Question: 1
The sum of the squares of two numbers is 3341 and the difference of their squares is 891. Their numbers are
(A) 25, 36
(B) 25, 46
(C) 25, 56
(D) 35, 46
Ans: D
Let the numbers be x and y. Then,
x2 + y2 = 3341 -----(i)
and x2 - y2 = 891 ----(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii) we get
2x2 = 4232 or x2 = 2116 or x = 46.
Subtracting (ii) from (i), we get
2y2 = 2450 or y2 = 1225 or y = 35.
So, the numbers are 35 and 46.
Question: 2
A number consists of two digits. The sum of the digits is 9. If 63 is subtracted from the number, its digits are interchanged. Find the number.
(A) 61
(B) 71
(C) 81
(D) 91
Ans: C
Let the ten’s digit be x.
Then, unit’s digit = (9 - x).
Number = 10x + (9 - x) = 9x + 9
Number obtained by reversing the digits
= 10 (9 - x) + x = 90 - 9x.
∴ (9x + 9) - 63 = 90 - 9x ⇔ 18x = 144 ⇔ x = 8.
So, ten’s digit = 8 and unit’s digit = 1.
Hence, the required number is 81.
Question: 3
If doubling a number and adding 20 to the result gives the same answer as multiplying the number by 8 and taking away 4 from the product, the number is
(A) 1
(B) 2
(C) 3
(D) 4
Ans: D
Let the number be x.
Then, 2x + 20 = 8x - 4 ⇔ 6x = 24
⇔ x = 4.
Question: 4
The average of four consecutive even numbers is 27. Find the largest of these numbers.
(A) 10
(B) 20
(C) 30
(D) 40
Ans: C
Let the four consecutive even number be x, x + 2, x + 4 and x + 6.
Then, sum of these number = (27 × 4) = 108.
So, x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 108 or 4x = 96 or x = 24.
∴ Largest number = (x + 6) = 30.
Question: 5
The sum of two positive integers multiplied by the bigger number is 204, and their difference multiplied by the smaller number is 35. The numbers are
(A) 12, 5
(B) 13, 4
(C) 14, 3
(D) 24, 10
Ans: A
Let the numbers be x and y such that x > y.
Then, x (x + y) = 204 ⇒x2 + xy = 204 -----(i)
and y(x - y) = 35 ⇒ xy – y2 = 35 -----(ii)
Subtracting (ii) from (i), we get : x2 + y2 = 169.
The only triple satisfying this condition is (12, 5, 13).
Thus, x = 12, y = 5.
