C) 13320 D) 145874
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 147320

Explanation:

Sum of 4 digit numbers = (2+4+6+8) x P33 x (1111) = 20 x 6 x 1111 = 133320 


Sum of 3 digit numbers = (2+4+6+8) x P23 x (111) = 20 x 6 x 111 = 13320 


Sum of 2 digit numbers = (2+4+6+8) x P13 x (11) = 20 x 3 x 11 = 660 


Sum of 1 digit numbers = (2+4+6+8) x P03 x (1) = 20 x 1 x 1 = 20

Q:

In a note collection, there is one new Rs.2000 note for every three old Rs.500 notes. 10 more new Rs.2000 notes are added to the collection and the ratio of new Rs.2000 notes to old Rs.500 notes would be 1: 2. Based on the information, the total number of notes in the collection now becomes?

A) 60 B) 30
C) 70 D) 90
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 90

Explanation:

Let 'x' be the number of new Rs.2000 notes.

Given for one new 2000 note there are three old 500 notes.

i.e, 3x


Given 10 more new Rs.2000 notes are added to the collection
and the ratio of new Rs.2000 notes to old Rs.500 notes 


x+103x=12x=20

Therefore, number of new Rs.2000 notes =  x+10 = 30.

old Rs.500 notes = 3x = 60.

Thus, the total number of notes in the collection  = 30 + 60 = 90.

Q:

If x = √8 - √7, y = √6 - √5 and z = √10 - 3, which of the following is true  ?

A) x > y < z B) x < y < z
C) x > y > z D) z < x < y
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) z < x < y

Explanation:

x = √8 - √7 = 1/(√8 + √7) and y = √6 - √5 = 1/(√6 + √5) and z = √10 - 3 = 1/(√10 + 3)

As (√8 + √7) > (√6 + √5), (√8 - √7) < (√6 - √5)

As (√10 + 3) > (√8 + √7) > (√6 + √5)

z < x < y.

Laser printing is an electrostatic digital printing process. It produces high-quality text and graphics by repeatedly passing a laser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylinder called a "drum" to define a differentially charged image.

 

Compared to inkjet printers which use ink for printing laser printers are more expensive as they use toner which lasts for long.
