- Divisibility
1. Find least value of k so that 7k5 is divisible by 3:
- A. 0
- B. 1 (Correct)
- C. 2
- D. 3
Explanation: Digit sum = 7+k+5=12+k. For divisibility by 3, 12+k must be divisible by 3. k=0 → 12 ✓. But if k must be minimum positive: k=0 qualifies. Answer: 0.
- Unit Digit
2. Unit digit of 13^73 + 7^55:
- A. 0
- B. 2
- C. 4
- D. 6 (Correct)
Explanation: The unit digit of 13^73 is the unit digit of 3^73, which is 3. The unit digit of 7^55 is also 3. So the sum has unit digit 6.
- Prime Numbers
3. How many prime numbers are between 40 and 60?
- A. 3
- B. 4 (Correct)
- C. 5
- D. 6
Explanation: Primes: 41, 43, 47, 53 = 4 primes.
- HCF
4. The greatest number that divides 248, 318, and 458 leaving remainder 8 each time:
- A. 10 (Correct)
- B. 15
- C. 20
- D. 25
Explanation: Subtract 8: 240, 310, 450. HCF = HCF(240,310,450)=10.
- LCM
5. LCM of 2/3, 4/9, and 8/27 is:
- A. 2/27
- B. 8/3 (Correct)
- C. 2/9
- D. 8/27
Explanation: LCM of fractions = LCM of numerators/HCF of denominators = LCM(2,4,8)/HCF(3,9,27) = 8/3.
- Number Property
6. The product of two consecutive even numbers is 3968. The numbers are:
- A. 60,62
