  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 82.


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 83.


Findthe remainder when 10347 is divided by 3.


  1.     1
  2.     -1
  3.     0
  4.     2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 0
:
C

option (c)


Any power of 10 when divided by 3 gives a remainder of 1. Also,7 divided by 3 remainder is 1. Therefore individual remainders are 1 and 1.


Thus, 1-1=0. Answer is 0


Question 84.


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 85.


 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 86.


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 87.


Given that p is a prime number. p2[p271p] is always divisible by?


  1.     25
  2.     23
  3.     27
  4.     none of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> none of these
:
D

According to fermat's theorem " If P is a prime number and N is prime to P, then NpN is divisible by P."


Open the brackets, p2[p271p]=p29p will always be divisible by 29, as it is prime.


Question 88.


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 89.


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


Question 90.


Find the remainder when 9400+9401+9402.......9410 is divided by 6?


  1.     0
  2.     1
  3.     3
  4.     2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 3
:
C

Any power of 9 when divided by 6, gives a remainder 3. hence answer =11×36((As there are 11 terms)= 336 = Remainder =3
