How many of the positive integers less than 25 are 2 less than an integer multiple of 4?
Correct Answer:
D: Six
Explanation:
How many of the positive integers less than 25 are 2 less than an integer multiple of 4? Correct Answer Six As the number is 2 less than an integer multiple of 4, we can write the generalised form of the number as 4k – 2, where k is a positive integer. When k = 1, the number is 4 x 1 – 2 = 2 When k = 2, the number is 4 x 2 – 2 = 6 When k = 3, the number is 4 x 3 – 2 = 10 When k = 4, the number is 4 x 4 – 2 = 14 When k = 5, the number is 4 x 5 – 2 = 18 When k = 6, the number is 4 x 6 – 2 = 22 When k = 7, the number is 4 x 7 – 2 = 26, which is not possible as the number is less than 25 so six integers
