(a) 1
(b) 2
(c) 6
(d) 0
Ans: (c)
Take the alternating sum of the digits in the number, read from left to right. If that is divisible by 11, then the original number.
7 – 2 + 5 – 4 + * – 9 + 8 = (5 + *)
For the given number 7254 * 98 to be divisible by 11,
(5 + *) must also be divisible by 11
So, 5 + * = 11
Therefore * = 11 – 5
= 6

Q33: The greatest number which always divides the product of the predecessor and successor of an odd natural number other than 1, is
(a) 6
(b) 4
(c) 16
(d) 8
Ans: (b)
Let us assume an odd natural number be 5.

Q161: A person had Rs 1000000 with him. He purchased a colour T.V. for Rs 16580, a motor cycle for Rs 45890 and a flat for Rs 870000. How much money was left with him?
View AnswerTotal amount a person had = ₹ 1000000
The amount he spent on a colour T.V. = ₹ 16580
The amount he spent on a motorcycle = ₹ 45890
The amount he spent on a flat = ₹ 870000
∴ Total amount he spent = ₹ (16580 + 45890 + 870000) = ₹ 932470
Thus, the amount left with him = ₹ 1000000 – ₹ 932470 = ₹ 67530

The amount he gave to Jyoti = ₹ 87500
The amount he gave to Javed = ₹ 126380
The amount he gave to John = ₹ 350009
Total amount given by Chinmay = ₹ (87500 + 126380 + 350000) = ₹ 563880

Q184: A vessel has 13 litres 200 mL of fruit juice. In how many glasses each of capacity 60 mL can it be filled?
View AnswerQuantity of fruit juice in a vessel = 13 L 200 mL = (13 × 1000 + 200) mL = 13200 mL
Capacity of one glass = 60 mL
∴ The required number of glasses = 13200 ÷ 60 = 220
Therefore, 220 glasses can be filled by fruit juice.
Q185: Determine the sum of the four numbers as given below:
(a) successor of 32
(b) predecessor of 49
(c) predecessor of the predecessor of 56
(d) successor of the successor of 67
Since, successor of 32 is 33, predecessor of 49 is 48, predecessor of the predecessor of 56 is 54 and successor of the successor of 67 is 69.
∴ The required sum = 33 + 48 + 54 + 69 = 204
Q186: A loading tempo can carry 482 boxes of biscuits weighing 15kg each, whereas a van can carry 518 boxes each of the same weight. Find the total weight that can be carried by both the vehicles.
View AnswerTotal weight can be carried by a tempo = (482 × 15) kg = 7230 kg and the total weight can be carried by a van = (518 × 15) kg = 7770 kg Thus, the total weight that can be carried by both the vehicles = (7230 + 7770) kg = 15000 kg
Q187: In the marriage of her daughter, Leela spent Rs 216766 on food and decoration,Rs 122322 on jewellery, Rs 88234 on furniture and Rs 26780 on kitchen items. Find the total amount spent by her on the above items.
View AnswerAmount spent by Leela on food and decoration = ₹ 216766
Amount spent by her on jewellery = ₹ 122322
Amount spent by her on furniture = ₹ 88234
Amount spent by her on kitchen items = ₹ 26780
∴ Total amount spent by her = ₹ (216766 + 122322 + 88234 + 26780)
= ₹ 454102
Q188: A box contains 5 strips having 12 capsules of 500mg medicine in each capsule. Find the total weight in grams of medicine in 32 such boxes.
View AnswerQuantity of medicine in one capsule = 500 mg
∴ Quantity of medicine in 12 capsules or 1 strip = (500 × 12) mg = 6000 mg = 6 g
Quantity of medicine in 5 strips or 1 box = (6 × 5) g = 30 g
Quantity of medicine in 32 boxes = (30 × 32)g = 960 g

