This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

For integers a, b and k, we know that a > 12, b < 20 and a < b. If b=7k, what is the value of k ?

Answer: the value of k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

a > 12

b < 20

a < b

If b = 7k

Now if k = 1      {b = 7k = 7}

b would be equal to 7 but b has to be greater than 20

IT CANT BE

if k = 2        { b = 7k = 14}

b would be equal to 14, a is greater than 12, b has to be less than b; 14 < 20,

a has to be less than than b ( 12 < 14 )

IT IS

if k = 3      {b = 7k = 21}  

b would be equal to 21, so b is greater than 20 and a is less than 21

IT CANT BE

Therefore the value of k = 2
