Q:

If 78K928L is divisible by 6, then which of the following can Q and R take ?

 A) K=2 & L=3 B) K=1 & L=4 C) K=1 & L=2 D) K=3 & L=3

Explanation:

As per divisibility rule a number is divisible by 6 means it should be divisible by 2 and 3

case 1 : the divisibility rule for 2 is the number should be end with even number
in this case R =2 & R=4

case 2 : The divisibility rule for 3 is the sum of numbers should be divisible by 3
so if we take option (2) Q=1 & R=4 the sum is 39
if we take option (3) Q=1 & R=2 the sum is 37

So Option (2) is correct 39 is divided by 3

Q:

A secret can be told to only 3 persons in 3 minutes. Each person in turn tells 3 other persons in the next 3 minutes and the processes continues accordingly. In 30 minutes how many persons can be told this secret in this way ?

 A) 88572 B) 77854 C) 99584 D) 55654

Explanation:

Given a secret is told to 3 persons in 3 minutes.
And if the process continues with each person saying 3 other persons,
In 30 minutes => the rocess for 10 times because each person time is 3 minutes.
Required number of persons = $\inline \fn_jvn \small 3+3^{2}+3^{3}+3^{4}+.....+3^{9}+3^{10}$

Now it forms a geometric progression,

Sum to n terms is S= $\inline&space;\fn_jvn&space;\small&space;\frac{a(r^{n}-1)}{r-1}$

Here a = 3, r = 3

S = $\inline \fn_jvn \small \frac{3(3^{10}-1)}{3-1}$
=> 59048 x 3 /2

= 88572.
