Twenty eight slips of paper are numbered 1 through 28 and are distributed among a group of people. A random number generator is used to select a single number between 1 and 28, inclusively

A fair decision is made using this process

How many people could be in this group?

A. 3
B. 6
C. 7
D. 12

Option D, 7, is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that 28 slips of papers are numbered through 1 to 28.

Accordingly, there are 28 numbers.

For a fair decision, the number of slips with each one must be the same.

Therefore, the decision will only be fair if the number of people in the group is a factor of 28.

The factors of 28 are -  1, 2, 4, 7, 14 and 28.

In this way, 7 is the only factor of 28 among the given options.

Hence, the answer will be 7.

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
