CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. Two-digit numbers with digit sum 10: 19, 28, 37, 46, 55, 64, 73, 82, 91.

  2. Even numbers and 55 are out, leaving 19, 37, 73, 91.

  3. 91=7×1391 = 7 \times 13 is composite, so the primes are 19, 37 and 73: 3 numbers.

Worth noting

91 is the classic false prime; counting it gives 4.
