Question Detail

Simplify (212 * 212 + 312 * 312 )

132288
142088
142188
142288

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Trick: Above equation can be solved by using following formula
\begin{aligned}
(a^2 + b^2) = \frac{1}{2}((a+b)^2 + (a-b)^2)
\end{aligned}

1. What least number must be subtracted from 427398 so that remaining number is divisible by 15

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

On dividing 427398 by 15 we get the remainder 3, so 3 should be subtracted

2. What least value should be replaced by * in 223*431 so the number become divisible by 9

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Trick: Number is divisible by 9, if sum of all digits is divisible by 9, so (2+2+3+*+4+3+1) = 15+* should be divisible by 9,
15+3 will be divisible by 9,
so that least number is 3.

3. How many terms are there in 2,4,8,16,....,1024

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

It is a GP. with r = 2, ie \begin{aligned} 2^1, 2^2, 2^3... \end{aligned}
If number of terms is n. Then,
\begin{aligned} 2 \times 2^{n-1} = 1024 \end{aligned} =>
\begin{aligned} 2^{n-1} = 512 \end{aligned}
or \begin{aligned} 2 \times 2^{n-1} = 2^9 \end{aligned}
so n-1 = 9 => n = 10

4. What is the largest 4 digit number exactly divisible by 88

9900
9999
9988
9944

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Largest 4 digit number is 9999
After doing 9999 ÷ 88 we get remainder 55
Hence largest 4 digit number exactly divisible by 88 = 9999 - 55 = 9944

5. 1939392 * 625

1212120010
1212120000
1212120011
1212121010

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Trick: when multiplying with \begin{aligned} 5^n
\end{aligned} then put n zeros to the right of multiplicand and divide the number with \begin{aligned} 2^n
\end{aligned}
So using this we can solve this question in much less
time.
\begin{aligned} 1939392 \times 5^4 = \frac {19393920000}{16} = 1212120000
\end{aligned}
