Ques:- How many numbers greater than 5000 can be formed with four of the digits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 where no digit can be repeated
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-29 17:47:29:

When none of the digits are repeated:

The hundred’s place can be filled by any of the digits: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 or 8 except the one which has already been used at the thousand’s place, so it can be filled in 5 ways.

Similarly tens’ place can be filled in 4 ways: only those 4 numbers which have not been use either at hundred’s or thousand’s place.
Unit’s place can be filled in only 3 ways. So, total number of nos. Possible =4×5×4×3= 240

Ques:- In a series of six consecutive even numbers, the sum of the second and sixth numbers is 24. What is the fourth number?
Recent Answer : Added by Mogomotsi On 2021-11-24 16:45:04:

2a; 2a+2; 2a+4; 2a+6; 2a+8; 2a+10

t_2 + t_6 = 24 => 2a+2 + 2a + 10 = 24 => a = 3

therefore t_4 = 2(3) + 6 = 12

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:01:36:

Let the number be X,
Instead of dividing the number by 10, i.e.,X*10.
he got the result as 100,
so, (X*10)=100
X=100/10
X=10.
BUt he has to divide X by 10,
so, X/10=10/10=1.
obviously the answer is 1.

Ques:- A train 800 m long is running at a speed of 78 km/hr. If it crosses a tunnel in 1 min, then the length of the tunnel is?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2022-09-28 18:39:42:

Let length of tunnel is x meter
Distance = 800+x meter
Time = 1 minute = 60 seconds

Speed = 78 km/hr = 78*5/18 m/s = 65/3 m/s

Distance = Speed*Time
=>800+x=653∗60=>800+x=20∗65=1300=>x=1300−800=500
