I think no, since \(3 \cdot 10 > 16\)
OpenStudy (freemap):
I said no
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
next:
digital watches are 9
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
sorry, there are 15 digital watches
OpenStudy (michele_laino):

no
OpenStudy (freemap):
not the women but possibly the men
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
correct!
since \(0.06 \cdot 10 \neq 15\)
OpenStudy (freemap):
It has to be the last 2 now
OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please wait a moment, I make some computations...
OpenStudy (freemap):
okay
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
we have this diagram:
|dw:1456874181587:dw|
OpenStudy (michele_laino):

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
we have \(0.6 \cdot 10=6\) which is different from 15
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
there are 10 women's watches
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
so, also the second option is false, am I right?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
sorry, the second option is true!!

its fine
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
since we have 6 women's digital watches
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
third option is false, since analog watches are 16, and digital watches are 15, and
16-15 < 3
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
namely:
\[\Large 16 < 15 + 3\]
OpenStudy (freemap):
ohhh I see

fourth option is true, since we can write:
\[\huge 21 > 2 \cdot 10\]
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
men's watches = 21
women's watches = 10
OpenStudy (freemap):
Thanks so very much, I don't know what I'd do without you. B and D
OpenStudy (michele_laino):

now I have to go to sleep, since it is 24:30 (Italy time zone)
