👉 In logic and mathematics, a consequent is a statement that follows from another statement by being a direct result of it. This means that if the antecedent (the statement you are trying to prove) is true, then the consequent must also be true. For example, in the sentence "If it rains, then the ground will be wet," the consequent is that the rain has occurred. In mathematics, a consequent can be thought of as a statement that follows from another statement
