Question

If x and y are positive numbers both are less than one, then the maximum value of floor (x + y) is?

  1. 0
  2. 1
  3. 2
  4. -1

hintHint:

 The floor function returns the largest nearest integer which is less than or equal to a specified value.

The correct answer is: 1


    Since x < 1 and y < 1, this implies that x + y < 2 which means maximum value of floor(x + y) is 1.

    Keep "Since x < 1 and y < 1, this implies that x + y < 2  " this step in mind.
