#1. The cost price of 100 books is equal to the selling price of 60 books. The gain percentage/loss percentage is :
#2. Find the least multiple of 23, which when divided by 18, 21 and 24 leaves the remainder 7, 10 and 13 respectively.
LCM of 18, 21 and 24
LCM = 2 × 3 × 3 × 7 × 4 = 504
Now compare the divisors with their respective remainders. We observe that in all the cases the remainder is just 11 less than their respective divisor. So the number can be given by 504 K – 11 Where K is a positive integer
Since 23 × 21 = 483
We can write 504 K – 11
= (483 21) K – 11, = 483 K (21K – 11)
483 K is multiple of 23, since 483 is divisible by 23.
So, for (504K – 11) to be multiple of 23, the remainder (21K – 11) must be divisible by 23.
Put the value of K = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6, ….. and so on successively.
We find that the minimum value of K for which (21K – 11) is divisible by 23. is 6, (21 × 6 – 11)
= 115 which is divisible by 23.
Therefore, the required least number
= 504 × 6 – 11 = 3013
#3. A certain number of men can do a work in 40 days. If there were 8 men more, it could be finished in 10 days less. How many men were there initially?
#4. Product of two co-prime numbers is 117. Then their LCM is
HCF of two-prime numbers = 1
Product of numbers = their
LCM = 117
117 = 13 × 9 where 13 & 9 are
co-prime. L.C.M (13,9) = 117
#5. The average of 15 numbers is 7. If the average of the first 8 numbers be 6.5 and the average of last 8 numbers be 9.5, then the middle number is :
