- Question
How many terms are there in the G.P. 3, 6, 12, 24, ... , 384?
Options- A. 8
- B. 9
- C. 10
- D. 11
- E. 7
- Correct Answer
- 8
ExplanationHere a = 3 and r = 6 = 2. Let the number of terms be n. 3 Then, tn = 384 ⟹ arn-1 = 384
⟹ 3 x 2n - 1 = 384
⟹ 2n-1 = 128 = 27
⟹ n - 1 = 7
⟹ n = 8
∴ Number of terms = 8.

Correct Answer: 56094
Explanation:
35423 317 x 89 = 317 x (90 -1 ) + 7164 = (317 x 90 - 317) + 41720 = (28530 - 317) ----- = 28213 84307 - 28213 ----- 56094 -----
Correct Answer: 945
Explanation:
Required numbers are 10, 15, 20, 25, ..., 95
This is an A.P. in which a = 10, d = 5 and l = 95.
tn = 95 ⟹ a + (n - 1)d = 95
⟹ 10 + (n - 1) x 5 = 95
⟹ (n - 1) x 5 = 85
⟹ (n - 1) = 17
⟹ n = 18
| ∴Requuired Sum = | n | (a + l) | = | 18 | x (10 + 95) = (9 x 105) = 945. |

Correct Answer: 584
Explanation:
5 | x z = 13 x 1 + 12 = 25
--------------
9 | y - 4 y = 9 x z + 8 = 9 x 25 + 8 = 233
--------------
13| z - 8 x = 5 x y + 4 = 5 x 233 + 4 = 1169
--------------

Therefore, on dividing the number by 585, remainder = 584.
Correct Answer: 8
Explanation:
Let the two consecutive odd integers be (2 n + 1) and (2 n + 3). Then,
(2n + 3)2 - (2n + 1)2 = (2n + 3 + 2n + 1) (2n + 3 - 2n - 1)
= (4n + 4) x 2
= 8(n + 1), which is divisible by 8.
Correct Answer: 725117481
Explanation:
| 72519 x 9999 | = 72519 x (10000 - 1) |
| = 72519 x 10000 - 72519 x 1 | |
| = 725190000 - 72519 | |
| = 725117481. |
Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
| Given Exp. = | (a + b)2 + (a - b)2 | = | 2(a2 + b2) | = 2 |
| (a2 + b2) | (a2 + b2) |
Correct Answer: 3125736
Explanation:
24 = 3 x8, where 3 and 8 co-prime.
Clearly, 35718 is not divisible by 8, as 718 is not divisible by 8.
Similarly, 63810 is not divisible by 8 and 537804 is not divisible by 8.
Consider option (D),
Sum of digits = (3 + 1 + 2 + 5 + 7 + 3 + 6) = 27, which is divisible by 3.
Also, 736 is divisible by 8.
∴ 3125736 is divisible by (3 x 8), i.e., 24.
Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
6 = 3 x 2. Clearly, 5 * 2 is divisible by 2. Replace * by x
Then, (5 + x + 2) must be divisible by 3. So, x = 2.
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Let the number be x and on dividing x by 5, we get k as quotient and 3 as remainder.
∴ x = 5k + 3
⟹ x2 = (5k + 3)2
= (25k2 + 30k + 9)
= 5(5k2 + 6k + 1) + 4
∴On dividing x2 by 5, we get 4 as remainder.
Correct Answer: 57.5
Explanation:
| Given Exp. = 35 + 15 x | 3 | = 35 + | 45 | = 35 + 22.5 = 57.5 |
