Question :26

Deepak has some hens and some goats. If the total number of animal heads is 90 and the total number of animal feet is 248, what is the total number of goats Deepak has ?

Answer: (b)

(H) Hens has one head and two feet.

(G) Goats has one head and four feet.

According to question,

H + G = 90 ...... (i)

2H + 4G = 248 ..... (ii)

Multiplying by 2 in equation (i) and subtract

2H + 2G = 180
2H + 4G = 248
---
- 2G = - 68

∴ G = 34

∴ Number of goats = 34

Put the value of G in equation (i)

H + 34 = 90 ⇒ H = 56

Question :27

In an examination, a student was asked to divide a certain number by 8. By mistake he multiplied it by 8 and got the answer 2016 more than the correct answer. What was the number?

Answer: (a)

Let the original number be x

ATQ

$8x – x/8 = 2016$

$x[63/8] = 2016$

8 by solving

x = 256

Question :28

What is the last digit in the expansion of $(2457)^754$?

Answer: (d)

$(2457)^754$

We know that a unit digit of $(7)^4$ is 1.

Unit digit of $(2457)^754 = (2457)^{188 × 4 + 2}$

= $(2457)^{188 × 4} . (2457)^2 → [(2457)^4]^188. 9 → (1)^188 .9→ 9$

Question :29

For a positive integer n, let $p_n$ denote the product of the digits of n, and $s_n$ denote the sum of the digits of n. The number of integers between 10 and 1000 for which $p_n + s_n$ = n is

Answer: (d)

The no. can be 2 or 3 digit.

Firstly let n be the two digit no.

Therefore, n = 10x + y

$p_n + s_n$ = n ⇒ xy + x + y = 10 x + y

⇒ xy – 9x = 0 ⇒ y = 9 as x ≠ 0

So the numbers can be 19, 29.........99, i.e., 9 values.

For 3 digits n = 100x + 10y + z

⇒ xyz + x + y + z = 100x + 10y + z

⇒ xyz = 99x + 9y or xz = ${9(11x + y)}/y$

It can be verified using various values of y that this equation do not have any solution.

E.g. : For y = 9, x(z – 11) = y

which is not possible.

So in all 9 integers.

Question :30

Twice the square of a number is more than eleven times the number by 21. The number can have which of the following values.

Answer: (a)

Suppose the number is x.

$2x^2 – 11x = 21$

$2x^2 – 11x – 21$ = 0

$2x^2 – 14x + 3x – 21$ = 0

2x (x – 7) + 3(x – 7) = 0

(x – 7) (2x + 3) = 0

∴ $x = 7$ or $- 3/2$
