  4.     I, L
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> L, C
:
B

In the Roman numeral system, 'X' can be subtracted from L and C only. (L= 50) and (C = 100) For example:


XL = 50 - 10 = 40 
XC = 100 -10 = 90
We can not write XD or XM.


Question 32.


The smallest odd composite number is :


  1.     3
  2.     5
  3.     7
  4.     9

Answer: Option D. -> 9
:
D

The given options of odd numbers are: 3, 5, 7, 9.
Here 3, 5 and 7 are prime numbers.


So, 9 is the smallest odd composite number.
 


Question 33.


The successor of 101099 is _____.


  1.     101010
  2.     101100
  3.     100100
  4.     110000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 101100
:
B

 The successor of a number is the number that comes right after it.


Thus, the successor of 101099 is
101099 + 1 = 101100.


Question 34.


The difference between the predecessor and the successor of 1 million is ____.


  1.     1
  2.     99999
  3.     2
  4.     100001
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 2
:
C

1 million = 1,000,000


The successor of a number is one more than that number and the predecessor of a number is one less than that number.


The successor of 1,000,000 = 1000000 + 1 = 1000001
The predecessor of 1,000,000 = 1000000 - 1 = 999999


The difference between the successor and the predecessor of 1,000,000 = 1000001 - 999999 = 2.
In fact the difference between the successor and predecessor of any number will always be 2 !! Try it yourself


 


Question 35.


CMXLV is equal to ____.


  1.     495
  2.     965
  3.     945
  4.     445
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 945
:
C

CM = 900


XL = 40 


V = 5


CM     XL    V 
900 + 40 + 5 = 945


Therefore CMXLV = 945.


Question 36.


How many tens make a crore?


  1.     100000
  2.     1000
  3.     10000000
  4.     1000000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 1000000
:
D

1 crore =1,00,00,000
Number of tens in 1 crore
=1000000010 =1000000


1000000 tens make 1 crore.

 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 58000
:
C

58195 Rounded Off To Nearest Thousand Is 
To round off a number to its nearest thousand we check the last three digits of the number i.e. the digits at the hundreds place, tens place and ones place. In case the number formed by these is 500 or above, we round up the number to the higher value and in case the number is less than 500, we round it down to the lower value.


The given number is 58195. Our options are 58000 and 59000. The last three digits of 58195 are 195.
195 < 500.


Therefore 58195 when rounding off to the nearest thousand is 58000.
