Basically think of inductive reasoning as a guess based on information available, such as watching a trend and predicting the next few outcomes. It deals more with unknowns whereas deductive reasoning is connecting known properties. All estimates use inductive reasoning.

By comparison, deductive reasoning can involve determining if correlated effects have some sort of causation. For instance, you leave a door open and you hear a slam later. If you walk to that door and it's closed, you might deduce the sound was from it closing.
