Question :11

The digits of a three-digit number A are written in the reverse order to form another three-digit number B. If B > A and B– A is perfectly divisible by 7, then which of the following is necessarily true ?

Answer: (c)

Let the 3 digits of number A be x, y and z

Hence A = 100x + 10y + z

On reversing the digits of number A,

we get the number B i.e., z y x.

∴ B = 100z + 10y + x

As B > A ⇒ z > x ...(i)

B – A = 99z – 99x = 99(z – x)

As 99 is not divisible by 7

so (z – x) has to be divisible by 7. ...(ii)

Using (i) & (ii), the only possible values of z and x are (8, 1) and (9, 2)

So the minimum and maximum range of A are 108 and 299, which Î106 < A < 305

Question :12

A six digit number which is consisting of only one digits either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, e.g., 111111, 222222... etc. This number is always divisible by :

Answer: (d)

Since the 7, 11 and 13 all are the factors of such a number so (d) is the correct answer.

Question :13

On dividing 2272 as well as 875 by 3-digit number N, we get the same remainder. The sum of the digits of N is:

Answer: (c)

Clearly, (2272 – 875) = 1397, is exactly divisible by N.

Now, 1397 = 11 × 127

∴ The required 3-digit number is 127, the sum of whose digits is 10.

Question :14

If the number 517 * 324 is completely divisible by 3, then the smallest whole number in place of * will be:

Answer: (a)

Sum of digits = (5 + 1 + 7 + x + 3 + 2 + 4) = (22 + x), which must be divisible by 3.

∴ x = 2.

Question :15

A number consists of two digits, whose sum is 7. If the digits are reversed, the number is increased by 27. The product of digits of the number is

Answer: (b)

Let the number be (10x + y)

According to question

⇒ x + y = 7 --- (i)

(10y + x) – (10x + y) = 27

⇒ 9(y – x) = 27

⇒ y – x = 3 --- (ii)

From eq (i) and (ii)

x = 2; y = 5

so x × y = 2 × 5 = 10

So, option (c) is correct.
