Test: Number System- 2 - Question 1

The sum of the digits of two-digit number is 5. If the digit is reversed, the number is decreased by 27. Find the numbers ?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 1

Let the digits be x and y respectively.
Therefore, x + y = 5 ----------- (1)
Original Number : 10x + y
Reversed Number : 10y + x
10x + y - (10y + x) = 27
10x + y - 10y - x = 27
9x - 9y = 27
9 (x - y) = 27
x - y = 3 ------------ (2)
Adding equation (1) and (2)
2x = 8
x = 4
Substituting value for x in equation (1), we get
4 + y = 5
y = 1
The numbers are 41 and 14.

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 2

The ratio between a two-digit number and the sum of the digits of that number is 3:1. If the digit in the unit’s place is 5 more than digit at ten’s place, what is the number?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 2

Let the two-digit number be 10a + b
(10a + b)/(a+b) = 3/1, 7a = 2b
And also given b = 5 + a
7a = 2(5+a)
7a =10 + 2a
5a = 10  
a = 2
b = 5 + a
b = 5 + 2
b = 7
so number 10a + b = 10x2 + 7 = 27
Solve both equations to get the number

What is the number in the unit place of the number (129)58?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 4

[(129)2]29 = (1)29 = 1 (92 always result in 1 on unit place)

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 5

A number when divided by 5 leaves a remainder 4. What is the remainder when the square of the same number is divided by 5?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 5

Le the number be 5a + 4
square of the number = 25a2 + 16 + 40a
so remainder = 1 (16 divided by 5 leaves a remainder 1)

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 7

(a +4)/b = 1/3 and a/(b+3) = 1/6 solve both the equations, u will get a = 5 and b = 27

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 8

When one-fourth of a number is added to 16, it becomes three-fourth of itself. Find the number?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 8

Let the number be x.

According to the given condition:

- (1/4)x + 16 = (3/4)x

Solve for x:

  • (1/4)x + 16 = (3/4)x
  • 16 = (3/4)x - (1/4)x
  • 16 = (2/4)x
  • 16 = (1/2)x
  • x = 32


Therefore, the number is 32.

Answer: B: 32

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 9

In the examination a candidate must get 3/8 marks to pass, out of total marks. Shyam appeared in the exam and got 300 marks and still failed by 36 marks. The maximum mark is

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 9

Let total marks = M
(3/8)*M = 300 + 36 = 336
M = 112*8 = 896

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 10

Two different numbers are divided by the same divisor and left remainder 11 and 21 respectively and when their sum was divided by the same divisor, remainder was 4. What is the divisor?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 10

Let us say that the two numbers are 'a' and 'b' and the divisor is 'd'

We are given that

Rem [a/d] = 11 and Rem [b/d] = 21

We are also given that the Remainder [(a + b)/d] = 4

=> Rem[(11 + 21)/d] = 4

=> Rem[32/d] = 4

=> 32 - 4 = 28 is divisible by 'd' or 'd' is a factor of 28

=> 'd' could be 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, or 28

We also know that 'd' is greater than 21 because 'b' when divided by 'd' leaves a remainder of 21.

=> The value of 'd' is 28

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 11

A number is multiplied by 561, and the result obtained is 32,582. But it was found that both 2 in the number are wrong, what should be the correct answer?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 11

561 = 3*11*17
So the number must be divided by 3, 11 and 17
Only B option is divided by all.

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 12

If the number 10*47* is divisible by both 5 and 11, then the missing digits are respectively

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 12

Check the options in the number 10x47y
all numbers will be divisible by 5 because in end it is 5 and 0
for number to be divisible by 11, (y+4+0) – (7+x+1) should be divisible by 11
from option A, y = 5, x = 1 gives (y+4+0) – (7+x+1) as 0 which is divisible by 11

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 13

The sum of digits of a two digit number is 6. The ratio of the original number to the number formed by interchanging its digits is 4 : 7. Find the number.

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 13

Let the number is 10x+y
So x+y = 6
And (10x+y)/(10y+x) = 4/7
Solve, 2x = y and from above we have x+y = 6
Solve both equations, x = 2, y = 4

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 14

When a number is multiplied by 13 and 13 is added to the product, the resultant is divisible by 5. Find the smallest product possible?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 14

13x + 13 which is divisible by 5, or 13(x+1) should be divisible by 5.
The smallest value of x = 4 to be put here to make it divisible by 5.
So the number is 13(4+1)

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 15

Find the least number which must be subtracted from 103876 to make the obtained number divisible by 16.

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 15
- Divide 103876 by 16.
- The quotient is 6492 with a remainder of 4.
- To make 103876 divisible by 16, subtract the remainder.
- Therefore, subtract 4 from 103876.
- The resulting number, 103872, is divisible by 16.

Answer: b) 4
Test: Number System- 2 - Question 16

The difference between two numbers is 2577. The quotient and remainder are respectively 26 and 2 when the larger number is divided by the smaller one. What is the largest number?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 16

Smaller no = x, then larger = x+2577
Now x+2577 = 26x + 2
Solve, x = 103
So larger no is = 103+2577

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 17

The difference between the digits of a two digit number is 5. Also the original number is 18 more than two times the number obtained by reversing its digits. Find the original number.

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 17

Let number is 10x+y
Then x-y = 5 or y-x = 5
Now given that, 10x+y = 2(10y+x) + 18 Solve, 8x – 19y = 18
Now solve: 8x – 19y = 18 and x-y = 5. In this y = 2, x = 7
And also solve; 8x – 19y = 18 and y-x = 5. In this y come to be negative which is not possible so discard this
So number is 10*7 + 2

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 18

A number when divided by 462 gives the remainder as 25. When same number is divided by 14, the remainder will be?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 18

Let the number be N.

From the given information:

  • When N is divided by 462, the remainder is 25. This means:

    N = 462k + 25

    where k is an integer.

Now, we need to find the remainder when N is divided by 14. Substituting N = 462k + 25:

  • First, divide 462 by 14:

    462 ÷ 14 = 33 (remainder 0)

    So, 462k is divisible by 14, leaving us with:

    N = 462k + 25

Now, divide 25 by 14:

  • 25 ÷ 14 = 1 (remainder 11).

Therefore, the remainder when N is divided by 14 is 11.

Answer: The remainder is 11.

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 19

Kavya attends 40 questions and get 96 marks. If 3 marks are given for each correct answer and 1 mark is deducted for each wrong answer, find the number of question she attended correct?

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 19

Let she attend x correct answers out of 40, then incorrect = 40-x
So x*3 – (40-x)*1 = 96
Solve, x = 34

Test: Number System- 2 - Question 20

When 1 is added to the numerator of a fraction it becomes 1/4 and 1 is subtracted from the denominator of that fraction it becomes 1/5. Find the fraction.

Detailed Solution for Test: Number System- 2 - Question 20

Let fraction = x/y
Then (x+1)/y = 1/4
And x/(y-1) = 1/5
Solve both equations, x = 3, y = 16
