Correct Answer: 4171250
Explanation:
6674 x 625 = 6674 x (5)4
= 6674 x (104/24
= 66740000/16 = 4171250
Correct Answer: 10
Explanation:
As we know that given in question,
ax + by = 6 ........................ (i)
bx ? ay = 2 ........................ (ii)
On squaring the both equation and adding,
a2 x2 + b2 y2 + 2abxy + b2 x2 + a2 y2 ? 2abxy = 36 + 4
? x2 (a2 + b2) + y2 (a2 + b2) = 40
? (a2 + b2) (x2 + y2) = 40
As per given question, x2 + y2 = 40 , Put this value in above equation, we will get
? (a2 + b2) × 4 = 40
? a2 + b2 = 10
Correct Answer: 2/13
Explanation:
Clearly, n (S) = 52, there are 4 kings and 4 queens
? P(E) = n (E) / n (S) = 8/52 = 2/13
Correct Answer: 28
Explanation:
Lat the 4th proportional = N
Then, 4 : 16 : : 7 : N
? 4/16 = 7/N
? 4N = 7 x 16
? N = (7 x 16)/4 = 7 x 4 = 28
Correct Answer: ? 11856
Explanation:
CP = 100/70 = x 6384 = ? 9120
To gain 30%, SP = 130% of 9120
SP = (130/100) x 9120 = ? 11856
Correct Answer: 0.25
Explanation:
(2/3) x (6/8) x (2/3) x (3/4) = 1/4 = 0.25
Correct Answer: 12
Explanation:
Second number = (LCM x HCF) / first number
= (72 x 12)/ 24 = 36
