  1. When a number is divided by 357 the remainder is 39. If that number is divided by 17, the remainder will be :








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Here, 357 is exactly divisible by 17.
    ∴  Required remainder = Remainder obtained on dividing 39 by
    17

    Correct Option: C

    Here, 357 is exactly divisible by 17.
    ∴  Required remainder = Remainder obtained on dividing 39 by
    17
    ⇒ 39 = ( 17 × 2 ) + 5
    Hence required answer is 5 .

  1. A number when divided successively by 4 and 5 leaves remainder 1 and 4 respectively.
    When it is successively divided by 5 and 4 the respective remainders will be

    According to question ,
    The least number X in this case will be determined as follows:
    Y = 5 × 1 + 4 = 9

    X = 4 × Y + 1 = 4 × 9 + 1 = 37
    Now,

    Correct Option: C

    According to question ,
    The least number X in this case will be determined as follows:
    Y = 5 × 1 + 4 = 9

    X = 4 × Y + 1 = 4 × 9 + 1 = 37
    Now,

    Hence, the respective remainders are 2, 3.

  1. Each member of a picnic party contributed twice as many rupees as the total number of members and the total collection was 3042. The number of members present in the party was

    Let the required number of persons be N.
    According to the question,
    2N2 = 3042

    Correct Option: A

    Let the required number of persons be N.
    According to the question,
    2N2 = 3042

    ⇒   N2 =
    3042
    		 = 1521
    2

    ⇒   N = √1521 = 39

  1. In a division problem, the divisor is 4 times the quotient and 3 times the remainder. If remainder is 4, the dividend is

    Given , Remainder = 4
    According to question ,
    Divisor = 3 × Remainder
    ⇒ Divisor = 3 × 4 = 12
    Again, divisor = 4 × quotient
    ⇒ 4 × quotient = 12

    Correct Option: B

    Given , Remainder = 4
    According to question ,
    Divisor = 3 × Remainder
    ⇒ Divisor = 3 × 4 = 12
    Again, divisor = 4 × quotient
    ⇒ 4 × quotient = 12

    ⇒ Quotient =
    12
    		 = 3
    4

    ⇒ Dividend = 3 × 12 + 4 = 40

  1. How many natural numbers divisible by 7 are there between 3 and 200 ?








  1. View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum

    Number just greater than 3 which is divisible by 7 = 7
    Number just smaller than 200
    which is divisible by 7 = 196
    Here, a = 7, an = 196,
    d = 7, n = 8

    Correct Option: B

    Number just greater than 3 which is divisible by 7 = 7
    Number just smaller than 200
    which is divisible by 7 = 196
    Here, a = 7, an = 196,
    d = 7, n = 8
    ∴ an = a + (n –1)d
    ⇒ 196 = 7 + (n – 1) × 7

    ⇒ n − 1 =
    196 − 7
    		 = 27
    7

    ⇒  n = 27 + 1 = 28
    2nd method to solve this question
    We can find the answer after dividing 200 by 7.
    The quotient is our answer.
