Are both correct?

Hi! Are both correct with the same meaning? Thanks, Fulvio

1. Choose a number from 1 and 50.

2. Choose a number from 1 to 50.

Not if you want to have 50 numbers to choose from. "Choose a number from 1 and 50" means you can only choose 1 or 50 (two numbers). "Choose a number from 1 to 50" means choose any number starting a 1 and going up to 50.
