It’s plus 9 so the next number should be 32
Step-by-step explanation:
a,b) you can place all 17 in the middle and both circle will have 17 each. then remove 2 and place one each on separate sides. you can do this 8 times so that at the you'll end up with 1 in the middle and 8 each on separate sides.
the ways to do is then 9.
It's a trick question. There are an infinite number of mixed numbers between 3 and 4 that can multiply to equal 12 (for example, 3 and 3/7 times 3 and 1/2), but there are no mixed numbers between 3 and 4 that can multiply to equal 9. 3 times 3 is not between them but is 3, but that quantity is excluded because 3<x<4. Anything even a small bit above the number 3 would have to be multiplied by 2 and some fraction, which would not be between 3 and 4.
