Expert Solution
Step 1

To say whether frequencies are consonant or disconsonant we have to calculate the difference. If the difference of the frequencies is lower than bandwidth then they are disconsonant and if difference greater than bandwidth then it is consonant. And in question we are asked to categorize depend upon critical band and we have a table of those critical band frequencies and bandwidths. The bandwidth will be nearly 100 up to central frequency 500 Hz

(1)200Hz and 280Hz

f1-f2=280-200=80Hz and it lower than 100.so it is disconsonant
