Hints and Solution
- Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder = 8 × 15 + 0 = 120
The correct answer = 120 is divided by 3 = 40
- 2/3= 0.66, 7/5= 1.4, 6/5= 1.2, 7/8= 0.875
- multiples of 3 less than 25
= 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
So, total number of multiples = 8
- LCM = 2 × 3 × 5 × 2 = 60
- 2.25 = 225/100 or 9/4
- Total number of 4 digits = 9999 – 999 = 9000
- Nearest hundred number = 37500
- 10101 × 17 = 171717
- Difference = 10170 – 8369 = 1801
- Greatest number = 7510
- Least number = 33719
- 316 = 1 × 316 = 2 × 158 = 4 × 79
Factors of 316 = 1, 2, 4, 79, 158,
316 = So answer is 8.
- Product of two numbers = 5/4
One number = 5/6
Other number = 5/4 divided by 5/6 = 5/4 × 6/5 = 3/2
- In the given series, all numbers are prime.
Therefore, the next prime number is 13.
- 1.25 = 125/100 = 5/4
- LCM = 2 × 2 × 3 × 2 × 5 = 120
- 178 × 34 = 6052 or 34 = 6052/178
34/10 = 6052/(178 × 10)
or 3.4 = 60.52 is divided by 17.8
- 0.075 = 0.075 × 100 = 7.5%
(To express number into per cent, It is multiplied by 100)
- 15 multiply 4 – 10 divide 5 = 15 × 4 – 2 = 60 – 2 = 58
- Let the capacity of drum be x L.
According to question,
x – 2x/3 = 50
or x/3 = 50
or x = 3 × 50 = 150 L
- The CP of 2 dozen brushes
= 2 × 10 = Rs 20
SP of 1 brush = Rs 1
SP of 2 dozen or 24 brushes
= 1 × 24 = Rs 24
Profit = Rs (24 – 20) = Rs 4
- Maximum price of the oranges will
be the HCF of 300 paise, 525 paise and 675 paise
HCF = 75
Maximum price = 75 paise
- Departure of bus from Delhi
= 10 : 15 am
Time taken in the journey
= 6 h 30 min
Arrival of bus at Dehradun
= 10 : 15 + 6 : 30
= 16 : 45 or 4 : 45 pm
- Time = Distance/Speed
Time = 350/75 or 14/3 h
Or 4 h 40 minute
- x + y = 100, x – y = 37,
x2 – y2 = (x + y) (x – y)
= 100 × 37 = 3700
