Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Few-shot prompting

    Why it's wrong here

    Few-shot uses examples but does not explicitly explore multiple reasoning paths.

  • Self-consistency prompting

    Why this is correct

    Self-consistency samples multiple chain-of-thought outputs and picks the most consistent answer, improving factual accuracy.

  • Zero-shot prompting

    Why it's wrong here

    Why it's wrong here

    Chain-of-thought encourages step-by-step reasoning but only one path.
