Quantity – I

GIVEN:

Let y = 125487 x 59248 x 26527

RULES USED:

⇒ Divisibility of 11 = Difference of alternate sum must be zero or eleven.

CALCULATION:

⇒ Remainder = (125487 x 59248 x 26527)

⇒ Remainder = (1 x 2 x 6)

⇒ Remainder = 12/11

⇒ Remainder = 1

Quantity – II

GIVEN:

⇒ Let Y = 134⁶⁴¹ + 4654¹⁶⁵ + 90528⁷⁸⁰² 

CONCEPT USED:

1. 4^{even digit} = Unit digit = 6

2. 4^{odd digit} = Unit digit = 4

CALCULATION:

⇒ Unit digit of 134⁶⁴¹ = 4

⇒ Unit digit of 4654¹⁶⁵ = 4

⇒ Unit digit of 90528⁷⁸⁰² = (8²) = 4

⇒ Adding all = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12

⇒ Unit digit = 2

GIVEN:

⇒ Sanket : Mother = 5x : 8x      ----(1)

⇒ Sanket : Father = 1x : 4x      ----(2)

CONCEPT:

1. Ratio balancing.

2. Difference between the ages of two people will remain the same.

CALCULATION:

Making ratio common.

⇒ Sanket : Mother : Father = 5x : 8x : 20x      ----(3)

Age of father 8 years back = 32 years.

Father’s present age = 40 years.

⇒ 20x = 40 years

⇒ 1x = 2 years

⇒ Present age of mother = 16 years.

⇒ Age of mother after 8 years = 24 years.
