| 3) | 120 | 4) | 200 |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 40
Explanation :
Explanation :
Let the numbers be 3x, 4x and 5x.
Then, their L.C.M. = 60x.
So, 60x = 2400 or x = 40.
The numbers are (3 x 40), (4 x 40) and (5 x 40).
Hence, required H.C.F. = 40.

Answer : 48
Explanation :
Explanation :
Let the numbers be 3x and 4x. Then, their H.C.F. = x. So, x = 4.
So, the numbers 12 and 16.

| 1) | 37years | 2) | 30years |
| 3) | 47 years | 4) | 57 years. |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 47 years
Explanation :
Explanation :
Total age of 30 boys = 3016 = 480
After teacher's join, total age = 3117= 527
Teacher's age = 527- 480 = 47 years.
Shortcut Method :
(311) + 16 = 47 years.

Q614. | A number consists of 3 digits whose sum is 10. The middle digit is equal to the sum of the other two and the number will be increased by 99 if its digits are reversed. The number is: |
| 1) | 145 | 2) | 253 |
| 3) | 370 | 4) | 352 |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 253
Explanation : Let the middle digit be x.
Then, 2x = 10 or x = 5. So, the number is either 253 or 352.
Since the number increases on reversing the digits, so the hundred's digits is smaller than the unit's digit.
Hence, required number = 253.

Q615. | What is the sum of two consecutive even numbers, the difference of whose squares is 84 ? |
| 1) | 34 | 2) | 38 |
| 3) | 42 | 4) | 46 |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 42
Explanation : Let the numbers be x and x + 2.
Then, (x + 2)2 - x2 = 84
or 4x + 4 = 84 or 4x = 80
or x = 20. The required sum = x + (x + 2) = 2x + 2 = 42.
Explanation : Let the numbers be x and x + 2.
Then, (x + 2)2 - x2 = 84
or 4x + 4 = 84 or 4x = 80
or x = 20. The required sum = x + (x + 2) = 2x + 2 = 42.

Q616. | The product of two numbers is 9375 and the quotient, when the larger one is divided by the smaller, is 15. The sum of the numbers is: |
| 1) | 380 | 2) | 395 |
| 3) | 400 | 4) | 425 |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 400
Explanation : Let the numbers be x and y.
Then, xy = 9375 and x/y = 15.
X = 15y
So, y x 15y = 15y2 = 9375
or y2 = 625. y = 25.
x = 15y = (15 x 25) = 375.
Thus, Sum of the numbers = x + y = 375 + 25 = 400.

Q617. | The sum of the squares of three numbers is 138, while the sum of their products taken two at a time is 131. Their sum is: |
| 1) | 20 | 2) | 30 |
| 3) | 40 | 4) | 24 |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 20
Explanation : Let the numbers be x, y and z.
Then, x2 + y2 + z2 = 138 and (xy + yz + zx) = 131.
or (x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2(xy + yz + zx) = 138 + 2 x 131 = 400.
or (x + y + z) = 20.
Explanation : Let the numbers be x, y and z.
Then, x2 + y2 + z2 = 138 and (xy + yz + zx) = 131.
or (x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2(xy + yz + zx) = 138 + 2 x 131 = 400.
or (x + y + z) = 20.

Q618. | The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 15 and the difference between the digits is 3. What is the two-digit number ? |
| 1) | 69 | 2) | 78 |
| 3) | 96 | 4) | D.I |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : D.I
Explanation : Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y.
Then, x + y = 15 and x - y = 3 or y - x = 3.
Solving x + y = 15 and x - y = 3, we get: x = 9, y = 6.
Solving x + y = 15 and y - x = 3, we get: x = 6, y = 9.
So, the number is either 96 or 69.
Hence, the number cannot be determined.

Q619. | The difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the positions of its digits is 36. What is the difference between the two digits of that number? |
| 1) | 3 | 2) | 4 |
| 3) | 9 | 4) | D.I |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 4
Explanation : Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y.
Then, (10x + y) - (10y + x) = 36
or 9(x - y) = 36 or x - y = 4.
Explanation : Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y.
Then, (10x + y) - (10y + x) = 36
or 9(x - y) = 36 or x - y = 4.

Q620. | Find a positive number which when increased by 17 is equal to 60 times the reciprocal of the number. |
| 1) | 3 | 2) | 10 |
| 3) | 17 | 4) | 20 |
| 5) | None of these | ||
Answer : 3
Explanation : Let the number be x.
Then, x + 17 = 60/x or x2 + 17x - 60 = 0
or (x + 20) (x - 3) = 0 or x = 3.
Explanation : Let the number be x.
Then, x + 17 = 60/x or x2 + 17x - 60 = 0
or (x + 20) (x - 3) = 0 or x = 3.
