-  216 –1 is divisible by
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum ∵ 216 – 1 = (28)2–1 
 = (28+1) (28–1)Correct Option: C∵ 216 – 1 = (28)2–1 
 = (28+1) (28–1)
 = (256 + 1) (256 – 1)
 216 – 1 = 257 × 255 which is exactly divisible by 17.
-  Which one of the following will completely divide 571 + 572 + 573 ?
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum 571 + 572 + 573 = 571 (1 + 5 + 52) Correct Option: C571 + 572 + 573 = 571 (1 + 5 + 52) 
 ⇒ 571 + 572 + ⇒ 573 = 571 × which is exactly divisible by 155.
 Hence required answer is 155 .
-  The smallest number that must be added to 803642 in order to obtain a multiple of 11 is

 ∴ The required number = 11 – 4 = 7
 2nd Method to solve this question :
 Sum of digits at odd places = 2 + 6 + 0 = 8Correct Option: C 
 ∴ The required number = 11 – 4 = 7
 2nd Method to solve this question :
 Sum of digits at odd places = 2 + 6 + 0 = 8, sum of digits at even places = 4 + 3 + 8 = 15. For divisibility by 11, difference i.e., (15 – 8) = 0 or mutiple of 11.
 ∴ The required number = 7
-  If [n] denotes the greatest integer < n and (n) denotes the smallest integer > n, where n is any real number, then 1 1  ×  1 1  −  1 1  ÷  1 1  + (1.5) is 5 5 5 5

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum [n] < n (integer); (n) > n (integer) 
 ∴ Expression 1 1  ×  1 1  −  1 1  ÷  1 1  + (1.5) = 2 × 1 – 2 ÷ 1 + 2 5 5 5 5 Correct Option: B[n] < n (integer); (n) > n (integer) 
 ∴ Expression 1 1  ×  1 1  −  1 1  ÷  1 1  + (1.5) = 2 × 1 – 2 ÷ 1 + 2 = 2 5 5 5 5 
-  In a division sum, the divisor is 3 times the quotient and 6 times the remainder. If the remainder is 2, then the dividend is

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum According to question , 
 Divisor = 6 × Remainder
 Divisor = 6 × 2 = 12
 Again, Divisor = 3 × quotient∴ Quotient = 12 = 4 3 
 Correct Option: AAccording to question , 
 Divisor = 6 × Remainder
 Divisor = 6 × 2 = 12
 Again, Divisor = 3 × quotient∴ Quotient = 12 = 4 3 
 Dividend = 12 × 4 + 2
 Dividend = 48 + 2 = 50
