Find Two-Digit Numbers: Tens Digit 6 and Less Than 67

Question

Choose the number that has a tens digit of 6 and is less than 67.

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to identify the number that meets two conditions: having a tens digit of 6 and being less than 67.

First, let's list the numbers between 60 and 69, inclusive, that potentially have a tens digit of 6:

  • 60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,6960, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69

Next, we apply the constraint that the number must be less than 67. Re-evaluating our list, we focus on numbers less than 67:

  • 60,61,62,63,64,65,6660, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66

All these numbers have a tens digit of 6 and are less than 67.

The problem requires choosing one number, and among the answer choices provided, only 61 matches both conditions established (tens digit of 6 and less than 67).

Therefore, the solution to this problem is 61 61 , corresponding to choice id 2.

Answer

61 61
