3 5

4 3

5 1

Let's find which statements are true :

A)there are exactly 3 students with less than 4 pairs of shoes.

Pair of shoes less than 4 = Pair 1 + Pair 2 + Pair 3 = 1+3+5 = 9 . So , there are exactly 9 students with less than 4 pairs of shoes. False statement!

B)there are exactly 4 students with less than 3 pairs of shoes.

Pair of shoes less than 3 = Pair 1 + Pair 2 = 1+3 = 4 . So , there are exactly 4 students with less than 3 pairs of shoes . true statement!

C)there are exactly 4 students with 3 pairs of shoes.

Pair of shoes is 3 = Pair 1 + Pair 2 + Pair 3 = 1+3+5 = 9 . So , there are exactly 9 students with 3 pairs of shoes . False statement!

D)there are exactly 3 students with 4 pairs of shoes.

Pair of shoes is 4 = Pair 1 + Pair 2 + Pair 3+ Pair 4 = 1+3+5+3 = 12 . So , there are exactly 12 students with 4 pairs of shoes . False statement!
