MCQ
How many whole numbers are between $437$ and $487?$
  • A
    $50$
  • $49$
  • C
    $51$
  • D
    None of these.

Answer

Correct option: B.
$49$

The whole numbers between $437$ and $487$ are $438, 439, 440, 441, … , 484, 485$ and $486.$ To find the required number of whole numbers,
We need to subtract $437$ from $487$ and then subtract again $1$ from the result.
Thus, there are $(487 - 437) - 1$ whole numbers between $437$ and $487.$
Now, $(487 - 437) - 1$
$= 50 - 1 = 49$
Hence, the correct option is $(b).$
