Which of the following is correct about partitions

Logical partitions are included in a primary partition.

An extended partition has to be created last after the creation of primary partitions.

If a disk is divided into 5 partitions, then it can only have 3 primary partitions at most.

A partition can only be mounted to the /media directory.

Explanation / Answer

a) we can use fdisk -l to view list of partitions.

b)A logical partition is a partition that has been created inside the extended partition. A extended partition is a primary partition that has been designated for dividing up as a means of creating more partitions. so 1st option is true.

A disk can have 4 partitions i.e 3 primary and 1 extended. so option 3 and option 2 are correct.

a partition can also be mounted to hard disks along with media like /dev,/media, /mnt e.t.c. so option 4 is wrong.

Answer is 1,2,3 options are correct.
