Question 21. What is the unit digit of (628322)?
  1.    7
  2.    6
  3.    3
  4.    Cannot be determined
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 7
:
A
Unit digit of 628 is 6 and unit digit of 322 is 9 (since 22=4k+2). So, unit digit of given expression is (169)=7.
Question 22. A lies between -4 and 10. B lies between 20 and 50. BA lies between?
  1.    2, 25
  2.    0,50
  3.    5,12.5
  4.    none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> none of these
:
D
Find the least value and the highest value of BA
Least BA=50(1)=50
Highest BA=500=
(50,)
Question 23.  What is the remainder when 1091 is divided by 13? 
  1.    0
  2.    1
  3.    2
  4.    none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> none of these
:
D
option d
10113R=10
10213R=9
10313R=(1)
Thus,
10613R=1
Since, 10613R=1=103×10313R=(1)×(1)=1
Hence we get 1090R=1, we are left with 101 which will give a remainder of 10, hence the remainder will be 10 or option d.
Question 24.  When (629)24 is divided by 21, find the remainder.
  1.    1
  2.    2
  3.    5
  4.    11
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 1
:
A
629 divided by 21 remainder is -1. Thus the question changes to 12421 Remainder =+1
Question 25. The 66th term of the series is
  1.    odd
  2.    even
  3.    cannot be determined
  4.    none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> even
:
B
OPTION (B)
Observe the pattern
112358
Every 3rd term is even. Hence a term which is a multiple of 3 will be even. 66 is a multiple of 3. Hence, the 66th term is even
Question 26. A number is formed by writing the same digit 8 times. That number is always divisible by?
  1.    7
  2.    13
  3.    19
  4.    none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> none of these
:
D
Take an example of 11111111. This can be any of the 8 digits.
It would be divisible by 13 and 7 as if we could divide it into equal even groups of 3.
For 19, we need to divide it into even groups of 8. This is not true
This number is divisible by 11, where the rule of divisibility is sum of digits at odd places- sum of digits at even places.
Hence, Answer is none of these.
Question 27. How many factors of 24000 are odd numbers?
  1.    32
  2.    7
  3.    16
  4.    none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> none of these
:
D
Answer=option d
Prime factorize 24000=26×3×53
Take out 26 and then find the number of factors. This will give all the odd factors
In this case, number of factors =(3+1)×(1+1)=4×2=8
Question 28. Given that p,q,r,s,t,u are integers and p+q+r+s+t+u=2005, what is the minimum value of (1)p+(1)q+(1)r+(1)s+(1)t+(1)u?
  1.    0
  2.    -2
  3.    -3
  4.    none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> none of these
:
D
p+q+r+s+t+u=2005 of the 6 integers, the number of integers that can be odd is 5,3 or 1. In the expression (1)p+(1)q+(1)r+(1)s+(1)t+(1)u
1)When one integer is even and the others are odd, then only one among is +1 and others are -1 each. Hence the sum of the terms is -5 + 1 = -4.
2)When three of the integers are even, then three of the terms are +1 each and the remaining three are -1 each. Hence the sum is 0.
3)When five of the integers are even, then five terms will be +1 each and the other term is -1. Hence the sum is 4. The minimum value of the sum is -4.
Question 29. Find the ten’s digit of 74288
  1.    3
  2.    6
  3.    7
  4.    8
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 7
:
C
Ans. (c)
74288=(37×2)288 (refer demo tutorial for last 2 digits technique)
37288×2288
(374)72×(2)288
(372×372)72×(__56)
(69×69)72×(__56)
(__61)72×(__56)
(__21)×(__56)=__76. answer is 7
Question 30. If the 12th term is 144 and the 14th term is 377. What is the 15th term?
  1.    502
  2.    401
  3.    610
  4.    cannot be determined
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 610
:
C
option (c)
Tn+1=Tn1+Tn.12th term=144
14th term =12th term +13th term
144+13th term=377
13th=233
15th term =13th term +14th term =233+377=610
