The value of Q is given by the relation Q = 17m. If m is an integer greater than 15 and less than 23, then which of the following is the value of Q?

complete question:

The value of Q is given by the relation Q = 17m. If m is an integer greater than 15 and less than 23, then which of the following is the value of Q?

A. 255

B. 290

C. 306

D. 391

Answer:

C. 306

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is Q = 17m. m is an integer and it is greater than 15 and less than 23. This means m can only be 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22.

Insert any of the value of Q from the options in the equation Q = 17m and solve the equation. The answer of m must be between 16 to 22.

let us try

option A

Q = 17m

255/17 = m

m = 15 (not A since it not greater than 15)

option B

Q = 17m

290/17 = m

m = 17.0588235294

(not an integer)

option C

Q = 17m

306/17 = m

m = 18

(correct. it is an integer and greater than 15 and less than 22)

option D

Q = 17m

391/17 = m

m = 23

(not less than 23)
