How many whole numbers less than 50 are divisible by 5 or 7 but not both?
14. Assuming dealing with only counting numbers (ie integers greater than 0): Numbers divisible by 5 or 7 are their multiples. 50 ÷ 5 = 10 → last multiple of 5 less than 50 is 9 x 5 → 9 numbers less than 50 are divisible by 5 50 ÷ 7 = 71/7 → last multiple of 7 less than 50 is 7 x 7 → 7 numbers less than 50 are divisible by 7 Numbers divisible by both are those which are multiples of their lowest common multiple = 35 50 ÷ 35 = 115/35 → last multiple of 35 less than 50 is 1 x 35 → 1 number less than 50 is divisible by both 5 and 7 and needs to be removed from both the above counts. → (9 - 1) + (7 - 1) = 14 numbers less than 50 are divisible by 5 or 7 but not both. If there is no restriction on numbers being greater than 0, there are infinitely many numbers as it includes the infinite number of negative numbers which are all less than 50 and provide an infinite number of numbers divisible by 5 or 7 but not both.

What are odd multiples of 7 less than fifty 50?
Odd multiples of 7 less than 50 are numbers that are both odd and divisible by 7, and are less than 50. The odd multiples of 7 less than 50 are 7, 21, and 35. These numbers are odd because they are not divisible by 2, and they are multiples of 7 because they can be divided evenly by 7.
What number divisible by 9 is greater than 50 but less than 60?
