Explanation:

Question 14

A prime number is a number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself.

• Option A: 74 is divisible by 2 (74 ÷ 2 = 37), so 74 is not prime. Eliminate A.
• Option B: 77 is divisible by 7 (77 ÷ 7 = 11), so 77 is not prime. Eliminate B.
• Option C: 77 is not prime (as above), so eliminate C.
• Option D: 71 and 73 are both greater than 1. 71 has no divisors other than 1 and 71; 73 has no divisors other than 1 and 73. So both are prime.

Step1: Find total spoons

First, calculate the total number of spoons Jamal carved. He carved 57 on Saturday and 42 on Sunday. So total spoons = 57 + 42.
$57 + 42 = 99$

Step2: Find number of packages

He sells 3 spoons per package. To find the number of packages, divide total spoons by 3.
$\frac{99}{3} = 33$

Answer:

D. 71 and 73
