#15. The average weight of A, B and C is 45 kg. If the average weight of A and B be 40 kg and that of B and C be 43 kg, then the weight (in kg) of B is :

 

#16. 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

#17. The LCM of two numbers is 1920 and their HCF is 16. If one of the number is 128, find the other number.

#18. 4 boys and 3 girls spent Rs.120 on the average, of which the boys spent Rs.150 on the average. Then the average amount spent by the girls is:

#19. The least perfect square, which is divisible by each of 21, 36 and 66 is

#20. A, B and C can do a piece of work in 24, 30 and 40 days respectively. They began the work together but C left 4 days before completion of the work. In how many days was the work done ?

#21. Simplify: $ \frac{0.41\times0.41\times0.41+0.69\times0.69\times0.69}{0.41\times0.41-0.41\times 0.69+0.69+0.69} $

#22. The greatest number, which when divide 989 and 1327 leave remainders 5 and 7 respectively, is :

The largest number which when divide the numbers a, b and c give remainders as p, q, r respectively is given by H.C.F. of (a – p), (b – q) and (c – r)
Required number
= HCF of (989 – 5) and (1327 – 7)
= HCF of 984 and 1320 = 24
HCF = 24
