Number System
-  If two numbers are each divided by the same divisor, the remainders are respectively 3 and 4. If the sum of the two numbers be divided by the same divisor, the remainder is 2. The divisor is

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let two numbers are a and b and the divisor is d . 
 According to question ,∴ R1 = a = 3 d ∴ R2 = b = 4 d 
 Correct Option: CLet two numbers are a and b and the divisor is d . 
 According to question ,∴ R1 = a = 3 d ∴ R2 = b = 4 d Now , R = 3 + 4 = 3 + 4 = 2 d d 
 ⇒ 7 - 2 = 5 is divisible by d .
 Required divisor = 5 { ∴ d > 4 }
 
-  A number consists of two digits. If the number formed by interchanging the digits is added to the original number, the resulting number (i.e. the sum) must be divisible by

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let the number be 10a + b . 
 After interchanging the digits, the number obtained = 10b + a.Correct Option: ALet the number be 10a + b . 
 After interchanging the digits, the number obtained = 10b + a.
 According to the question,
 Resulting number = 10a + b + 10b + a
 Resulting number = 11a + 11b
 Resulting number = 11 (a + b)
 which is exactly divisible by 11.
-  When two numbers are separately divided by 33, the remainders are 21 and 28 respectively. If the sum of the two numbers is divided by 33, the remainder will be

 If two numbers are separately divided by a certain divisor (d) leaving remainders r1 and r2, then remainder after their sum is divided by the same divisor.Correct Option: DHere , d = 33 
 If two numbers are separately divided by a certain divisor (d) leaving remainders r1 and r2, then remainder after their sum is divided by the same divisor.
 Required Remainder = r1 + r2 – d
 Required Remainder = 21 + 28 – 33 = 16
-  When a number is divided by 24, the remainder is 16. The remainder when the same number is divided by 12 is

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum According to question , 
 ∴Number , remainder = 16 24 
 Correct Option: BAccording to question , 
 ∴Number , remainder = 16 24 
 Required remainder = 16 – 12 = 4 (because 24 is a multiple of 12.)
-  In a division sum, the divisor is 10 times the quotient and 5 times the remainder. If the remainder is 46, then the dividend is

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Given , Remainder = 46 
 As per the given question ,
 Divisor = 5 × Remainder
 Divisor = 5 × 46 = 230
 And Divisor = 10 × Quotient
 Quotient =230 = 23 10 
 Correct Option: DGiven , Remainder = 46 
 As per the given question ,
 Divisor = 5 × Remainder
 Divisor = 5 × 46 = 230
 And Divisor = 10 × Quotient
 Quotient =230 = 23 10 
 ∴ Dividend = Divisor ×
 Quotient + Remainder
 Dividend = 230 × 23 + 46
 Required dividend = 5290 + 46 = 5336
