Actually fogcity, it’s just a case of ambiguous wording.

“Let S be the set of positive two digit integers” in the normal sense should give the answer 45. However, the makers of the question obviously didn’t intend this and worded it improperly, since their answer is 36.

By the way, College Board doesn’t make crap questions like this.
