Answer»

Right option is (B) 43 is prime as WELL as odd

Explanation: The compound STATEMENT with ‘And’ can be TRUE if all its component statements are true. If this condition is not satisfied, the compound statement cannot be true.

1 is neither less than 2 nor less than 3 so it is false. 43 is prime number as well as odd so it is true.

0 is neither positive number nor negative number. 16 is not divisible by 3 so it is false.
