P Is A Whole Number Which When Divided by 4 Gives 3 As Remainder
2 Correct
0
Show Answer
Explanation:
Let P = 4q + 3. Then 2P = 8q + 6 = 4(2q + 1 ) + 2.
2. A number is divided by 221, the remainder is 64. If the number be divided by 13 then
remainder will be
1 Correct
4
Show Answer
Explanation:
Let the given number when divided by 119
gives x as quotient and 19 as remainder. Then
Given number = 119x + 19
= 17 x 7x + 17 + 2
= 17 (7x + 1) + 2
so, the required remainder is 2.
3. Which of the following number should be added to 11158 to make it exactly divisible by
77?
8
7 Correct
Show Answer
Explanation:
Ondividing 11158 by 77, the remainder is 70
Thus, Number to be added = (77 - 70)=7

5. A can do a certain work in the same time in which B and C together can do it. If A and B
together could do it in 10 days and C alone in 50 days, then B alone could do it in how many
days?
15 days
25 days Correct
20 days
30 days
Show Answer
Explanation:
(A + B)’s one day’s work = 1/10. --- (i)
C’s one day’s work = 1/50
(A + B + C)’s one day’s work = (1/10 + 1/50) = 6/50 = 3/25. ---- (ii).
Also, A’s one day’s work = (B + C)’s one day’s work.
From (i) and (ii), we get :2*(A’s one day’s work) = 3/25.
=> A’s one day’s work = 3/50
B’s one day’s work = (1/10 - 3/50)
= 2/50
Thus, B alone could complete the work in 25 days.
6. Pipe A and B can fill a tank in 8 hours, B and C can fill it in 12 hours. A, B and C together
can fill it in 6 days. A and C together will fill it in how many days?
15
24
20
8 Correct
Show Answer
Explanation:
Let the total units of work be 48.
Units of work completed by A and B in one day = 6.
Units of work completed by B and C in one day = 4
Units of work completed by A, B, and C in one day = 8.
From the above information we get the work completed by A and C in one day is 6 units.
Therefore, the number of days taken by A and C to complete the whole work = 48/6 = 8 days.
7. A is thrice as good as workman as B and therefore is able to finish a job in 60 days less
than B. Working together, they can do it in:
20 days
25 days
30 days
Show Answer
Explanation:
Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1 : 3.
The time difference is (3 - 1) 2 days while B take 3 days and A takes 1 day.
If difference of time is 2 days, B takes 3 days.
If difference of time is 60 days, B takes = 3/2 x 60 = 90 days.
So, A takes 30 days to do the work.
A’s 1 day’s work = 1/30
B’s 1 day’s work = 1/90
20 days
25 days
30 days
Show Answer
Explanation:
Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1 : 3.
The time difference is (3 - 1) 2 days while B take 3 days and A takes 1 day.
If difference of time is 2 days, B takes 3 days.
If difference of time is 60 days, B takes = 3/2 x 60 = 90 days.
So, A takes 30 days to do the work.
A’s 1 day’s work = 1/30
B’s 1 day’s work = 1/90
9. the number of days taken to complete the whole work = 12/9 = 4/3 days.
5 days
6 days
9 days
