Is the integer n a prime number?

(1) 24 \(\leq\) n \(\leq\) 28
(2) n is not divisible by 2 or 3


OG Q 2017 New Question(Book Question: 218)

None of the integers in statement 1) are prime

24 is divisible by 2
25 is divisible by 5
26 is divisible by 2
27 is divisible by 3
28 is divisible by 2

We get a sufficient answer that n is not prime.

Statement 2)

Well 5 is a prime and not divisible by neither 2 nor 3

25 is not a prime and is not divisible by neither 2 nor 3.

Insufficient.

Answer choice A

OG Q 2017 New Question(Book Question: 218)
Solution:

Question Stem Analysis:


We need to determine whether integer n is a prime number.

Statement One Alone:

We see that n could be 24, 25, 26, 27, or 28. Since none of these numbers are prime, the answer to the question is no. Statement one alone is sufficient.

Statement Two Alone:

Statement two alone is not sufficient. For example, if n = 5, then n is a prime. However, if n = 35, then n is not a prime. Statement two alone is not sufficient.

Answer: A
