You want to check if a number n is between 10 and 20 (inclusive) or exactly 0. Which condition correctly uses logical operators?
Anot (n < 10 or n > 20) and n == 0
Bn >= 10 and (n <= 20 or n == 0)
C(n >= 10 and n <= 20) or n == 0
Dn >= 10 or n <= 20 and n == 0
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand the condition requirements

    The number n should be between 10 and 20 inclusive, or exactly 0.
  2. Step 2: Analyze each option

    (n >= 10 and n <= 20) or n == 0 correctly groups the range check with and and then uses or for the zero check.
    n >= 10 and (n <= 20 or n == 0) changes the logic, allowing n == 0 to be combined incorrectly.
    n >= 10 or n <= 20 and n == 0 mixes operators without parentheses, causing wrong logic.
    not (n < 10 or n > 20) and n == 0 incorrectly requires n to be zero and in the range simultaneously.
  3. Final Answer:

    (n >= 10 and n <= 20) or n == 0 -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Range check with 'and', zero check with 'or' [OK]
Quick Trick: Group range with 'and', combine with 'or' for zero [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Wrong operator precedence
  • Misplacing parentheses
  • Combining conditions incorrectly
