Answer :
Final answer:
Option a) for i in range(5, 175, 5): is correct for printing ascending positive multiples of 5 less than 175. The range function starts at 5, ends before 175, and steps by 5, which aligns with the requirements for multiples of 5.
Explanation:
The correct answer for printing all positive multiples of 5 that are less than 175 in ascending order is option a) for i in range(5, 175, 5):.
Let's break down the for loop in Python to see why this is the correct choice. The range function has three arguments: start, stop, and step. In this case, we want to start at 5 (since 0 is not a positive multiple), stop before reaching 175, and increment by 5 each time, as we're looking for multiples of 5.
Here is the for loop written out as it would appear in Python:
for i in range(5, 175, 5):print(i, end=' ')
This for loop starts with the number 5 and prints numbers incremented by 5 up to but not including 175. The end=' ' parameter in the print function ensures that there is exactly one space between each printed number.
