Q:

Every rational number is an integer.

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) FALSE

Explanation:

Any integer 'i' can be written as i = i/1, which is a rational number. Clearly, 7/2,-5/4, etc... are rational numbers but they are not integers.


Hence, from the above analysis, every integer is a rational number but a rational number need not be an integer.


 


Therefore the given statement that 'Every rational number is an integer' is FALSE.

Q:

A starts a business, after 6 months B also join him with Rs.4500 and after 2 months of B’s joining C also join them with Rs.4500. If A gets approx. Rs 4900 out of total annual profit of Rs. 10,000 then find the approximate value of initial investment of A.

A) Rs.4800 B) Rs.4200
C) Rs.3600 D) Rs.4400
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs.3600

Explanation:

Let initial investment of A = x
Ratio of profit A : B : C = 12 × x : 6×4500 :4×4500
A :B:C = x : 2250: 1500
Now ATQx/(x+2250+1500) = 4900/10000
solving this we get,x ≈ Rs 3600
