Question

A basketball player made 5 baskets during a game. Each basket was worth either 2 or 3 points. How many different numbers could represent the total points scored by the player?

Answer 1

The lowest he will get is 10 points and highest 15, 3-2=1 so minimum increment is 1. Count 10 to 15 by increment of 1 you will have 6 different numbers.
