Q:

Find the lowest 4-digit number which when divided by 3, 4 or 5 leaves a remainder of 2 in each case ?

A) 1020 B) 1040
C) 1060 D) 1022
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 1022

Explanation:

Lowest 4-digit number is 1000.
LCM of 3, 4 and 5 is 60.
Dividing 1000 by 60, we get the remainder 40. Thus, the lowest 4-digit number that exactly divisible by 3, 4 and 5 is 1000 + (60 - 40) = 1020.
Now, add the remainder 2 that's required. Thus, the answer is 1022.

Q:

Divide Rs.118000 among three persons A, B and C such that the ratio of the shares of A and B is 3:4 and that of B:C is 5:6 ?

A) A = 48000 B = 40000 C = 30000 B) A = 30000 B = 40000 C = 48000
C) A = 30000 B = 48000 C = 40000 D) A = 40000 B = 48000 C = 30000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) A = 30000 B = 40000 C = 48000

Explanation:

Compound ratio of A:B:C
A:B = 3:4
B:C = 5:6
----------
A:B:C = 15:20:24

We can divide Rs.118000 in this ratio.

Share of A = 15/59 x 118000 = 30000

Share of B = 20/59 x 118000 = 40000

Share of C = 24/59 x 118000 = 48000
