The number of positive multiples of 49 less than 2000 can be computed as 1960, the highest multiple, minus 49, the lowest, divided by 49, plus 1. In formulas \(\frac{(1960-49)}{49}+1 =
40\). The same rationale works for multiples of 50 less or equal than 2000, i.e. \(\frac{(2000-50)}{50}+1 = 40\).
Answer C
