Final answer:

None of the provided options are correct; 75 falls between the consecutive whole numbers 74 and 76.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student asked what two consecutive whole numbers does 75 fall between. This is a simple mathematical question asking to identify the two integers that a given number is situated between. Since 75 is not a whole number, we look for the nearest whole numbers that are immediately less than and greater than 75.

The solution to this question is straightforward. By examining the whole numbers surrounding 75, we can see that it is between the integers 74 and 76. Therefore, none of the given options (a. 6 and 7, b. 7 and 8, c. 8 and 9, d. 5 and 6) are correct. The student might be confused or have provided the options for a different question.
