HP Patwari Mock Test - 2 - HP Patwari MCQ

If ²ⁿC₃ : ⁿC₂ = 12 : 1 ...(1)

Using the formula,

Putting equation 2 and 3 in equation 1,

⇒ 2n - 1 = 9 ⇒ 2n = 10 ⇒ n = 5.

Let the three consecutive multiples of 3 are 3x, (3x + 3) and (3x + 6).

⇒ 3x + 3x + 3 + 3x + 6 = 99 ⇒ 9x + 9 = 99 ⇒ 9x = 90 ⇒ x = 10

Thus, 3x = 3 x 10 = 30, 3x + 3 = 33, 3x + 6 = 36 

Thus, the multiples are 30, 33, 36.

Given:

A train 300 m long is running with a speed of 54 km/hr.

Speed = 54 km/hr

To convert into m/sec multiply with 5/18

⇒ Speed = 54 × (5/18)

⇒ Speed = 15 m/sec

⇒ Time = Distance/Speed

⇒ Time = 300/15 

⇒ Time = 20 sec

Since 31x5 is a multiple of 9,

⇒ (3 + 1 + x + 5) must be a multiple of 9.

⇒ (9 + x) must be a multiple of 9.

So, according to the options, x could be 9.

∵ 9 + 9 = 18, which is a multiple of 9.

The sum of given numbers ⇒ 2(1/4) + 5(2/3) + 4(5/6) + 8(2/3)

 = 9/4 + 17/3 + 29/6 + 26/3 = 257/12

∴ The average of given four numbers = (257/12) ÷ 4 = 257/48 = 5(17/48)

20% discount means 20% of 500 = Rs. 100 is first discount

Now price is 500 - 100 = Rs. 400 

10% discount means 10% of 400 = Rs. 40 

Now, Selling Price = 400 - 40 = Rs. 360

Given,

HCF = 12, LCM = 5040, First number = 144

We know,

Product of 2 numbers = product of their HCF and LCM

Then,

144 × x = 12 × 5040

x = = 420
