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: (47 + 43)
Explanation:
When n is odd, ( x n + a n ) is always divisible by ( x + a ).
∴Each one of (4743 + 4343) and (4747 + 4347) is divisible by (47 + 43).
Correct Answer: 5
Explanation:
Formula: (Divisor*Quotient) + Remainder = Dividend.
Soln:
(56*Q)+29 = D -------(1)
D%8 = R -------------(2)
From equation(2),
((56*Q)+29)%8 = R.
=> Assume Q = 1.
=> (56+29)%8 = R.
=> 85%8 = R
=> 5 = R.
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
| Given Exp. = | (a + b)2 - (a - b)2 | = | 4ab | = 4 |
| ab | ab |
Correct Answer: 30
Explanation:
(3 25 + 3 26 + 3 27 + 3 28 ) = 3 25 x (1 + 3 + 3 2 + 3 3 ) = 3 25 x 40
= 324 x 3 x 4 x 10
= (324 x 4 x 30), which is divisible by30.
Correct Answer: 4⁄5
Explanation:
| Let the required fraction be x. Then | 1 | - x = | 9 |
| x | 20 |
| ∴ | 1 - x2 | = | 9 |
| x | 20 |
⟹ 20 - 20x2 = 9x
⟹ 20x2 + 9x - 20 = 0
⟹ 20x2 + 25x - 16x - 20 = 0
⟹ 5x(4x + 5) - 4(4x + 5) = 0
⟹ (4x + 5)(5x - 4) = 0
| x = | 4 |

Correct Answer: -2071
Explanation:
| Given Exp. | = -84 x (30 - 1) + 365 |
| = -(84 x 30) + 84 + 365 | |
| = -2520 + 449 | |
| = -2071 |
Correct Answer: (296 + 1)
Explanation:
Let 2 32 = x . Then, (2 32 + 1) = ( x + 1).
Let (x + 1) be completely divisible by the natural number N. Then,
(296 + 1) = [(232)3 + 1] = (x3 + 1) = (x + 1)(x2 - x + 1), which is completely divisible by N, since (x + 1) is divisible by N.
Correct Answer: 1200
Explanation:
3251 Let 4207 - x = 3007 + 587 Then, x = 4207 - 3007 = 1200 + 369 ---- 4207 ----
Correct Answer: 1035
Explanation:
Let S n =(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 45). This is an A.P. in which a =1, d =1, n = 45.
| Sn = | n | [2a + (n - 1)d] | = | 45 | x [2 x 1 + (45 - 1) x 1] | = | ❨ | 45 | x 46 | ❩ | = (45 x 23) |
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
= 45 x (20 + 3)
= 45 x 20 + 45 x 3
= 900 + 135
= 1035.
Shorcut Method:
| Sn = | n(n + 1) | = | 45(45 + 1) | = 1035. |
