    Default English-native students: Which is true/false?

    I have to translate some mathematic exercises into English, can you help by correct my versions?

    I don't know which should be choosen?

    1.How many natural numbers are there in the interval [1;1000] such that the fraction (n^2 +4 +23)/n+4 is not in the lowest terms?
    2.How many natural numbers in the interval [1;1000] such that fraction (n^2+23)/n+4 is not in the lowest term ?
    3.How many natural numbers are there lying in the interval [1;1000] such that fraction.....is not in the lowest term?


    If they are all grammatical, which is the best ? which sounds mathematical? which is not grammatical?

    #1 is ok using "are there in the interval" #2 isnt correct because without "are there in the" its not asking a question. fadedjeans.

    #3 is correct also. To say or not say "lying in" is up to the person asking the question. Its just two ways to ask. fadedjeans.
