it pretty clearly can’t be B since 2^98 is even, and 256m + 1 is odd

So then it can’t be D either, right?

I think they may have been answering the other image (verbal question). I know it’s now always easy to tell when the quote just mentions an image!

Formatting error there. Here is a proper version:

If \(2^{98} = 256*m + n\), where \(m\) and \(n\) are integers and \(0 \le n \le 4\), what is the value of \(n\)?

A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 3
E. 4
A

______________________________

A. Only people who pay to use the health club are allowed access to the café.

B. Members with 3 and 6 month memberships use the café much more than annual members do.

C. The café is most appealing to people who have never been to the club before.

D. The café only offers a small variety of food items when compared to nearby restaurants.

E. Members get a 10% discount on food at the café.
______________________________
CR 2

(A) High debt has an adverse impact on the inflation rate.

(B) It is not possible for a badly managed country to grow in a dynamic manner.

(C) High level of debt is extremely detrimental to the growth of a country.

(D) Growing inflation is a sign of a badly managed country.

This question is discussed here: is-x-a-negative-number-85105.html

P.S. You can ignore that question because such type of pure algebraic questions are no longer a part of the DS syllabus of the GMAT.

DS questions in GMAT Focus encompass various types of word problems, such as:
  • Word Problems
  • Work Problems
  • Distance Problems
  • Mixture Problems
  • Percent and Interest Problems
  • Overlapping Sets Problems
  • Statistics Problems
  • Combination and Probability Problems

While these questions may involve or necessitate knowledge of algebra, arithmetic, inequalities, etc., they will always be presented in the form of word problems. You won’t encounter pure "algebra" questions like, "Is x > y?" or "A positive integer n has two prime factors..."

Check GMAT Syllabus for Focus Edition

Hope it helps.

Can we expect DS questions from sequences and series?

Only if they are embedded into real-life word problems. Pure abstract questions about sequences or series, like finding the nth term or sum without context, won’t appear. But a sequence could show up if it’s tied to a real scenario, like payments increasing over time or production rates changing daily.
