Question

What is the sum of the greatest and the smallest two-digit even numbers?

• A. 100
• B. 108
• C. 110
• D. 120

Answer 1

The correct option is B 108

The greatest two-digit number is 99.

99 is an odd number.

Subtract 1 from 99, to get the greatest two-digit even number.

i.e 99 - 1 = 98

So, the greatest two-digit even number is 98.

The smallest two-digit number is 10.

10 is an even number.

So, the smallest two-digit even number is 10.

Therefore, the sum of the greatest and the smallest two-digit even numbers is 98 + 10 = 108.
