MODERN MATHS MCQs
:
C
First we fix A as the first letter
No. of words possible with A as the first letter = 4! = 24
No. of words possible with M as the first letter= 4!2! = 12
No. of words possible with RAA as the first 3 letters = 2
No. of words possible with RAM as the first 3 letters = 2
Next word will be RASAM
Rank= 41

B
X1X2X33X4=15Case 1:X1X2X33=15Case 2:X1X2X36=15Case 3:X1X2X39=15Case 4:X1X2X312=15
Case 1:
X1+X2+X3=12; Total number of natural number solution = 11C2=55
Case 2:
X1+X2+X3=9; Total number of natural number solution = 8C2=28
Case 3:
X1+X2+X3=6; Total number of natural number solution = 5C2=10
Case 4:
X1+X2+X3=3; Total number of natural number solution = 1
Total number of natural number solution = 55 + 28 + 10 + 1 = 94

B
This is a question based on S‘aD with a varying lower limit.
Take out 1+2+3=6 from the RHS. Equation changes to
A+B+C = 4. Answer will the arrangement of 4 zeroes and 2 ones = 6C2
:
No of ways in which the 3 correct envelopes can be selected= 7C3=35
Derangement of 4 envelopes & letters = 9 (derangement value for 4 is 9)
Total No of ways of arrangement = 9×35 = 315
:
B
To form a rectangle we need four intersecting lines.
The first two parallel lines can be selected in 5C2 ways and the other two parallel lines can be selected in 6C2 ways.
Total number of parallelograms which can be formed= 10×15=150
:
If the first digit and last digit of the four digit number needs to be even, then we have to choose numbers out of 2, 6 and 8
The first digit can be chosen in 3 ways and the last digit in 2 ways = 3×2=6 ways
The remaining two digits can be chosen and arranged among the remaining 4 digits in 4P2 ways = 12 ways
Total number of ways = 6×12=72 ways
:
B
0 balls are going to basket A. hence we will consider the distribution only in the remaining 3 baskets
B+C+D = 5
Total = 7C2=21
:
D
If B, does not want any neighbour among D,E,F, B needs to be seated between only A and C. A and C can be arranged in 2! Ways
Similarly, E who does not want to be seated next to A,B or C will be seated between the other two( D,F). Those two can be arranged in 2! Ways.
Total number of arrangements= 2×2=4
:
A
Use the concept of grouping, for a three digit number ABC
A+B+C = 10, A >1
It changes to A + B + C = 9
Number of possible solutions = 11C2=55
:
B
Let’s number the baskets as A,B,C and D
With the first constraint, 2 of the balls are going to basket 2(B), hence we have 5-2=3 balls left to distribute among the remaining baskets.
A+C+D = 3
Number of distributions possible = 5C2 = 10
