Answer 1

Answer:

a- only (i)

Step-by-step explanation:

None other number is divisible by 3 which concludes that any variable multiplied by 3 will not be 7,2 or 11.75.

Answer 2

Option D is correct, 3p can take any value among (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv)

Given:

p is a variable

To Find:

the values that 3p can take

Solution:

If 3p = 9

⇒ p = 3

Thus, 3p can take up the value of 9

If 3p = 7

p = 7/3

since it is not mentioned that p is an integer or not, we will assume that p can be a fraction.

Similarly, if 3p = 2, p = 2/3 and if 3p = 11.75, p = 3.916

Thus, we find that 3p can take any value among the given options.
