ANSWER:
Here’s the correct interpretation of the clue:
- “Four” → the number 4 must appear
- “Eight” → the number 8 must appear
- “One nine” → there should be exactly one 9
Let’s examine each option:
- A. 88889 → Missing the number 4 ❌
- B. 4819 → Contains 4 ✅, contains 8 ✅, contains one 9 ✅
- C. 888819 → Missing the number 4 ❌
- D. 489 → Contains 4 ✅, contains 8 ✅, contains one 9 ✅
Final Result:
Both B (4819) and D (489) satisfy the conditions.
However, D (489) is considered the better answer because the phrase says “one nine” without a comma separating the words.
