multiples

by lalabee » Wed Jan 30, 2008 10:51 pm
Hello,

how many multiples of 3 are among 15 thru 105 inclusive?
==>> 35-5+1=31

How many multiples of 4 are btw 16 and 260?
Question: should i count 16 & 260 as the multiples of 4 ? or it should be exclude frm the answer? (because it didnt say inclusive)

Please help.

Thanks.

I think that in the GMAT if it doesnt say inclusive, then is not inclusive....so you should not count 16 or 260.......that is what I think.
