[math_celebrity]

A. 2
B. 3
C. 4
D. 5
E. 6

We have 3 conditions that all must be met:

1. Whole number
2. Prime Number
3. 20 * number is divisible by 6

• The are all whole numbers
• One A, B, and D are prime, so we eliminate C and E
• 20(2) = 40 which is not divisible by 6 - Eliminate Answer A
• 20(5) = 100 which is not divisible by 6- Eliminate Answer D
  
• 20(3) = 60/6 = 10. Our answer is B
