Q:

How many integers, greater than 999 but not greater than 4000, can be formed with the digits 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4, if repetition of digits is allowed?

A) 376 B) 375
C) 500 D) 673
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 376

Explanation:

The smallest number in the series is 1000, a 4-digit number.

 

The largest number in the series is 4000, the only 4-digit number to start with 4. 

 

The left most digit (thousands place) of each of the 4 digit numbers other than 4000 can take one of the 3 values 1 or 2 or 3.

 

The next 3 digits (hundreds, tens and units place) can take any of the 5 values 0 or 1 or 2 or 3 or 4.

 

Hence, there are 3 x 5 x 5 x 5 or 375 numbers from 1000 to 3999.

 

Including 4000, there will be 376 such numbers.

Find the odd man out of the following number series?

222, 271, 308, 332, 348, 357

A) 271 B) 308
C) 332 D) 348
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 308

Here the given series 222, 271, 308, 332, 348, 357 follows a pattern that

222

222 + 49  271

271 + 36 = 307 (NOT 308)

307 + 25 = 332

332 + 16 = 348

348 + 9 = 357

 

Hence, the odd man in the fiven number series is 308.

Q:

The length of a rectangular hall is 5m more than its breadth. The area of the hall is 750 sq.m. The length of the hall is

A) 20 B) 25
C) 30 D) 35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 30

Explanation:

Let breadth = x m

 

Then, length = (x+5)m

 

Area of a rectangle = Length x Breadth

 

x(x+5) = 750 

 

x² + 5x - 750= 0

 

(x+30)(x-25)= 0

 

x = 25 or x = -30

 

Hence, breadth x = 25m

 

=> Length = x + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30m.
