Question : 16 [SSC CGL Prelim 2002]
Simplify : $8{1/2} - [3{1/4} ÷(1{1/4} - 1/2(1{1/2} - 1/ 3 - {1/6}))]$
a) $2/9$
b) 4$1/2$
c) 9$1/2$
d) 4$1/6$
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using Rule 1,
$8{1/2} - [3{1/4} ÷(1{1/4} - 1/2(1{1/2} - 1/ 3 - {1/6}))]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} ÷({5/4} - 1/2({3/2} - 1/ 3 - {1/6}))]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} ÷({5/4} - 1/2({9 - 2 - 1}/6))]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} ÷({5/4} - 1/2 × {6/6})]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} ÷({5/4} - 1/2)]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} ÷({5 - 2}/4)]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} ÷ {3/4}]$
$17/2 - [{13/4} × 4/3] = 17/2 - 13/3$
= ${51 - 26}/6 = 25/6 = 4{1/6}$
Question : 17
The value of ${0.1 × 0.1 × 0.1 + 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.2 + 0.3 × 0.3 × 0.3 - 3 × 0.1 × 0.2 × 0.3}/{0.1 × 0.1 + 0.2 × 0.2 + 0.3 × 0.3 - 0.1 × 0.2 - 0.2 × 0.3 - 0.3 × 0.1}$ is
a) 0.2
b) 0.006
c) 0
d) 0.6
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using (x) of Basic Formulae
Let 0.1 = a, 0.2 = b and 0.3 = c
Then, we have,
${a×a×a+b×b×b+c×c×c-3abc}/{a×a+b×b+c×c - ab - bc - ac}$
= ${a^3+b^3+c^3 - 3abc}/{a^2+b^2+c^2 - ab -bc - ac}$
= a + b + c
= 0.1 + 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.6
Question : 18 [SSC CPO S.I.2003]
If I = $3/4 ÷ {5/6}$, II = 3 ÷ [(4 ÷ 5) ÷ 6], III = [3 ÷ (4 ÷ 5)] ÷ 6, IV = 3 ÷ 4 (5 ÷ 6) then
a) All are equal
b) I and II are equal
c) I and III are equal
d) I and IV are equal
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using Rule 1,
I. = $3/4 × 6/5 = 9/10$
II. = 3 ÷ $[4/5 × 1/6] = 3 ÷ {2/15} = 45/2$
III. = $[3 ÷ {4/5}] ÷ 6 = {15/4} ÷ 6 = 5/8$
IV. =$3 ÷ {4} × 5/6 = 3 ÷ {10/3} = 9/10$
Obviously, (I) and (IV) are equal
Question : 19 [SSC CPO S.I.2003]
$1/30 + 1/42 + 1/56 + 1/72 + 1/90 + 1/110$ = ?
a) $6/55$
b) $√{2}2/27$
c) $5/27$
d) $1/9$
Answer »Answer: (a)
Using Rule 2,
$1/{5×6} + 1/{6×7} + 1/{7×8} + 1/{8×9} + 1/{9×10} + 1/{10×11}$
= $1/5 - 1/6 + 1/6 - 1/7 + 1/7 - 1/8 + 1/8 - 1/9 +1/9 - 1/10 +1/10 - 1/11 +1/11$
= $1/5 - 1/11 ={11 - 5}/55 = 6/55$
Question : 20
$9 - 1{2/9} of 3{3/11} ÷ 5{1/7} of {7/9}$ is equal to :
a) $3/4$
b) 8
c) 8$32/81$
d) 9
Answer »Answer: (b)
Using Rule 1,
Expression
= $9 - 11/9 of {36/11} ÷ {36/7} of 7/9$
= $9 - 11/9 × {36/11} ÷ {36/7} × 7/9$
= 9 - 4 ÷ 4
= $9 - 4 × 1/4$ = 9 - 1 = 8
