square{23}
a. 16 and 24
b. 16 and 25
c. 18 and 24
d. 20 and 25

Answer 1

B

Answer 2

The others all contain numbers that are not perfect squares.

Answer 3

4*4 = 16, 5*5 = 25, they're both perfect squares, there's no whole numbers between 4 and 5, so there's no perfect squares between 16 and 25. Therefore, B is the only correct answer.
