Question

Use the list method to write "The odd integers between 2 and 15".

A. (2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15)
B. (3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13)
C. (3,5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15)

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Integers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... etc.

Odd integers are the odd numbers, namely, 1, 3, 5, 7 ... etc.

Since we want the odd integers BETWEEN 2 and 15, we need to exclude 2 and 15 (2 is already excluded as it is even, and 15 needs to be excluded as well).

So the numbers after 2 and before 15, that are odd integers are:

3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13

In list format, it is:

(3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13)

B is the correct answer.
