    Solution

    The option (C) is correct answer.

    Number that is formed by the last two digits is 12, which is divisible by 4

    Thus, 47,24,516 is divisible by 4.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Find first two common multiples of 12 and 16.

    Solution

    We know that multiples of 12 are

    12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120.

    Multiples of 16 are

    16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 144, 160 ….

    Hence, the first two common multiples of 12 and 16 are 48 and 96.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    A school bus picking up children in a colony of flats stops at every eigth  building. Another school bus starting from the same place stops at every twelth building. Which is the first bus stop at which both of them will stop?

    Solution

    We know that

    The first bus stop at which both of them will stop = LCM of 8 and 12

    So the required LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 24

    This, 24th building is the first bus stop at which both of them will stop.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    Write the largest 4-digit number and give its prime factorization.

    Solution

    9999 is the largest 4-digit number

    We know that

    Therefore, 9999 is the largest 4-digit number and can be expressed as 3 × 3 × 11 × 101.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Find the common factors of 18 and 24.

    Solution

    A 18 and 24

    We know that

    1 × 18 = 18

    3 × 6 = 18

    Factors of 18 are 1,2, 3, 6, 9 and 18 .

    We know that

    1 × 24 = 24

    2 × 12 = 24

    Factors of 24 are 1,2,3,4,6,8,12  and 24.

    Therefore, the common factors are 1,2,3 and 6.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Which of the following numbers is a perfect number?

    Solution

    Perfect number is a positive integer that is equal to the sum of its proper divisors

    The option (B) is correct answer.

    We know that the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3.

    So the sum of the factors of 6 = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    Two brands of biscuits are available in packs of 28 and 42 respectively. If I need to buy an equal number of biscuits of both kinds, what is the least number of packets of each kind I would need to buy?

    Solution

    Consider brand A contain 28 and brand B contain 42 number of biscuits

    We know that equal number of biscuits can be found by taking LCM of the number of chocolates

    So we get

    LCM of 28 and 42 is

    2

    28,   42

    2

    14,   21

    3

     7,    21

    7

     7,     7

     

    1 ,     1

       
     

    So the required LCM = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 = 84

    Hence, 84 number of biscuits of each kind should be purchased.

    No. of packets of brand A that should be purchased = 84 ÷ 28 = 3

    No. of packets of brand B that should be purchased = 84 ÷ 42 = 2

    Therefore, the least number of boxes of 3 of first kind and 2 of second kind should be purchased.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Electricity poles occur at equal distances of 180 m along a road and heaps of stones are put at equal distances of 240 m along the same road. The first heap is at the foot of the first pole. How far from it along the road is the next heap which lies at the foot of a pole?

    Solution

    Here , we find the LCM of 180 and 240

    So the required LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 x 5 = 720

    Therefore, the next heap which lies at the foot of a pole is 720 m far along the road.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    In the numbers 147*5  , replace * by the smallest number to make it divisible by 9. 

    Solution

    147*5

    Sum of digits = 1 + 4 + 7 + 5 = 17

    We know 18 is the multiple of 9 which is greater than 17.

    So the smallest required number = 18 – 17 = 1

    Hence, the smallest required number is 1.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Which of the following pairs are always co-prime? 

    (i) two prime numbers 

    (ii) one prime and one composite number 

    (iii) two composite numbers

    Solution

    (i) Two prime numbers are always co-prime to each other.

    For example: The numbers 7 and 11 are co-prime to each other.

    (ii) One prime and one composite number are not always co-prime.

    For example: The numbers 3 and 21 are not co-prime to each other.

    (iii) Two composite numbers are not always co-prime to each other.

    For example: 4 and 6 are not co-prime to each other.

  • Question 11
    1 / -0

    A rectangular corridor is 20 m 16 cm long and 15 m 60 cm broad. It is to be paved with square tiles of the same size. Find the least possible number of such tiles.

    Solution

    The dimensions of corridor are

    Length = 20 m 16 cm = 2016 cm

    Breadth = 15 m 60 cm = 1560 cm

    Least possible side of square tiles used = HCF of 2016 and 1560

    We know that the prime factorization of

    2016 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 7

    1560 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 13

    So HCF of 2016 and 1560 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 24

    Hence, the least possible size of square tiles used is 24 cm.

    We know that

    No. of square tiles which is used to pave the rectangular corridor = Area of courtyard/ Area of tile

    By substituting the values

    No. of square tiles which is used to pave the rectangular corridor = (2016 × 1560)/ (24)2 = 5460

    Therefore, the least possible number of such tiles is 5460.

  • Question 12
    1 / -0

    An event was organized for charity.1763 people attended the event. Out of them 425 people donated Rs. 1000 each , 338 people donated 500 each and the rest donated an amount of Rs. 100 each. How much money was collected for charity?

    Solution

    Given 

    425 people donated Rs. 1000 each = 425 x 1000. = 425000

    338 people donated Rs. 500 each = 338 x 500 = 169000.

    Number of people who donated Rs. 100 each = 1763 – (425 + 338) 

     1763 – 763 = 1000

    1000 people donated Rs. 100 each = 1000 x 100 = 100000

    Total money collected for charity = 425000 + 169000 + 100000

    = 694000

  • Question 13
    1 / -0

    What is the smallest number which when divided by 28, 42 and 56 gives a remainder of 3 each time?

    Solution

    We find out the LCM of 28, 42, 56

    So the required LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 = 168

    The smallest number which is exactly divisible by 28, 42 and 56 is 168

    In order to get remainder as 3

    Required smallest number = 168 + 3 = 171

    Therefore, the smallest number which when divided by 28, 42 and 56 gives a remainder of 3 each time is 171.

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    The LCM and HCF of two numbers are 260 and 8 respectively. If one of the numbers is 40, find the other number.

    Solution

    It is given that

    LCM of two numbers = 260

    HCF of two numbers = 8

    One of the number = 40

    We know that

    Product of two numbers = Product of HCF and LCM

    So we get

    40 × other number = 8 × 260

    On further calculation

    Other number = (8 × 260)/ 40 = 52

    Hence, the other number is 52

  • Question 15
    1 / -0

    Which of the following is a prime number?

    Solution

    The option (C) is correct answer.

    We know that 263 = 1 × 263

    263 has two factors, 1 and 263

    Therefore, it is a prime number

  • Question 16
    1 / -0

    Test the divisibility of 784645 the following numbers by 2: 

    Solution

    We know that a natural number is divisible by 2 if 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 are unit digits.

     784645

    The units digit in 784645 is 5

    Therefore, 784645 is not divisible by 2.

  • Question 17
    1 / -0

    If x and y are two co-primes, then their LCM is

    Solution

    The option (B) is correct answer.

    We know that LCM of two co-prime numbers is equal to their product.

    Hence, LCM of ‘x’ and ‘y’ will be xy.

  • Question 18
    1 / -0

    Determine prime factorization of 13915

    Solution

    We know that

    Hence, the prime factorization of 13915 is 5 × 11 × 11 × 23.

  • Question 19
    1 / -0

    7*4 is a three digit number with * as a missing digit. If the number is divisible by 6, the missing digit is.

    Solution

    The option (C) is correct answer.

    We know that the sum of the given digits = 7 + 4 = 11

    Multiple of 3 greater than 11 is 12.

    So we get 12 − 11 = 1

    Hence, the required digit is 1.

  • Question 20
    1 / -0

    Which of the following are co-primes?

    Solution

    The option (B) is correct answer.

    We know that 9 = 3 ×3 × 1 and 10 = 2 × 5 × 1

    Both 9 and 10 are composite numbers with common factor 1

    Hence, 9 and 10 are co-primes
