    According to the title, we have:

    99<a<110 and a is a prime number

    So a=103

    b is the greatest 1-digit number so b = 9

    a+b=103+9=112

    2 x 2 + 1 = 5

    3 x 2 + 1 = 7

    5 x 2 + 1 = 11

    7 x 2 + 1 = 15

    11 x 2 + 1 = 23

    13 x 2 + 1 = 27

    So,there are 4 jillyprimes which are less than 15 : 2 ; 3 ; 5 ; 11

    We have:

    25 do not divide to 10

    So 25 can't be true about number N of doors .

    Note: I'm not certain

Let the answer be k . We count the total number of paris of students were on duty together in the k days. Since every pair of students was on duty together exactly once, this is equal to \(C^{15}_2\) x 1 = 105. On the other hand, since 3 students were on duty per day, this is also equal to \(C^3_2\) x k = 3k. Hence 3k = 105 and so k = 35
