2-ethylpentane is a WRONG NAME. It is actually 3-methylhexane.

Draw its structure and remember to select the LONGEST chain, and then name it accordingly. You'll then realise that its actually 3-methylhexane, and not 2-ethylpentane.

However, if your question was asked in any of your tests, then the answer will surely be 3-methylhexane.
