S = {1,2, 3, …., n, 2022}
HCF (n, 2022) = 1
2022 = 2 * 1011 ->3 * 337
2022 = 2 * 3 * 337 (prime factorization)
Let n (A) = no members divisible by 2 = 1011
Let n (B) = no members divisible by 3 = 674
Let n (C) = no members divisible by 337 = 6
= 1011 + 674 + 6 – 337 – 2 – 3 + 1
= 1350
Prob.

106. Let 'x' be the no of days in which 150 workers took to finish the job.
If 150 workers worked for x days then number of workers for x days =150 x.
But given that number of works dropped 4 on 2nd day, then 4 on 3rd day and so on taking 8 more
days to finish the work. i.e., x + 8 days we can express as.
150 x = 150 + (150 4) + (150 4 4)+……+ (x + 8) days.
150 x = 150 + 146 + 142 +……… (x+8) days which
R.H.S. from as A.P. of
a = 150
d = -4 and n = x +8
So, Sn = 150 x
n [ 150 + (n - 1) (-2)] = 150 (n - 8) [ n = x +8 x 8 x]
150n 2n (n - 1) 150n 1200
2n2 + 2n 1200 =0

105. Given,
Cost of machine =? 15625
depreciation rate = 20 % each year.
We have,
Depreciated value after 1st year =? 15625 - 20 % of 15625
=? ?15625
=?
=?
=?
Similarly,
Depreciated value after 2nd year =? 15625 and so on.
This, Depreciated value at end of 5 years
=? 15625
=? 15625
=? 5120

104. Given,
Principal amount =? 10000
Amount at end of 1 year =?
=? (10000 + 500)
=? 10500 {Amount paid = principal + S.I. in a year}
Amount at end of 2nd year
=?
=? (10000 + 1000)10500 + 500
=? 11000
Amount at end of 3rd year
=?
=? (1000 + 1500)
=? 11500
So, amount at end of 1st, 2nd, 3rd ………, nth year forms as A.P.
i.e.? 10500? 11000? 115000, ………. with
a = 10500
d = 11000 - 10500 = 500
Now, Amount in 15th year = Amount at end of 14th year
=? 10500 + ( 14 - 1) * 500
=? 10500 + 13 * 500
=? 10500 + 6500
=? 17000
Similarly amount after 20th year, =? 10500+ (20 - 1) * 500
=? 10500 + 19 * 500
=? 10500 + 9500
=

103. As the number of letters mailed forms a G.P. i.e., 4, 42, ……., 48
We have,
a = 4
and n = 8
So, Total numbers of letters = 4 + 43 + ……. + 48
= 87380

102. Given, cost of scooter = ?22,000
Amount paid =? 4000
Amount unpaid =? 22,000 -? 4000 =? 18,000
Now, Number of installments =Amount unpaid/Amount of each instalment
As he per 10% interest on up unpaid amount and ?1000 each installment
Amount of 1st instalment =? 1000 +? = ?1000 + ?1800 =? 2800
Amount of 2nd installment =? 1000 +? =? 1000 +? 1700 =? 2700
Similarly,
Amount of 3rd installment =? 1000 +? =? 1000 +? 1600 =? 2600
So, Total installment paid =? 2800 +? 1600 =? 2600 + …… upto 18 installment
= 9 [5600 - 1700]
= 9 * 3900
=? 35,000
Total cost of scooter = Amount + Total instal
