Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-------> the favorite positive integer

Part a)

1) For $x=2$

$\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{4}=2$ -----> the product is an integer

The number $x=2$ could be Jenny favorite positive integer

2) For $x=50$

$\sqrt{50}*\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{100}=10$ -----> the product is an integer

The number $x=50$ could be Jenny favorite positive integer

3) For $x=18$

$\sqrt{18}*\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{36}=6$ -----> the product is an integer

The number $x=18$ could be Jenny favorite positive integer

Part B)

1) For $x=2$

$\sqrt{2}/\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{1}=1$ -----> the result is an integer

2) For $x=50$

$\sqrt{50}/\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{25}=5$ -----> the result is an integer

3) For $x=18$

$\sqrt{18}/\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{9}=3$ -----> the result is an integer

Therefore

When Jenny divides the square root of her favorite positive integer by $\sqrt{2}$ , she gets an integer
