If \(x\) is a two-digit, positive, odd integer, what is the value of \(x\)?

(1) \(x\) is a multiple of 5
(2) 30 is a multiple of \(x\)
GMATNinja
not able to ascertain why and how can B be correct?
given statement that x is a +ve odd integer and #2 says 30 is a multiple of x ; in that case x would always be even...
Bunuel
At the risk of sounding evasive, I'll try to get you on track with a hint, instead of an explanation. :)

Think about the difference between these two statements:

  • x is a multiple of 30
  • 30 is a multiple of x

Does that help at all? If not, try translating that 2nd statement into the following form: " _______ is a factor of ________", and see if that gets you unstuck?

I hope that helps a bit! If not, just let us know.
