Question 1391.


What is the first non-zero integer from the right in 2960296013902908?


  1.     8
  2.     1
  3.     9
  4.     None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 9
:
C
We need not consider 29602960, as it will end in more number of zeroes.
Last non-zero digit of 13902908 = Unit digit of 1392908=1.

Answer is (.......00 - .......1) = 9.


Question 1392.


How many 5 digit numbers are divisible by 3 and contain the digit 6?


  1.     7499
  2.     8776
  3.     12503
  4.     None of these

Answer: Option D. -> None of these
:
D
Consider first the number of 5-digit numbers divisible by 3. The smallest is 10002=3334×3, the largest is 99999=33333×3, so there are 30000 such numbers.
Now consider the numbers that do not contain the digit 6. There are 8 choices for the 1st digit, 9 choices for each of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th digits.
If the total of the first 4 digits is a multiple of 3, then the last digit must be 0, 3 or 9.
If it gives a remainder 1 when divided by 3, then the last digit must be 2, 5 or 8.
If it gives a remainder 2 when divided by 3, then the last digit must be 1, 4 or 7.
So in all cases there are 3 choices for the last digit. Hence the total number is 8×93×3=17496.
So the total no. of 5 digit numbers which are divisible by 3 and contains a 6 is 12504.
Question 1393.


The area of a triangle whose vertices are (0,0), (12, 9) and (14, 6) is ___.


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> None of these
:

The simplest way to find this is to put a rectangle around the given triangle and then subtract off the areas of the right triangles that surround it.
(See Figure)
The Area Of A Triangle Whose Vertices Are (0,0), (12, 9) And...
The area of the entire rectangle is 126, but after subtracting the areas of the 3 right triangles, whose areas are 54, 3, and 42, we are left with an area of 27.


Question 1394.


A 3x3x3 cube has three square holes, each with a 1 by 1 cross-section running from the centre of each face to the centre of the opposite face. The total surface area (in square units) of the resulting solid is:


  1.     24
  2.     48
  3.     72
  4.     78 
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 72
:
C

The surface area of the solid consists of 6 faces of dimension 3 × 3 each with a 1 × 1 square hole.
The walls of the 6 holes can each be unfolded to form 1 × 4 rectangles.
Thus the surface area is 6(3×3-1×1)+6×4 = 72
