Answer 1

The logical fallacy in this argument is the Either/Or (False Dilemma) fallacy. This is because it presents a limited number of options when there are actually more than two possible outcomes for the prom event. This argument is illogical because it unnecessarily limits the choices and ignores other potential options that could lead to a successful prom event.
