In a certain game, each player scores either 2 or 5 points. If n players score 2 points and m players score 5 points and the total number of points scored is 40, what is the least possible difference between n and m. Choose the most appropriate option:
A) a.1
B) b.3
C) c.5
D) d.7
E) e.9
2n+5m=40   try with n=5 and m=6 the equation will be satisfied   2(5)+5(6)=40   so difference between M and N is 1,   a.1nswer a.1
