Question

Use the row of numbers shown below to generate 12 random numbers between 01 and 99.

- 31046
- 68826
- 95853
- 40380
- 08397
- 02542
- 59339
- 88154
Starting at the beginning of the​ row, what are the first 12 numbers between 01 and 99 in the​ sample?

Answer 1

By segmenting the given number sequence into two-digit groups and ignoring any groups with leading zeros, the first 12 numbers between 01 and 99 generated are 31, 04, 66, 88, 26, 95, 85, 34, 03, 80, 83, and 97.

Step-by-step explanation:

To generate 12 random numbers between 01 and 99 using the given row of numbers, we start by dividing the numbers into two-digit groups (ignoring any leading zeros):

• 31
• 04
• 66
• 88
• 26
• 95
• 85
• 34
• 03
• 80
• 83
• 97

The above list is made by taking two adjacent digits as a pair (except any pair that has zero as the first digit). If we need more than these twelve, we would continue to the next pairs in the sequence.

Since the question only requests 12 numbers, we stop at the last number listed which is 97.
