Consider the following class definition. public class Value { private int num; public int getNum() { return num; } // There may be instance variables, constructors, and methods not shown. } The following method appears in a class other than Value. It is intended to sum all the num instance variables of the Value objects in its ArrayList parameter. /** Precondition: valueList is not null */ public static int getTotal(ArrayList<Value> valueList) { int total = 0; /* missing code */ return total; } Which of the following code segments can replace /* missing code */ so the getTotal method works as intended? for (int x = 0; x < valueList.size(); x++){ total += valueList.get(x).getNum();} for (Value v : valueList){ total += v.getNum();} for (Value v : valueList){ total += getNum(v);}

The following method is intended to remove all elements of an ArrayList of integers that are divisible by key and add the removed elements to a new ArrayList, which the method returns. public static ArrayList<Integer> match(ArrayList<Integer> numList, int key) { ArrayList<Integer> returnList = new ArrayList<Integer>(); int i = 0; while (i < numList.size()) { int num = numList.get(i); if (num % key == 0) { numList.remove(i); returnList.add(num); } i++; } return returnList; } As an example, if the method is called with an ArrayList containing the values [5, 2, 10, 20, 16] and the parameter key has the value 5, then numList should contain [2, 16] at the end of the method and an ArrayList containing [5, 10, 20] should be returned. Which of the following best explains why the method does not always work as intended?

The method skips some elements of numList during the traversal.
