Correct Answer: FALSE
Explanation:
Any integer 'i' can be written as i = i/1, which is a rational number. Clearly, 7/2,-5/4, etc... are rational numbers but they are not integers.
Hence, from the above analysis, every integer is a rational number but a rational number need not be an integer.
Therefore the given statement that 'Every rational number is an integer' is FALSE.
Correct Answer: 166 2/3 million
Explanation:
5% - 2% = 3%
=> 3% ------ 5 million bags
100% ---- ?
=> 166 2/3 million bags.
Correct Answer: Middle finger
Explanation:
Clearly, while counting the numbers associated to the thumb will be 1,9,17,25,.........
i.e., numbers of the form (8n + 1 ).
where n=1,2,3...
Since 1994 = 249 × 8 + 2, so 1993 shall correspond to the thumb and 1994 to the index finger and 1995 to the middle finger.
Correct Answer: All the above
Explanation:
The Multiples of 18 are 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, ....
Correct Answer: 91
Explanation:
Here in the given numbers 91 is a Composite number. Since it has factors of 7 and 13 other than 1 and itself.
Composite Numbers :
A composite number is a positive integer which is not prime (i.e., which has factors other than 1 and itself).
Examples :: 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 15, 18, 20, ...
Correct Answer: 200 days
Explanation:
As given
200 cats kill 200 mice in 200 days
1 cats kill 1 mouse in 200 days
Then
8 cats kill 8 mice in 200 days.
Correct Answer: 54 min
Explanation:
If virus is K in 1hr i.e 60 min
then in 57 min it was K/2 as it doubles every 3 minutes
=> In 54 min it was K/4.
At 54 minutes it was K/4.
Correct Answer: 45/4
Explanation:
As clear from the figure itself, triangle OQX and triangle O'PX are similar.
So,
OQ/O'P = OX/O'X
=> OX = (7/9)xO'X
And since, OX + O'X = 20
=> (7/9)xO'X + O'X = 20
=> O'X = 45/4
Correct Answer: 30
Explanation:
Then, A:B = 2:3 and B:C = 5:8
= (5 x 3/5) : (8 x 3/5) = 3:24/5
A:B:C = 2:3:24/5
= 10:15:24 => B = 98 x 15/49 = 30.
Correct Answer: z < x < y
Explanation:
x = ?8 - ?7 = 1/(?8 + ?7) and y = ?6 - ?5 = 1/(?6 + ?5) and z = ?10 - 3 = 1/(?10 + 3)
As (?8 + ?7) > (?6 + ?5), (?8 - ?7) < (?6 - ?5)
As (?10 + 3) > (?8 + ?7) > (?6 + ?5)
z < x < y.
