Q:

A number divided by 296 leaves the remainder 75. If the same number is divided by 37, what will be the remainder ?

A) 0 B) 1
C) 11 D) 8
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1

Explanation:

Let x be the number.

Given: x = 296n + 75 [where n is quotient] 

 --> (378n) +( 372 + 1) 

 -->37(8n + 2) + 1

Hence, when x divided by 37, 1 is the remainder.

Q:

How many remainders are possible if 16n is divided by 9 for any positive integral value of n ?

A) 1 B) 2
C) 3 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3

Explanation:

When 16nis divided by 9, we have

 1619, remainder = 7  

1629, remainder = 4 

1639, remainder = 1 

1649, remainder = 7 

1659, remainder = 4 

1669, remainder = 1 

So, we have cyclicity of 3 factors i.e 7,4,1. 

Hence only 3 remainders are possible.

Q:

If log 64 = 1.8061, then the value of log 16 will be (approx)?

A) 1.9048 B) 1.2040
C) 0.9840 D) 1.4521
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1.2040

Explanation:

Given that, log 64 = 1.8061

 i.e log43=1.8061 

--> 3 log 4 = 1.8061

--> log 4 = 0.6020

--> 2 log 4 = 1.2040

log42=1.2040

Therefore, log 16 = 1.2040

From a bunch of flowers having 16 red roses and 14 white roses, four flowers have to be selected. In how many different ways can they be selected such that at least one red rose is selected?

A) 27405 B) 26584
C) 26585 D) 27404
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 27404

Explanation:

Given total 16 Red roses and 14 White roses = 30 roses

 

Four flowers have to be selected from 30 i.e,  C430= 27405 Ways 

 

Now, atleast one Red rose is selected i.e, 27405(total) - 1(all four are white roses)  = 27404 ways.

Q:

Two bike riders ride in opposite directions around a circular track, starting at the same time from the same point. Biker A rides at a speed of 16 kmph and biker B rides at a speed of 14 kmph. If the track has a diameter of 40 km, after how much time (in hours) will the two bikers meet?

A) 6.52 B) 8.14
C) 4.18 D) 5.02
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4.18

Explanation:

Distance to be covered = πD = 40π km 

Relative speed of bikers = 16 + 14 = 30 kmph.

 

Now, time=distancespeed =  40π30 = 4.18 hrs.

Q:

If the cost price of a certain object doubles, then the loss gets tripled of what it was initially. The initial loss % was ?

A) 0 % B) 25 %
C) 75 % D) 50 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 50 %

Explanation:

Let the cost price be x and selling price be y.
Loss = x – y

 

When the cost price doubles, the loss gets tripled.
So it becomes like this, 2x – y = 3(x-y)

=> x = 2y

 

Loss % = (loss/ C.P) x 100 = [(2y-y)/2y] x 100= 50 %

Q:

In a palace, three different types of coins are there namely gold, silver and bronze. The number of gold, silver and bronze coins is 18000, 9600 and 3600 respectively. Find the minimum number of rooms required if in each room should give the same number of coins of the same type ?

A) 26 B) 24
C) 18 D) 12
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 26

Explanation:

Gold coins = 18000 , Silver coins = 9600 , Bronze coins = 3600

Find a number which exactly divide all these numbers 

That is HCF of 18000, 9600& 3600 

All the value has 00 at end so the factor will also have 00.

HCF for 180, 96 & 36.

 

Factors of  

180 = 3 x 3 x 5 x 2 x 2

96 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 

36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 

Common factors are 2x2×3=12

 Therefore, Actual HCF is 1200

 

  

Gold Coins 18000/1200 will be in 15 rooms

Silver Coins 9600/1200 will be in 8 rooms

Bronze Coins 3600/1200 will be in 3 rooms

Total rooms will be (15+8+3)  =  26 rooms.
