Question

If the following expression was evaluated for each integer between 10 and 150 inclusive how many times would it return true? i % 17 == 0 Select one:

a. 1
b. 0
c. 10
d. 7
e. 9
f. 8

Answer 1

The expression i % 17 == 0 returns true eight times for integers between 10 and 150 inclusive, as there are eight multiples of 17 between these two numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks how many times the expression i % 17 == 0 would return true for each integer between 10 and 150 inclusive. In other words, we are looking for the number of integers within that range that are divisible by 17 without any remainder. To find them, we would start at the first multiple of 17 that is greater than or equal to 10, which is 17 itself, and count to the last multiple of 17 that is less than or equal to 150, which is 153 - 3 = 150. The total count of such multiples gives us the answer.

These multiples are: 17, 34, 51, 68, 85, 102, 119, 136, and 153. However, since 153 is greater than 150, we do not include it. Thus, there are eight multiples of 17 within the specified range. The answer to the question is 8, meaning the expression would return true eight times for the integers between 10 and 150 inclusive.
