How to complete the fitch-style proof to get the desired conclusion?

With this one you can use Taut Con (to implement MT, DS, DeM, if needed). Your main strategy is conditional proof/ →-Intro so you'll need a subproof.

premise 1: P → (Q → R) premise 2: P → (Q ∨ S) premise 3: P → ¬R prove: P → S

I tried this:

  1. P → (Q → R) Premise

  2. P → (Q ∨ S) Premise

  3. P → ¬R Premise

  4. Assume P Assumption

  5. Assume Q Assumption

  6.  P → R           → Elimination (1)
    
  7.  R               → Elimination (4, 6)
    
  8.  ¬R              → Elimination (3)
    
  9. Q → ¬R → Introduction (5-8)

  10. Assume S Assumption

  11. Q ∨ S          → Elimination (2)
    
  12. ¬R             → Elimination (9, 10)
    
  13. S ∨ Elimination (11)

  14. P → S → Introduction (4-13)

I was expecting it all to be true but it was not.
