L. C. M of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 is 120
Now, 120 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5Correct Option: D
L. C. M of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 is 120
Now, 120 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
∴ Required number = (2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5) x (2 x 3 x 5)
= 3600
- If a = (√5 + 1) / (√5 - 1) and b = (√5 - 1) / ( √5 + 1) then the value of (a2 + ab + b2) / (a2 - ab + b2) is ?

a = [(√5 + 1) / (√5-1)] x [(√5 + 1) / (√5 + 1)]
= (√5 + 1)2 / (5 - 1)
= (5 + 1 + 2 √5) / 4
= (3 + √5) / 2
b = [(√5 - 1) / (√5 + 1)] x [(√5 - 1 ) / (√5 -1)]
= (√5 - 1 )2 / (5 - 1)
= (5 + 1 - 2√5) / 4
= (3 - √5) / 2
Now a2 + b2 = [(3 + √5)2 + (3 - √5)2] / 4
= [2 x (9 + 5 )] / 4
= 7
ab = 1Correct Option: B
a = [(√5 + 1) / (√5-1)] x [(√5 + 1) / (√5 + 1)]
= (√5 + 1)2 / (5 - 1)
= (5 + 1 + 2 √5) / 4
= (3 + √5) / 2
b = [(√5 - 1) / (√5 + 1)] x [(√5 - 1 ) / (√5 -1)]
= (√5 - 1 )2 / (5 - 1)
= (5 + 1 - 2√5) / 4
= (3 - √5) / 2
Now a2 + b2 = [(3 + √5)2 + (3 - √5)2] / 4
= [2 x (9 + 5 )] / 4
= 7
ab = 1
∴ (a2 + ab + b2) / (a2 - ab + b2)
= (7 + 1) / (7 - 1)
= 8/6
= 4 / 3

(√5 - √3)/ (√5 + √3)
= (√5 - √3) / (√5 + √3)
= (√5 - √3)2 / (5 - 3)
= (5 + 3 - 2√5 x 3) / 2
= 2 (4 - √15) / 2
= (4 - √15)Correct Option: B
(√5 - √3)/ (√5 + √3)
= (√5 - √3) / (√5 + √3)
= (√5 - √3)2 / (5 - 3)
= (5 + 3 - 2√5 x 3) / 2
= 2 (4 - √15) / 2
= (4 - √15)
- The least number by which 216 must be divided to make the result a perfect square is ?
-
View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum
216 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3
= (2 x 2) x 2 x ( 3 x 3) x 3
Clearly, in order to make it a perfect square, it must be divided by 2 x 3 i.e., 6 .Correct Option: C
216 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3
= (2 x 2) x 2 x ( 3 x 3) x 3
Clearly, in order to make it a perfect square, it must be divided by 2 x 3 i.e., 6 .
- √0.04 x 0.4 x a = 0.4 x 0.04 x √b, then the value of a/b is ?

View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum
√0.04 x 0.4 x a = 0.4 x 0.04 x √b
⇒ √0.016 a = 0.016 x √b
⇒ √a / √b = 0.016/√0.016 = √0.016Correct Option: A
√0.04 x 0.4 x a = 0.4 x 0.04 x √b
⇒ √0.016 a = 0.016 x √b
⇒ √a / √b = 0.016/√0.016 = √0.016
∴ √a/b = √0.016
So a/b = 0.016
