I am an odd two-digit number I have a two in the tens place you say me when you count by fives
surely you meant 25
Apologies for the confusion. You are correct, the correct odd two-digit number with a two in the tens place that is said when counting by fives is 25.
To find the odd two-digit number you are referring to, let's go step-by-step:
Step 1: Start by listing the numbers you get when you count by fives: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, ...
Step 2: Look for the number that has a two in the tens place. The only number in the list above that meets this criteria is 25.
So, the odd two-digit number you are referring to is 25.
To find the answer, let's break down the clues provided:
"I am an odd two-digit number": This means we're looking for a number that has two digits and is also an odd number.
"I have a two in the tens place": This tells us that the tens place digit is 2.
"You say me when you count by fives": This implies that the number is reached when counting by fives.
Since the tens digit is 2, the only odd number that can be obtained when counting by fives and meets the given criteria is 25. When you say "25" while counting by fives (5, 10, 15, 20, 25), you reach the number that fits all the clues.
