Question

Twenty eight slips of paper are numbered 1 through 28 and are distributed among a group of people. A random number generator is used to select a single number between 1 and 28, inclusively
A fair decision is made using this process

How many people could be in this group?

A. 3
B. 6
C. 7
D. 12

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a random number generator is used to select a single number between 1 and 28, inclusively;

For a fair decision to be made during the process, the number of persons in the set must be a divisor of 28.

Let's list the divisors of 28:

The divisors of 28 are {1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28}

The only option that contains one of the divisors is option C which is 7.
