  • Question 1
    4 / -1

    If x lies between (-7) and 13, then find the greatest value of (13 - x)7 (x + 7)3

    Solution

    Here x lies between −7 and 13, then both (13 − x) and (x + 7) are positive.

    Now (13 − x)7 (x + 7)3 is the greatest when

    equal to (13−x)/7 and 3 factors each equal to (x+7)/3

    The product of factors has maximum value, when sum of the factors is constant and each factor is equal

    Here, sum of the factors

  • Question 2
    4 / -1

    From four positive real numbers a, b, c and d, 4 distinct combinations of three numbers are chosen such that their sums are S1, S2, S3 and S4. If a × b × c × d = 5, then find the minimum value of the product of S1 × S2 × S3 × S4.

    Solution

  • Question 3
    4 / -1

    How many digits cannot be the unit’s digit of the product of three 3-digit numbers whose sum is 989?

    Solution

    We can have the following possible combinations of the unit's digit of the three 3 -digit numbers whose sum is 9 or 19

    1. (0, 0 and 9) : Last digit of the product is 0

    2. (1, 9 and 9) : Last digit of the product is 1

    3. (1, 2 and 6) : Last digit of the product is 2

    4. (2, 3 and 4) : Last digit of the product is 4

    5. (1, 3 and 5) : Last digit of the product is 5

    6. (1, 4 and 4) : Last digit of the product is 6.

    7. (1, 1 and 7) : Last digit of the product is 7.

    8. (3, 7 and 9) : Last digit of the product is 9..

    In total there are 8 possible digits which can be the last digit of the product of three 3 -digit numbers.

    So there are only two digits (3 and 8), which are not possible.

  • Question 4
    4 / -1

    The third proportional of 27 and 36 is:

    Solution

    Let the third proportion be x.

    So, 27 : 36 ∷ 36 : x

    ∴ 27 × x = 36 × 36

    ⇒ x = 48

    Hence, the correct option is (A).

  • Question 5
    4 / -1

    Find the sum of the digits at the ten's and unit’s place of 8081111 + 8061111

    Solution

    To find the digits at the ten's and the unit's place we need to find the remainder when the number is divided by 100.

    When 8081111 is divided by 100.

    8081111 = (800 + 8)1111 since 800 is an integral

    multiple of 100 the remainder is when 81111 is divided by 100.

    Remainder = 25 − 2 = 23

    Actual remainder = 23 × 4 = 92

    When 8061111 is divided by 100.

    8061111 = (800 + 6)1111. since 800 is an integral multiple of 100 the remaincler is when 61111 is divided by 100

    When 216 is divided by 100, remainder = 16 So, when 216.4252 is divided by 100 , remainder will be when 16 × 16 = 256 is divided by 100, i.e. 56

    Therefore the net remainder when (92+56) is divided by 100, i.e. 48

    Sum of the digits at the ten's and the unit's place

    = 4 +8 = 12

  • Question 6
    4 / -1

    If | |x - 2| - 1| < 6 and | |y - 1| - 2| < 9, where x and y are integers, then which of the following is not a possible value of (x - 2y)?

    Solution

    ||x − 2| − 1| < 6 ⇒ − 6 < |x − 2| − 1 < 6

    ⇒ |x − 2| <7

    ⇒ −7

    ∴ -5 since x is an integer, x can only assume integral values from -4 to 8.

    Now, |y − 1| −2| < 9

    ⇒ −7 < |y−1 | < 11

    ⇒ |y − 1| < 11

    ⇒ −11 ∴ -10 since y is an integer, y can only assume integral values from -9 to 11.

    Hence, −26 ≤ (x − 2y) ≤ 26

  • Question 7
    4 / -1

    Which of the following options is correct about improper fraction?

    Solution

    In an improper fraction, the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator and denominator should not be equal to zero.

    e.g. 61/5, 6/6, 9/4, 66/21 etc.

    Hence the correct option is C.

  • Question 8
    4 / -1

    Directions For Questions

    153 persons bought three different kinds of cellular phones namely Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola. The number of people who bought both Nokia and Sony Ericsson is 30. The number of people who bought both Nokia and Motorola and the number of people who bought both Sony Ericsson and Motorola is 20 and 25 respectively. The ratio of the difference between the people who bought only Nokia and only Sony Ericsson to the difference between the number of people who bought only Nokia and only Motorola is 2:3. For every one person who bought only Sony Ericsson, there are two persons who bought only Nokia. Among the persons who bought only one kind of mobile phone, the number of persons buying Nokia was the highest.

    ...view full instructions

    Find the maximum possible number of persons who bought Nokia.

    Solution

    In the following venn diagram N, S and M stands for Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola respectively.

    {{21.JPG]]

    Given that (a − c) : (a − b) = 2 : 3 and a : c = 2 : 1. Let us assume that a = 4K, b = K and c = 2K where K is a constant

    Now, 4K + 50 − x + 2K + 25 − x + K = 153

    Or

    K=78+2x

    The fallowing are the possible values of K and x that satisfy the above equation: (K = 12, x = 3) ; (K = 14, x = 10) and (K = 16 and x = 17)

    Minimum possible number of persons who bought Nokia a + (30 - x) + x + ( 20 - x) = 50 + 4K - x = 50 + (4 x 16) - 17 = 97.

  • Question 9
    4 / -1

    In a circle, O is the centre and ∠ COD is right angle. AC = BD and CD is the tangent at P. Which of the following are true, if the radius of the circle is 1m?

    Solution

    AO = BO(radius) and CA = BD(given)

    Adding the above equation

    AO + AC = BO + BD

    OC = OD

    ∠ODC = ∠OCD

    ∠COD = 90

    Therefore

    ∠ODC = ∠OCD = 45

    Join OP.

    OP is perpendicular to CD. (Line joining center to tangent at point of contact)

    Tan ∠ODP = OP/PD

    tan⁡45∘ = 100/PD

    1 = 100/PD

    ⇒ PD = 100cm

    sin⁡ ∠ODP = OP/PD

    sin⁡45 = 100/OD

    OD = 100/0.7071

    ⇒ OD = 141.42cm

    BD = OD + OB

    ⇒ BD = 141.42 − 100

    ⇒ BD = 41.42cm

    ∴ AC + CP = 100 + 41.42 = 141.42cm

    Hence the correct option is C.

  • Question 10
    4 / -1

    Tangents PA and PB are drawn from an external point P to two concentric circles with centre O and radii 8 cm and 5 cm respectively, as shown in the figure. If AP = 15 cm then find the length of BP.

    Solution

    We have

    OA ⊥ AP and OB ⊥ BP [∴ the tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact] Join OP.
