If there is information in the structure of the space of situations in which an argument's premises are true which shows that the premises are true and the conclusion is false in 2/3 of the space, and the argument's premises are true, is it rational to believe that the negation of the conclusion is true?

Answer and explanation:

Following the deductive thinking logic, an argument can have true premises (be valid) and can have a false conclusion. It's one possibility of many. However, if an argument says that all of its premises are true then, consequently, the conclusion must be true as well.
