Answer:
- common = []
- num1 = 8
- num2 = 24
- for i in range(1, num1 + 1):
- if(num1 % i == 0 and num2 % i == 0):
- common.append(i)
- print(common)
Explanation:
The solution is written in Python 3.
Firstly create a common list to hold a list of the common factor between 8 and 24 (Line 1).
Create two variables num1, and num2 and set 8 and 24 as their values, respectively (Line 3 - 4).
Create a for loop to traverse through the number from 1 to 8 and use modulus operator to check if num1 and num2 are divisible by current i value. If so the remainder of both num1%i and num2%i will be zero and the if block will run to append the current i value to common list (Line 6-8).
After the loop, print the common list and we shall get [1, 2, 4, 8]
Answer:
B. {1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5}
Explanation:
Given
The above code segment
Required
Determine which list does not work
The list that didn't work is 
Considering options (A) to (E), we notice that only list B has consecutive duplicate numbers i.e. 2,2 and 3,3
All other list do not have consecutive duplicate numbers
Option B can be represented as:
![nums[0] = 1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B0%5D%20%3D%201)
![nums[1] = 2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B1%5D%20%3D%202)
![nums[2] = 2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B2%5D%20%3D%202)
![nums[3] = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B3%5D%20%3D%203)
![nums[4] = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B4%5D%20%3D%203)
![nums[5] = 4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B5%5D%20%3D%204)
![nums[6] = 5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B6%5D%20%3D%205)
if (nums.get(j).equals(nums.get(j + 1)))
The above if condition checks for duplicate numbers.
In (B), when the elements at index 1 and 2 (i.e. 2 and 2) are compared, one of the 2's is removed and the Arraylist becomes:
![nums[0] = 1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B0%5D%20%3D%201)
![nums[1] = 2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B1%5D%20%3D%202)
![nums[2] = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B2%5D%20%3D%203)
![nums[3] = 3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B3%5D%20%3D%203)
![nums[4] = 4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B4%5D%20%3D%204)
![nums[5] = 5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=nums%5B5%5D%20%3D%205)
The next comparison is: index 3 and 4. Meaning that comparison of index 2 and 3 has been skipped.
<em>This is so because of the way the if statement is constructed.</em>
