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:

Equal quantities of three mixtures of milk and water are mixed in the ratio 1:2, 2:3 and 3:4. The ratio of water and milk in the mixture is ?

A) 193 : 122 B) 97 : 102
C) 115 : 201 D) 147 : 185
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 193 : 122

Explanation:

Given the three mixtures ratio as (1:2),(2:3),(3:4)

(1+2),(2+3),(3+4)

Total content = 3,5,7

 

Given equal quantities of the three mixtures are mixed, then LCM of 3, 5, 7 = 105

105/3 = 35 , 105/5 = 21 , 105/7 = 15

 

Now, the individual equal quantity ratios are (35x1, 35x2), (21x2, 21x3), (15x3, 15x4)

 i.e (35,70), (42,63), (45,60)

 

So overall mixture ratio of milk and water is

35+42+45 : 70+63+60

122:193

 

But in the question asked the ratio of water to milk = 193 : 122
