Options- A. 8888
- B. 9999
- C. 9944
- D. 9988
- Correct Answer
- 9944
ExplanationTo find the largest 4 digit number exactly divisible by 88,
We should divide the largest possible 4 digit number by 88, and if we get any remainder than subtract it from that largest number.
The largest possible 4 digit number is 9999
Now,
88) 9999 (113

Correct Answer: 42437
Explanation:
The square of a natural number never ends in 7.
42437 is not the square of a natural number
Correct Answer: 222
Correct Answer: 8 and 5
Explanation:
Let the number be 476ab0
476ab0 is divisible by 3
=> 4 + 7 + 6 + a + b + 0 is divisible by 3
=> 17 + a + b is divisible by 3 ------------------------(i)
476ab0 is divisible by 11
[(4 + 6 + b) -(7 + a + 0)] is 0 or divisible by 11
=> [3 + (b - a)] is 0 or divisible by 11 --------------(ii)
Substitute the values of a and b with the values given in the choices and select the values which satisfies both Equation 1 and Equation 2.
if a=6 and b=2,
17 + a + b = 17 + 6 + 2 = 25 which is not divisible by 3 --- Does not meet equation(i).Hence this is not the answer
if a=8 and b=2,
17 + a + b = 17 + 8 + 2 = 27 which is divisible by 3 --- Meet equation(i)
[3 + (b - a)] = [3 + (2 - 8)] = -3 which is neither 0 nor divisible by 11---Does not meet equation(ii).Hence this is not the answer
if a=6 and b=5,
17 + a + b = 17 + 6 + 5 = 28 which is not divisible by 3 --- Does not meet equation (i) .Hence this is not the answer
if a=8 and b=5,
17 + a + b = 17 + 8 + 5 = 30 which is divisible by 3 --- Meet equation 1
[3 + (b - a)] = [3 + (5 - 8)] = 0 ---Meet equation 2
Since these values satisfies both equation 1 and equation 2, this is the answer

Correct Answer: 12⁄35
Explanation:
Let the numbers be a and b . Then, a + b = 12 and ab = 35.
| ∴ | a + b | = | 12 | ⟹ | ❨ | 1 | + | 1 | ❩ | = | 12 |
| ab | 35 | b | a | 35 |
| ∴ Sum of reciprocals of given numbers = | 12 |
| 35 |
Correct Answer: 9
Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
Sum of digits = (5 + 1 + 7 + x + 3 + 2 + 4) = (22 + x ), which must be divisible by 3.
∴ x = 2.
Correct Answer: 60
Explanation:
Let,
no. of rice bowl = x
no. of dal bowl = y
no. of meat bowl = z
Then, x + y + z = 65 ....(1)
Also given that, 2x = 3y = 4z
substituting value of y & z in terms of x i.e. y = 2x/3 and z = x/2 in eq (1),
We get x = 30.
As 1 rice bowl is shared between 2 guests,
Therefore, there are 60 guests.
