The given syllogistic form contains the universal negative proposition, "No P are M," which is in the form of E. The second premise and the conclusion are missing. However, we can assume that the missing premise follows the same pattern as the given premise, which results in the mood EOO. Since the negative premise is in the major premise, the figure must be 2.
