Aman sold an item at 15% loss. If he had sold for Rs. 8320 more, he would have made a profit of 17%. At what price it should be sold to get a profit of 62%?
Aman sold an item at 15% loss. If he had sold for Rs. 8320 more, he would have made a profit of 17%. At what price it should be sold to get a profit of 62%?
32% of CP = Rs. 8320 or CP = Rs. 26000
Now the Aman wants a profit of 62%.
Therefore, he has to sell it at a price of 26000 * 1.62 = 42120
A solid sphere of radius 12 inches is melted and cast into a right circular cone whose base diameter is times its slant height. If the radius of the sphere and the cone are the same, how many such cones can be made and how much material is left out?
A solid sphere of radius 12 inches is melted and cast into a right circular cone whose base diameter is times its slant height. If the radius of the sphere and the cone are the same, how many such cones can be made and how much material is left out?
The solid sphere is melted and recast into cones. The volume of material is the same before and after casting.
Volume of the sphere = . (1)
Volume of the right circular cone = . (2)
Diameter of the base of the cone
= slant height

Find the number of common root of the equations.
5x2 + 2x – 7 = 0
6x2 + 43x – 49 = 0
Find the number of common root of the equations.
5x2 + 2x – 7 = 0
6x2 + 43x – 49 = 0
(6x2 + 43x – 49) – (5x2 + 2x – 7) = 0
x2 + 41x – 42 = 0
x2 + 42x – x – 42 = 0
x (x + 42) – 1 (x + 42) = 0
(x – 1) (x + 42) = 0
x = 1 satisfy both the equations. So, there is only one common root.
If the number 79P856776Q is divisible by 4, 9 and 5 then, what are the respective values of P and Q?
If the number 79P856776Q is divisible by 4, 9 and 5 then, what are the respective values of P and Q?
Q can be 0 or 5, but 65 is not divisible by 4.
So, Q must be 0.
Now, sum of the digit should be divisible by 9.
So, P is 8.
Atul decided to distribute gold coins to his three sons in the following way 2nd son would get of what the 1st son would get and the 3rd son would get set of what the 2nd son would get. 1st son got 60 gold coins more than the 3rd son. How many gold coins were distributed to the three sons?
Atul decided to distribute gold coins to his three sons in the following way 2nd son would get of what the 1st son would get and the 3rd son would get set of what the 2nd son would get. 1st son got 60 gold coins more than the 3rd son. How many gold coins were distributed to the three sons?
Let y gold coins were given to 1st son.
Number of gold coins given to 2nd son =
Number of gold coins given to 3rd son =
So,
Hence, the required number of gold coins:
= 105 + 75 + 45 = 225
If a + b + c = 31, where a, b, c are distinct integer. What is the maximum value of a × b × c?
If a + b + c = 31, where a, b, c are distinct integer. What is the maximum value of a × b × c?
The sum of three numbers is given; the product will be maximum if the numbers are equal.
So, if a + b + c is defined, abc will be maximum when all three terms are equal. In this instance, however, with a, b, c being distinct integers, they cannot all be equal. So, we need to look at a, b, c to be as
If f(x) = (x – 1) (x – 3) (x – 7) (x – 9)………… (x – 99), then what will be the coefficient of x49 in f(x)?
If f(x) = (x – 1) (x – 3) (x – 7) (x – 9)………… (x – 99), then what will be the coefficient of x49 in f(x)?
Coefficient of x49 = − Sum of the roots of f (x)
= − (1 + 3 + 7 +9+ . + 99)
− (50)2= −2500
(15, 3)! is defined as the product of 3 consecutive numbers starting from 15. If H is the HCF of (15, 3)! and 3!, then what can be said about H?
(15, 3)! is defined as the product of 3 consecutive numbers starting from 15. If H is the HCF of (15, 3)! and 3!, then what can be said about H?
(15, 3)! = Product of 3 consecutive natural numbers starting from 15, which is at least divisible by 3!
Hence, H = 3!
In how many ways can we arrange the alphabets of the word ARRANGE such that all the vowels are together?
In how many ways can we arrange the alphabets of the word ARRANGE such that all the vowels are together?
Consider the vowels A, E as one unit. Besides this, we have 2R, 1N, 1G that is a total of 5 things out of which the 2 R are identical.
Required number of ways
Now A, A and E can be arranged within themselves in ways.
Required answer =
Logx 8x =
Logx 8 + logxx =
Logx 8 =
x = 83
x = 512
