To evaluate premises, consequences and hypotheses, on this paper relevance and support ratios are defined for each of them. This allows to distinguish consequences based on the num- ber of premises that support them, and also to reduce the set of premises while maintaining the same consequences. Since the re- lation between premises and hypotheses is, in some sense, similar to the relation between consequences and premises, analogous ratios are defined for hypotheses and premises. Keywords— Conjectures, Consequences, Hypotheses, Relevance, Support.
