A - 0

B - 1

C - 10

D - 1000

Answer : C

Explanation

= 10009⁄1026
= (103)9⁄1026
= 1027⁄1026
= 1027 - 26
= 10

Q 2 - Which of the numbers is exactly divisible by 3?

A - 415591

B - 6472

C - 3364

D - 413976

Answer : D

Explanation

Divisibility by 3: if sum of the digits is divisible by 3 then original number is divisible by 3. 413976, sum of digits is 30 thus the number is divisible by 3.

Q 3 - On dividing a number by 5, we get remainder as 3. What will be the remainder when the square of this number is divided by 5?

A - 3

B - 0

C - 1

D - 4

Answer : D

Explanation

Let number be p
Dividing p by 5, we get k as quotient and remainder as 3
p = 5k + 3 ->
p2 = (5k + 3)2 p = (25k2 + 30k + 9)
p = 5 (5k2 + 6k + 1) + 4
Therefore, we get 4 as remainder on dividing p2 by 5.

Q 4 - It is being given that (232) + 1) is completely divisible by a whole number. Which of the following numbers is completely divisible by this number?

A - 216 - 1

B - 216 + 1

C - 296 + 1

D - none of these

Answer : C

Explanation

Let 232 = p
-> (232 + 1) = p + 1
Let (p + 1) be completely divisible by natural number Z. Then->
(296 + 1) = [(232)3 + 1]
As (p3 + 1) = (p + 1)(p2 - p + 1), which is completely divisible by Z, since (p + 1) is completely divisible by Z.

Q 5 - 6 + 15 + 24 + 33 + ... + 123 = ?

A - 903

B - 603

C - 752

D - 690

Answer : A

Explanation

a = 6, d = 9, l = 123
Let number of terms be n
123 = a + (n - 1)d
123 = 6 + (n - 1)9
123 = 9n - 9
n = 14
Sn = n⁄2 (a + l)
= 14⁄2 (6 + 123)
= 7 x 129
= 903

Q 6 - What is the unit digit in in 795 - 358 ?

A - 0

B - 4

C - 6

D - 7

Answer : B

Explanation

  795 = (74)23 x 73 So Unit digit in 795 = Unit digit in 1 x 343 = 3  358 = (34)14 x 32 So Unit digit in 358 = Unit digit in 1 x 9 = 9  So Unit digit in 795 - 358 = Unit digit in 13 - 9 = 4.

Q 7 - 5358 x 51 = y. What is y?

A - 273268

B - 273258

C - 273248

D - 273368

Answer : B

Explanation

  y =5358 x 51  =5358 x (50 + 1)  =5358 x 50 + 5358  =267900 + 5358  =273258  

Q 8 - 1008 x 992 = y. What is y?

A - 900936

B - 999816

C - 969836

D - 999836

Answer : A

Explanation

  y = 1008 x 992     = (1000 + 8) x (1000 - 8)  Using formulae (a+b)(a-b) = a2 - b2  ∴ y =  (1000)2 - (8)2  = 1000000 - 64  = 999936  

Q 9 - Which of the following will always divide difference between squares of two consecutive even numbers completely?

A - 3

B - 4

C - 6

D - 7

Answer : B

Explanation

  let a = 2n , b = 2n + 2  => (b)2  - (a)2 = (2n + 2))2 - (2n)2  = 4[(n + 1)2 - (n)2]  = 4(2n + 1)  Which is always divisible by 4.  

Q 10 - (6n2 + 6n) is always divisible by?

A - 6 only

B - 6 and 12 both

C - 18 only

D - 24 only

Answer : B

Explanation

  6n2 + 6n = 6(n)(n+1)  As n(n+1) is always even so number is divisible by 12 as well.
