Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Since the decimal $0.869$ is greater then another decimal number $0.356$ because of the fact that $869>356$.


Also since, the number before the decimals is same in the given numbers that is $256$, therefore, we conclude that $256.869>256.356$

Hence, the greater number is $256.869$.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

If we add two even numbers the answer is always even.

Let $2a$ and $2b$ be two even numbers as both are divisible by $2$
Sum $=2a+2b$
Sum $=2(a+b)$
which is also divisible by $2$ . So the sum is even.
So option $B$ is correct.

Write two odd integers lesser than $1$.

  1. $1,3$
  2. $-1,-3$
  3. $-3,5$
  4. $0,1$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
An odd number is an integer which is not divisible by two. If it is divided by two, then the result is a fraction. The set of odd integers is $-5,-3,-1,1,3,5,7,.....$

The following set of integers is lesser than $1$:

$.....-5,-3,-1,1$

Hence, two of the odd integers lesser than $1$ are $-1,-3$.

  1. $-2,-6$
  2. $-6,-8$
  3. $6,8$
  4. $-3,2$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation
An even number is an integer which is "evenly divisible" by two. This means that if the integer is divided by $2$, it yields no remainder. The set of even integers is $-6,-4,-2,2,4,6,8,.....$

The following set of integers is greater than $-4$:

$-2,2,4,6,8,.....$

Hence, two of the even integers greater than $-4$ are $6,8$.
