To determine how many consecutive zeros the product of S will end with, we need to find the highest power of 10 that divides the product. This is equivalent to finding the highest power of 5 that divides the product, since the number of factors of 2 will always be greater than the number of factors of 5.
The primes in S are {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97}.
There are 24 primes in S, so the product of S is:
2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 11 x 13 x 17 x 19 x 23 x 29 x 31 x 37 x 41 x 43 x 47 x 53 x 59 x 61 x 67 x 71 x 73 x 79 x 83 x 89 x 97
We need to find the highest power of 5 that divides this product. To do this, we count the number of factors of 5 in the prime factorization of each number in S.
5 appears once: 5
5 appears once: 25
5 appears once: 35
5 appears once: 55
5 appears once: 65
5 appears once: 85
So, there are six factors of 5 in the product of S. However, we also need to consider the powers of 5 that arise from the factors 25, 35, 55, and 65.
25 = 5 x 5 appears once: 25
35 = 5 x 7 appears once: 35
55 = 5 x 11 appears once: 55
65 = 5 x 13 appears once: 65
Each of these numbers contributes an additional factor of 5 to the product of S. Therefore, there are 6 + 4 = 10 factors of 5 in the product of S.
Since each factor of 5 corresponds to a factor of 10, we know that the product of S will end with 10 zeros. Therefore, the product of S will end with 10 consecutive zeros
Lets call the 5 litre jug as jug A and 3 litre jug as jug B. Now, follow the steps:
Fill jug A completely. Now it contains 5 litres.
Slowly pour the water from jug A to jug B until jug B is completely filled. Now, jug A contains 2 litres and jug B contains 3 litres.
Throw away the water in jug B so that it is completely empty. Now, jug A contains 2 litres and jug B is empty.
Transfer the water from jug A to jug B. Now, jug A is empty and jug B contains 2 litres.
Fill jug A completely. Now, jug A contains 5 litres and jug B contains 2 litres.
Transfer water from jug A to jug B until jug B is completely filled. Now, jug A contains 4 litres and jug B contains 3 litres.
Now you have 4 litres of water in jug A.

There should be 5(2+2+1) decimal places in the answer and the decimal place should end with 2(3*2*2=12) so the correct answer is a, no need for calculator. You can rule out all the other options because it does not satisfy this condition.
(x+2)+(x)+(x-2)
X+2+x+x-2=18
3x=18
X=6
The 3digit number is 864

Monday =y cheques
Tuesday =3y cheques
wednesday=4000 cheques
totaling to 16000 cheques
therefore y+3y+4000=16000 cheques
4y+4000=16000 cheques therefore 4y=16000-4000 cheques= 4y=12000cheques
therefore y=12000/4=3000 cheques
monday=3000 cheques
tuesday=3×3000=9000cheques

A can give B (5 min – 4 1/2 min) = 30 sec start.
The distance covered by B in 5 min = 1000 m.
Distance covered in 30 sec = (1000 * 30)/300 = 100 m.
A can give B 100m start.
