Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option B: X is 13, Y is 21, Z is 22
Concept: Integer Interval Bounds.

Formula: Interval = \((11, 24)\).

Solution: Smallest prime = 13 (X), Largest multiple of 3 = 21 (Y), Smallest multiple of 11 = 22 (Z).

Why other options are incorrect:

Option A: Includes boundary values 24 and 11.
