Solution

The answer is D. 31.

Here's why:

Step 1: Check each option by dividing it by 5 and see if the remainder is 2.

A. 7 divided by 5 gives a remainder of 2. B. 12 divided by 5 gives a remainder of 2. C. 17 divided by 5 gives a remainder of 2. D. 31 divided by 5 gives a remainder of 1.

So, options A, B, and C are eliminated.

Step 2: Check the remaining option by dividing it by 4 and see if the remainder is 1.

D. 31 divided by 4 gives a remainder of 3.

So, none of the options satisfy both conditions. There seems to be a mistake in the question.