Q190: A merchant has 120 litres of oil of one kind, 180 litres of another kind and 240 litres of a third kind. He wants to sell the oil by filling the three kinds of oil in tins of equal capacity. What should be the greatest capacity of such a tin?
View AnswerA merchant has 3 kinds of oil with different quantities like 120 litres, 180 litres and 240 litres.
Since, he wants to sell the oil by filling the three kinds of oil in tins of equal capacity, so the greatest capacity of such a tin is the HCF of 120,180 and 240.
Now 120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
180 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
240 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 4
∴ The required greatest capacity of a tin = (2 × 2 × 3 × 5) litres = 60 litres
Q191: Find a 4-digit odd number using each of the digits 1, 2, 4 and 5 only once such that when the first and the last digits are interchanged, it is divisible by 4.
View AnswerBy using the digits 1, 2, 4 and 5 only once, we get a 4 digit odd number 4521.
When we interchanged its first and last digits we get a new number, i.e., 1524 which is divisible by 4.
Thus, the required number is 4521.
Q192: Using each of the digits 1, 2, 3 and 4 only once, determine the smallest 4-digit number divisible by 4.

Q193: Fatima wants to mail three parcels to three village schools. She finds that the postal charges are Rs 20, Rs 28 and Rs 36, respectively. If she wants to buy stamps only of one denomination, what is the greatest denomination of stamps she must buy to mail the three parcels?
View AnswerThe postal charges to mail three parcels are ₹ 20, ₹ 28 and ₹ 36 respectively.
Also, Fatima wants to buy stamps only of one denomination.
So, to find the greatest denomination of stamps, we find the HCF of 20, 28 and 36.
Now 20 = 2 × 2 ×5
28 = 2 × 2 × 7
36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
∴ The HCF of 20, 28 and 36 is 2 × 2 = 4
So, ₹ 4 is the greatest denomination of stamps, she must buy to mail the three parcels.
Q194: Three brands A, B and C of biscuits are available in packets of 12, 15 and 21 biscuits respectively. If a shopkeepeer wants to buy an equal number of biscuits, of each brand, what is the minimum number of packets of each brand, he should buy?
View AnswerA shopkeeper has three brands A, B and C of biscuits are available in packets of 12, 15 and 21 biscuits respectively.
Also, a shopkeeper wants to buy equal number of biscuits of each brand for that we need to find the LCM of 12, 15 and 21.
∴ The LCM of 12,15 and 21 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 = 420 Thus, the required number of packets of 420.
brand A = 420/12 = 35,
brand B = 420/15 = 28 and
brand C = 420/21 = 20
Q195: The floor of a room is 8m 96cm long and 6m 72cm broad. Find the minimum number of square tiles of the same size needed to cover the entire floor.
View AnswerLength of floor of a room = 8 m 96 cm = 896 cm
Breadth of floor of the room = 6 m 72 cm = 672 cm
To find the minimum number of square tiles of same size needed to cover the entire floor, we find the LCM of 896 cm and 672 cm.
∴ LCM of 672 and 896 is 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 = 2688
∴ Number of square tiles =
= 4 x 3 = 12
Q196: In a school library, there are 780 books of English and 364 books of Science. Ms. Yakang, the librarian of the school wants to store these books in shelves such that each shelf should have the same number of books of each subject. What should be the minimum number of books in each shelf?
View AnswerNumber of books of English = 780
Number of books of Science = 364
780 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 13
364 = 2 × 2 × 7 × 13
∴ The HCF of 780 and 364 = 2 × 2 × 13 = 52
Thus, the minimum number of books in each shelf = 52
Q197: In a colony of 100 blocks of flats numbering 1 to 100, a school van stops at every sixth block while a school bus stops at every tenth block. On which stops will both of them stop if they start from the entrance of the colony?
View AnswerThere are 100 blocks in a colony numbering 1 to 100.
A school van stops at every sixth block and a school bus stops at every tenth block.
We have to find the common stops at which they both stop if they start from a same entrance.
∴ We need to find the LCM of 6 and 10
The LCM of 6 and 10 is 2 × 3 × 5 = 30. Firstly both will stop at 30th block, then aL 60th block and lastly at 90th block.
