Solved Problems Of Numbers With Short-cut Tricks

Numbers 

Q. 1  If 60% of  3/5 of a number is 36, then the number is:

Answer:   Let the number be x
               Then  60% of 3/5 of x = 36,
                60/100 *3/5*x = 36,
                 x = 36 *25/9 =100
  Required number is 100.

Q. 2  The difference between the local value and the face value of 7 in the numeral 32675149 is

Answer:

Local value of 7 - face value of 7 = 70000 - 7 = 69993.

Q. 3   The unit digit in the product (784*618*917*463) is

Answer :The unit digit in the given product = unit digit in (4 *8*7*3  =672)=last digit is unit digit =2.

Q.4  How many prime numbers are less than 50?

Answer:
prime numbers are less than 50 are: 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47.
Their Number is 15.

Q. 5 If the number 91876*2 is completely divisible by 8, then the smallest whole number in place of * will be:

Answer:
The number 6x2 must be divisible by 8.
If x=3 then 632 is divisible by 8.
Hence,* = 3

Q. 6 On dividing a number by 357, we get 39 as remainder. On dividing the same number by 17,what will the remainder?

Answer:
Let x be the number and y be the quotient Then,
x = 357 * y + 39
    = (17*21*y) +(17*2)+5
    = 17 * (21 y +2)+5
Required Remainder =5.

Q. 7 In a division sum, the remainder is 0.  A student mistook the divisor by 12 instead of 21 and obtained 35 as quotient. What is the correct quotient?

 Answer:
  Number = 12 * 35 =420
 Correct quotient = 420/21 =20.

Q. 8  How many natural numbers are there between 23 and 100 which are exactly divisible by 6.

Answer:
Required numbers are 24,30,36,42,...,96
Where,  a= 24,  d = 6,tn =96
We know that,
tn = a+ (n-1) d
96 = 24 +(n-1)6
 12    = (n-1)
n = 13.
Their are 13 natural numbers.

Q. 9 The sum of first five prime number is :

Answer:
Required sum = ( 2+3+5+7+11) = 28.

Q. 10 The least number which can be subtracted from 100 so that it is completely divisible by 7:

Answer:
When 100 is divided by 7 then remainder is 2
Hence, The least number is 2.
Consider the remainder for subtraction.
