Q:

The difference between the squares of two consecutive odd integers is always divisible by ?

A) 8 B) 2
C) 6 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8

Explanation:

Let the two consecutive odd integers be (2x + 1) and (2x + 3)

Then,

(2x + 3)2 - (2x + 1)2

= (2x + 3 + 2x + 1) (2x + 3 - 2x - 1)

= (4x + 4)(2)
= 8 (x + 1), which is always divisible by 8

Q:

How many numbers with distinct digits are possible product of whose digits is 18?

A) 12 B) 8
C) 6 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8

Explanation:

Two digit numbers: The two digits can be 2 and 9: Two possibilities 29 and 92.

Three-digit numbers: The three digits can be 1, 2 and 9 => 3! Or 6 possibilities.

We cannot have three digits as (3, 3, 2) as the digits have to be distinct.

We cannot have numbers with 4 digits or more without repeating the digits.

So, there are totally 8 numbers.

Q:

A number when divided by 779 gives a remainder 47. By dividing the same number by 19, what would be the remainder?

Answer

Number = ( 779 x a) + 47, where "a" is the quotient


           = (19 x 41 x a) + (19 x 2) + 9


           = 19 x (41a + 2) + 9


           = 19 x (New quotient) + 9


\inline \fn_jvn \therefore  Required remainder = 9
