Question :21

Which one of the following numbers is divisible by 11?

Answer: (d)

We know that, If the difference between the sum of digits at even places and sum of digits at odd places is (0) or multiple of 11, then the number is divisible by 11.

From options,

(a) 45678940

Sum of even places = 5 + 7 + 9 + 0 = 21

Sum of odd palaces = 4 + 6 + 8 + 4 = 22

Their difference = 22 – 21 = 1 ≠ 0

(b) 54857266

Sum of even places = 4 + 5 + 2 + 6 = 17

Sum of odd palaces = 5 + 8 + 7 + 6 = 26

Their difference = 26 – 17 = 9 ≠ 0

(c) 87524398

Sum of even places = 7 + 2 + 3 + 8 = 20

Sum of odd palaces = 8 + 5 + 4 + 9 = 26

Their difference = 26 – 20 = 6 ≠ 0

(d) 93455120

Sum of even places = 3 + 5 + 1 + 0 = 9

Sum of odd palaces = 9 + 4 + 5 + 2 = 20

Difference = 20 – 9 = 11

It is divisible by 11.

Question :22

If among 54 students each contributes Rs. 60, the amount to buy new books for the library can be collected . If 9 students drop out how much additional amount does each student have to pay ?

Answer: (b)

Sum to be collected from 54 students

= 60×54 = 3240 Rs.

Sum collected from 45 students

= 60 × 45 = 2700 Rs.

Difference = 3240 - 2700 = 540 Rs.

∴ Additional amount to be paid by each student

= $540/45$ = Rs. 12

Question :23

A student was asked to divide a number by 6 and add 12 to the quotient. He, however, first added 12 to the number and then divided it by 6, getting 112 as the answer. The correct answer should have been :

Answer: (a)

Let the number be x.

Then, as per the operation undertook by the student, we have

${x + 12}/6$ ⇒ x = 660

Hence, the correct answer = $660/6 + 12 = 122$

Question :24

When a natural number n is divided by 4, the remainder is 3. What is the remainder when 2n is divided by 4?

Answer: (a)

When a number n is divided by 4 then remainder is 3.

Now, the number is double then remainder is also double.

So, remainder = 6

But remainder never greater than its divisor.

So, remainder = 6 – 4 = 2

Question :25

What is the last digit in $7^402 + 3^402$ ?

Answer: (b)

Here 7, and 3 both are repeat its unit digit after four times.

= $7^(4 × 100 + 2) + 3^(4 × 100 + 2)$

= $7^{4 × 100} × 7^2 + 3^{4 × 100} × 3^{2}$

= 9 + 9 = 18

So, its unit digit = 8
