I know its not A and C

Astro · Answer

Ok good, Now that we have two eliminated we can try to take an educated guess.

Astro · Answer

You could figure out that it isn't A and C so what makes you think that?

I know its wrong cus ik quarante-deux is 42 and cinquante-trois is 53 im kinda leaning on B tbh, I think thats how u would pronounce it

Astro · Answer

That's great reasoning! What makes you think it is B?

carmelle · Answer

im pretty sure that you're supposed to say 'et' which means 'and'. also, trente-un just sounds wrong, when I pronounce it, it doesn't sit right with me.

Astro · Answer

Well, I think you used your context clues and did a great job because that is correct.
