Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
The critical numbers are the values of x that make the denominator of the fraction equal to 0 or undefined. In this case, the denominator is x-3. So we solve x-3=0 to get x=3. This is the only critical number, and it makes the denominator undefined. Therefore, the answer is E, 3.
