Q:

Every rational number is an integer.

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) FALSE

Explanation:

Any integer 'i' can be written as i = i/1, which is a rational number. Clearly, 7/2,-5/4, etc... are rational numbers but they are not integers.

Q:

There is a square field of area ‘X’ square meters. A cylindrical ditch of radius 7 meters and depth 2 meters is dug, and the earth is taken out and spread over the remaining part of the square field, the height of square field which goes up by 0.77 meters. What is the value of ‘X’ ? 

A) 548 sq. m B) 524 sq. m
C) 518 sq. m D) 554 sq. m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 554 sq. m

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical ditch = πrxrh = 22/7 ×7×7×2 = 308 sq.m

Area of remaining field = (X −πrxr) sq.m

= (X − 154)

ATQ –

(X – 154) ×0.77 = 308

(X – 154) = 400

X= 554 sq.m
