Q:

In a two-digit number, if it is known that its unit's digit exceeds its ten's digit by 2 and that the product of the given number and the sum of its digits is equal to 144, then the number is :

A) 12 B) 24
C) 36 D) 48
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 24

Explanation:

Let the ten's digit be x.

 

Then, unit's digit = x + 2.

 

Number = 10x + (x + 2) = 11x + 2

 

Sum of digits = x + (x + 2) = 2x + 2.

 

(11x + 2) (2x + 2) = 144

=> 22x^2+26x-140=0

 

=> (x - 2)(11x + 35) = 0

 

=> x = 2

 

Hence, Required Number = 11x + 2 = 24

Q:

What will be the total weight of 10 poles each of the same weight ?

I. One-fourth of the weight of a pole is 5 kilograms.

II. The total weight of three poles is 20 kilograms more than the total weight of two poles. 

A) If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question B) If the data in statement II alone are sufficient answer the question
C) If the data either in I or II alone are sufficient to answer the question; D) If the data even in both the statements together are not sufficient to answer the question
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) If the data either in I or II alone are sufficient to answer the question;

Explanation:

From I, we find that the weight of one pole is (5 x 4) = 20 kg ,and so the weight of 10 poles is 200 kg.

Thus, I alone is sufficient.

From II. we have : (weight of 3 poles — weight of 2 poles) -= 20 kg or weight of one pole - 20 kg.

So. weight of 10 poles 200 kg.

Thus. II alone is also sufficient
