Question : 1

The sum of first sixty numbers from one to sixty is divisible by

a) 59

b) 13

c) 61

d) 60

Answer: (c)

Sum of first 60 numbers

= ${60(60+ 1)}/2$ = ${60× 61}/2$ = 1830

The number 1830 is divisible by 61.

Question : 2

Two numbers, when divided by 17, leave remainders 13 and 11 respectively. If the sum of those two numbers is divided by 17, the remainder will be

a) 11

b) 13

c) 4

d) 7

Answer: (d)

First number (X) = 17x + 13

Second number (Y) = 17y + 11

∴${X + Y}/17$ = ${17(x + y)}/17 + {13 + 11}/17$

∴Required remainder = Remainder obtained on dividing

11 + 13

i.e. 24 by 17 = 7

Question : 3

When a number is divided by 24, the remainder is 16. The remainder when the same number is divided by 12 is

a) 4

b) 3

c) 8

d) 6

Answer: (a)

Required remainder = 16 – 12 = 4

(because 24 is a multiple of 12.)

Question : 4

The smallest number to be added to 1000, so that 45 divides the sum exactly, is :

a) 80

b) 35

c) 10

d) 20

Answer: (b)

1000 = (45 × 22) + 10

∴ 45 – 10 = 35 to be added.

So, the smallest number to be added to 1000 to make the sum exactly divisible by 45 is 35.

Question : 5

In a division sum, the divisor is 10 times the quotient and 5 times the remainder. If the remainder is 46, then the dividend is

a) 4306

b) 4236

c) 5336

d) 4336

Answer: (c)

Divisor = 5 × Remainder = 5 × 46 = 230

Quotient = $230/10$ = 23

∴ Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

= 230 × 23 + 46

= 5290 + 46 = 5336

Question : 6

A six digit number is formed by repeating a three digit number; for example, 256, 256 or 678, 678 etc. Any number of this form is always exactly divisible by :

a) 11 only

b) 7 only

c) 1001

d) 13 only

Answer: (c)

The number (x y z x y z) can be written, after giving corresponding weightage of the places at which the digits occur, as 100000 x + 10000y + 1000z + 100x + 10y + z

= 100100x + 10010y + 1001z

= 1001 (100x + 10y + z)

Since 1001 is a factor, the number is divisible by 1001.

7 × 11 × 13 = 1001

As the number is divisible by 1001, it will also be divisible by all three namely, 7, 11 and 13 and not by only one of these because all three are factors of 1001.

So, the answer is 1001.
