Describe Argumentum A fortiori

A

(literally “argument from the stronger [reason]”)
A maiore ad minus - describes a simple and obvious inference from a claim about a stronger entity, greater quantity, or general class to one about a weaker entity, smaller quantity, or specific member of that class:

A minore ad maius - The reverse, less known and less frequently applicable argument is a minore ad maius, which denotes an inference from smaller to bigger. Jeżeli zabronione jest to, co mniejsze, to tym bardziej nie wolno czynić tego, co sięga jeszcze dalej (charakter zakazujący) np. jeżeli zakazano przekraczać prędkość 50 km/h, to tym bardziej nie można jechać z prędkością 100 km/h
