2623.5358 x 51 = ?
273258
273268
273348
273358
Explanation:

5358 x 51= 5358 x$\left(50 + 1\right)$= 5358 x 50 + 5358 x 1= 267900 + 5358= 273258.

2624.The sum of first five prime numbers is:
11
18
26
28
Explanation:

Required sum = 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 = 28.

Note: 1 is not a prime number.

Definition: A prime number [or a prime] is a natural number that has exactly two distinct natural number divisors: 1 and itself.

2625.The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number ?
240
270
295
360
Explanation:

Let the smaller number be $ x $. Then larger number = $x$ + 1365.

$\therefore x $ + 1365 = 6$ x $ + 15

$\Rightarrow$ 5$ x $ = 1350

$\Rightarrow x $ = 270

$\therefore$Smaller number = 270.

2626.123 x 64 รท 432 = ?
5184
5060
5148
5084
Explanation:

Given Exp. =$ \dfrac{(12)^3 \times 64}{432} = \dfrac{(12)^3 \times 64}{12 \times 6^2} $= (12)2 x 62 = (72)2 = 5184

2627.72519 x 9999 = ?
725117481
674217481
685126481
696217481
Explanation:

72519 x 9999= 72519 x $\left(10000 - 1\right)$= 72519 x 10000 - 72519 x 1= 725190000 - 72519= 725117481.

2628.If the number 517*324 is completely divisible by 3, then the smallest whole number in the place of * will be:
0
1
2
None of these
Explanation:

Sum of digits = 5 + 1 + 7 + $ x $ + 3 + 2 + 4 = 22 + $ x $, which must be divisible by 3.

$\therefore$  $ x $ = 2.

2636.If the number 481 * 673 is completely divisible by 9, then the smallest whole number in place of * will be:
2
5
6
7
Explanation:

Sum of digits = (4 + 8 + 1 + x + 6 + 7 + 3) = (29 + x), which must be divisible by 9.

$\therefore$   $ x $ = 7.

2637.The difference between the local value and the face value of 7 in the numeral 32675149 is
75142
64851
5149
69993
Explanation:

Local value of 7 - Face value of 7 = 70000 - 7= 69993

2640.If $n$ is a natural number, then 6n2 + 6n is always divisible by:
6 only
6 and 12 both
12 only
by 18 only
Explanation:

6$n$2 + 6$n$ = 6$n$ $\left(n + 1\right)$, which is always divisible by 6 and 12 both, since $n$ $\left( n + 1\right)$ is always even.

2643.On dividing a number by 5, we get 3 as remainder. What will the remainder when the square of the this number is divided by 5 ?
0
1
2
4
Explanation:

Let the number be $ x $ and on dividing $ x $ by 5, we get $ k $ as quotient and 3 as remainder.

$\therefore$    $ x $ = 5k + 3

$\Rightarrow$    $ x $2 = (5k + 3)2

   = (25 k 2 + 30$ k $ + 9)

   = 5(5 k 2 + 6$ k $ + 1) + 4

$\therefore$On dividing $ x $2 by 5, we get 4 as remainder.

2648.How many 3 digit numbers are divisible by 6 in all ?
149
150
151
166
Explanation:

Required numbers are 102, 108, 114, ... , 996

This is an A.P. in which $ a $ = 102, $ d $ = 6 and $ l $ = 996

Let the number of terms be $ n $. Then,

$ a $ + $\left( n - 1\right)$ d = 996

  $\Rightarrow$ 102 + $\left( n - 1\right)$ x 6 = 996

  $\Rightarrow$ 6 x $\left( n - 1\right)$ = 894

  $\Rightarrow$ $\left( n - 1\right)$ = 149

  $\Rightarrow$ $ n $ = 150.

2653.On dividing a number by 357, we get 39 as remainder. On dividing the same number 17, what will be the remainder ?
0
3
5
11
Explanation:

Let $ x $ be the number and $ y $ be the quotient. Then,

$ x $ = 357 $x y $ + 39

  = $\left(17 \times 21 xy\right )$ + $\left(17 \times 2\right)$ + 5

  = 17 x $\left(21y + 2\right) + 5$

$\therefore$Required remainder = 5.

2654.If the product 4864 x 9 P 2 is divisible by 12, then the value of P is:
2
5
6
None of these
Explanation:

Clearly, 4864 is divisible by 4.

So, 9P2 must be divisible by 3. So, 9 + P + 2 must be divisible by 3.

$\therefore$ P = 1.

2661.What smallest number should be added to 4456 so that the sum is completely divisible by 6 ?
4
3
2
1
Explanation:

6) 4456 (742

    42

    -------

     25

     24

    -------

      16

      12

    --------

       4

Therefore, Required number = (6 - 4) = 2.

2666.If the number 5 * 2 is divisible by 6, then * = ?
2
3
6
7
Explanation:

6 = 3 x 2. Clearly, 5 * 2 is divisible by 2. Replace * by $ x $.

Then, 5 + $x$ + 2 must be divisible by 3. So, $ x $ = 2.

2669.$\left(1-\dfrac{1}{n}\right)$+$\left(1-\dfrac{2}{n}\right)$+$\left(1-\dfrac{3}{n}\right)$+.....up to n terms=?
$ \dfrac{1}{2} $n
$ \dfrac{1}{2} $(n - 1)
$ \dfrac{1}{2} $n(n - 1)
None of these
Explanation:

Given sum

= [1 + 1 + 1 + ... to n terms]-$(\dfrac{1}{n}+\dfrac{2}{n}+\dfrac{3}{n}+ ... $)to n terms

= $ n $ -$\dfrac{ n }{2}$$\left(\dfrac{1}{ n }\right)$+ 1    [ Ref: $ n $th terms = $\left( n / n\right )$ = 1]

= $ n $ -$\dfrac{ n + 1}{2} $

=$ \dfrac{1}{2} \left( n - 1\right)$

2674.51 + 52 + 53 + ... + 100 = ?
2525
2975
3225
3775
Explanation:

Sn = $\left(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 50 + 51 + 52 + ... + 100\right)$ - $\left(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 50\right)$

    =$ \dfrac{100}{2} $ x (1 + 100) -$ \dfrac{50}{2} $x (1 + 50)

    = $\left(50 \times 101\right)$ - $\left(25 \times 51\right)$

    = 5050 - 1275

    = 3775.

2686.Which one of the following numbers is completely divisible by 45?
181560
331145
202860
2033555
Explanation:

45 = 5 x 9, where 5 and 9 are co-primes.

Unit digit must be 0 or 5 and sum of digits must be divisible by 9.

Among given numbers, such number is 202860.

2687.Which of the following numbers will completely divide (325 + 326 + 327 + 328) ?
11
16
25
30
Explanation:

(325 + 326 + 327 + 328) = 325 x (1 + 3 + 32 + 33) = 325 x 40

     = 324 x 3 x 4 x 10

     = (324 x 4 x 30), which is divisible by30.

2689.The sum of the two numbers is 12 and their product is 35. What is the sum of the reciprocals of these numbers ?
$ \dfrac{12}{35} $
$ \dfrac{1}{35} $
$ \dfrac{35}{8} $
$ \dfrac{7}{32} $
Explanation:

Let the numbers be $ a $ and $ b $. Then, $ a $ + $ b $ = 12 and ab = 35.

$\therefore \dfrac{a + b}{ab} $=$ \dfrac{12}{35} $      $\Rightarrow$  $ \left(\dfrac{1}{b} +\dfrac{1}{a} \right) $=$ \dfrac{12}{35} $

$\therefore$ Sum of reciprocals of given numbers =$ \dfrac{12}{35} $
