I am a number between 75 and 87. I have fewer than 3 ones. I am an odd number. What number am I ?
76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 86
Three of those numbers have fewer than 3 ones. Which one of those is an odd number?
the only odd number between 75 and 87 with fewer than 3 ones is 81.
To find the number that meets all the given criteria, we can start by listing out the odd numbers between 75 and 87: 75, 77, 79, 81, 83, 85, and 87.
Next, let's narrow down the list by considering the condition of having fewer than 3 ones. To do this, we count the number of ones in each of the remaining numbers.
75 has two ones.
77 has zero ones.
79 has zero ones.
81 has zero ones.
83 has zero ones.
85 has zero ones.
87 has zero ones.
Based on the given conditions, we can see that the number that meets all the criteria is 77.
