#6. A train travels 500 m in first minute. In the next 4 minutes, in each minute it travels 125 m more than that in the previous minute. The average speed per hour of the train during those 5 minutes will be :

#7. The least number to be subtracted from 36798 to get a number which is exactly divisible by 78 is

When 36798 is divided by 78, remainder = 60
The least number to be subtracted = 60

#8. The average weight of the first 11 persons among 12 persons is 95 kg. The weight of 12th person is 33 kg more than the average weight of all the 12 persons. The weight of the 12th person is :

#9. \sqrt[3]{(333)^3+(333)^3+(334)^3 -3\times333\times333\times334} is equal to

#10. A supply of juice lasts for 35 days. If its use is increased by 40%, then the number of days would the same amount of juice lasts is :

#12. A bag contains Rs. 90 coins in the denominations of 50 paise, 25 paise and 10 paise. If coins of 50 paise, 25 paise and 10 paise are in the ratio of 2 : 3 : 5, then the number of 25 paise coins in the bag is

#13. 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
