-  If a =16 and b= 5, the value of (a2+ b2+ ab) / (a3 - b3) is ?
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Given Exp. = (a2+ b2+ ab) / (a3-b3) 
 = 1 / (a - b)Correct Option: AGiven Exp. = (a2+ b2+ ab) / (a3-b3) 
 = 1 / (a - b)
 = 1 / (16 - 5)
 = 1/11.
-  Five time of a position integer is equal to 3 less then twice the square of that number. Find the number.

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let the number be N 
 According to the question 5N = 2N2 - 3Correct Option: ALet the number be N 
 According to the question 5N = 2N2 - 3
 ⇒ 2N2 - 5N -3 = 0
 ⇒ (N - 3) (2N + 1) = 0
 N = 3 & -1/2
 Thus the required number is 3
-  A student was asked to multiply a number by 3/2 but he divided that number by 3/2. The result was therefore 10 less then the correct answer. Find the number.

                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let the number be N 
 According to the question,
 [N x (3/2)] - [N / (3/2)] =10Correct Option: BLet the number be N 
 According to the question,
 [N x (3/2)] - [N / (3/2)] =10
 ⇒ 3N/2 - 2N/3 = 10
 ⇒ (9N - 4N)/6 = 10
 ⇒ 5N / 6 = 10
 ∴ N = (10 x 6)/5 =12
-  The sum of five consecutive odd number is equal to 175. What is the sum of the second large number and the square of the smallest number among them together?
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Sum of the five consecutive odd number = N + (N + 2) + (N + 4) + (N + 6) + (N + 8) =175 Correct Option: DSum of the five consecutive odd number = N + (N + 2) + (N + 4) + (N + 6) + (N + 8) =175 
 ⇒ 5N + 20 =175
 ⇒ N = (175 - 20) / 5 = 31
 Sum of the second largest and square of smallest one = (31 + 6) + (31)2
 = 37 + 961=998
-  On children day sweet were to be equally distributed among 300 children. But on that particular day 50 children remain absent hence each child got one extra sweet. How many sweet were distributed ?
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum let the total number of sweet = N 
 According to the question
 (N/250) - (N/300) = 1Correct Option: Clet the total number of sweet = N 
 According to the question
 (N/250) - (N/300) = 1
 ⇒ (6N - 5N) / 1500=1
 ∴ N = 1500
