \land \overline{Bx}}
