Solve 30x < 200 where x is a natural number. The solution set is:
A{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
B{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
C{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
D{... -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
30x < 200 → x < 20/3 ≈ 6.67. Natural numbers start at 1 (As per your syllabus, convention here), so solution set = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.
