Question

Hazel wants to buy a water bottle with price equivalent to the smallest two-digit number from the digits 3, 4, and 5 without repetition. Which of the following water bottles will she buy?

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D

Answer 1

The correct option is B B

The cost of water bottles are 43 dollars, 34 dollars, 33 dollars, and 35 dollars.

Among the three digits 3, 4, and 5, the smallest digit is 3.

Hence, the tens place of the required number should be 3.

Among the remaining digits 4 and 5, 4 is the smallest.

Hence, 34 is the required number.

34 dollars is the price of water bottle B.

Hence, Hazel will buy water bottle B.
