Question
If x and y are positive numbers both are less than one, then the maximum value of floor (x + y) is?
- 0
- 1
- 2
- -1
Hint:
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.
