There is one number which is formed by writing one digit 6 times (e.g., 111111, 444444 etc.). Such a number is
always divisible by
(1) 7

(2) 11

(3) 13

(4) 7, 11, 13

Since 111111 is divisible by each one of 7,11 and 13. so numbers like 666666 etc are also divisible by 7, 11 and 13
as 666666 = 6(111111).
Ans(4)

How many numbers between 11 and 111 are the multiples of both 2 and 5?
(1) 8

(2) 12

(3) 10

(4) 14

Totally 100 Numbers are there(111-11).Hence no.of 10 multiples will be 10.Ans(3)

Find the total number of primes factors in 217 631 75 1011 1110 32323.
(1) 126

(2) 162

(3) 150

(4) 152

217 631 75 1011 1110 32323

(2^17)x (2^31 x 3^31) x (7^5) x (2^11 x 5^11) x (11^10) x (19^23) x (17^23)

(2^59 )x (3^31) x (5^11) x (7^5) x (11^10) x 19 x 17
Total no.of prime Factors are (17+31+31+5+22+10+23+23)=162

Find the least number by which 22932 must be multiplied or divided so as to make it a perfect square.
(1) 13

(2) 11

(3) 8

(4) 9

22932= 2^2 x 3^2 x 7^2 x 13

So, the least number multiplied or divided should be 13, so it will become a perfect square no.
Ans(1)

5
If x +

= 2 then find the value of x2 +

(1) 2

(2) 1

(3) 3

(4) 4

6
When n is divided by 4, the remainder is 3. What is the remainder when 2n is divided by 4?
(1) 1

(2) 3

(3) 0

(4) 2

When n is divided by 4,
let the quotient = k & the remainder = 3
n = 4k t 3 => 2n = 8k + 6 = (8k r 4) + 2 = 4(2k + 1) + 2.
Thus, when 2n is divided by 4, the quotient is (2k + 1) and the remainder is 2.

7
By what least number should we multiply 8400, so that it becomes a perfect square?
(1) 3

(2) 7

(3) 84

(4) 21

=> 8400 = 22 22 55 3 7

8400, if multiplied by 3 7 = 21 will become a perfect square.

8
The largest natural number by which the product of three consecutive even natural numbers is always divisible, is
(1) 16

(2) 48

(3) 24

(4) 50

Let n, (n + 2), (n + 4) be 3 consecutive even natural numbers. The least value ol n is 2. For this value of n, we
have n(n + 2)(n + 4) = 2 4 6 = 48

The required number is 48.

9

The greatest prime number which exactly divides 826, is

(1) 59

(2) 413

(3) 131

(4) 87

413 is divisible by 7.
So, it is not prime. Clearly, 59 is a prime number and divides 826.

10
How many prime numbers are of the form 10n + 1, where n is a whole number such that 1 n 9 ?
(1) 1

(2) 2

(3) 5

(4) 3

Putting n = 1, 2, 3, ..,9
we find that the requisite prime numbers are 11, 31, 41, 61, 71.
They are 5 in number

11
The difference between the greatest number and the smallest number of 5 digits using 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 using all but
once, is
(1) 39276
(2) 39267
(3) 23976
(4) 32976

Required difference = (43210 10234) = 32976

12
A certain number of persons agree to pay as many rupees as the number of persons. The money received is
Rs.2582449. How many persons are there?
(1) 1503

(2) 1507

Number of persons Rupees = 2582449.

Here the number of persons = Rupees given
=> Number of persons = V2582449 = 1607.

What is the smallest number by which 504 should be multiplied, so that it becomes perfect square?
(1) 2

(2) 14

(3) 7

(4) 10

504 = 23 32 7. The smallest number to be multiplied to make it a perfect square = 2 7 = 14.

14
The sum of three numbers is 132. If the first number be twice the second and third number is one third of the first,
then the second number is
(1) 72

(2) 36

(3) 18

(4) 60

15
What should be multiplied with 152207 so that the product is 11111111?
(1) 73

(2) 63

(3) 53

(4) 83

Let 152207 X = 11111111

=> X =

=73

16
What least number must be added to 1056 to get a number exactly divisible by 23?
(1) 21

(2) 2

(3) 1

On dividing 1056 by 23, the remainder = 21.

The number to be added = (23 21) = 2.

Short-cut: 529 is the square of 23 and 1058 is its double and hence 2 is required.
