A. $$\frac{1}{p}$$ is less than 1

B. $$\frac{1}{p}$$ is a positive integers

C. p2 is less than p

D. $$\frac{2}{p}$$ - p is a positive number

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

p < 1
⇒ $$\frac{1}{p}$$ > 1
⇒ $$\frac{2}{p}$$ > 2
⇒ $$\frac{2}{p}$$ - p > 2 - p > 0 [∵ p < 1]
Hence, $$\left( {\frac{2}{p} - p} \right)$$ is a positive number
