Question :16

If N = 1! – 2! + 3! – 4! +…..+ 47! – 48! + 49!, then what is the unit digit of $N^N$ ?

Answer: (d)

The unit digit of every term from 5! to 49! is 0.

Also, 1! – 2! + 3! – 4! = 1 – 2 + 6 – 24 = –19.

Hence, the unit digit of N will be 10 – 9 = 1.

The unit digit of $N^N$ will also be 1.

Question :17

The sum of two numbers is 90 and the greater number exceeds thrice the smaller number by 14. The number is

Answer: (c)

Let greater number = x

smaller number = y

∴ x + y = 90 ...(1)

and x – 3y = 14 ...(2)

By equation (1) + (2)

x = 71, y = 19

∴ smaller number = 19

greater number = 71

Question :18

$x^2 – 3y^2 = 1376$ How many integer solutions exist for the given equation?

Answer: (d)

$3y^2 = x^2 – 1376$

As we can see L.H.S. is definitely a multiple of 3 and in R.H.S. 1376 leaves a remainder of 2 when divided by 3.

There are three possibilities for x in R.H.S:

  1. If x is multiple of 3, so is $x^2$ , and R.H.S. will leave a remainder of 1 when divided by 3.
  2. If x is of the form 3m + 1, $x^2$ will be of the form 3n + 1 and R.H.S will leave a remainder of 2. m, n∈ N
  3. If x is of the form 3m + 2, $x^2$ will be of the form 3n + 1 and R.H.S. will leave a remainder of 2. m, n∈ N So R.H.S. can never be a multiple of 3, while L.H.S. is always a multiple of 3. Hence no real solution exists.

Question :19

A three-digit number is divisible by 11 and has its digit in the unit’s place equal to 1. The number is 297 more than the number obtained by reversing the digits. What is the number ?

Answer: (d)

On taking option (d).

The reverse digit of 451 is 154.

Now, 154 + 297 = 451 is equal to the original number.

Question :20

What is the total number of three digit three digit numbers with unit digit 7 and divisible by 11?

Answer: (b)

The total number of thee digit numbers with unit digit 7 and divisible by 11 are 187, 297, 407, 517, 627, 737, 847, 957.

∴ Total numbers = 8
