When a number is divided by 13, the remainder is 11. When the same number is divided by 17, then remainder is 9. What is the number ?

A. 339
B. 349
C. 369
D. Data inadequate

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

x = 13p + 11 and x = 17q + 9

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
13p + 11 = 17q + 9

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
17q - 13p = 2

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
q =
2 + 13p
17

The least value of p for which q = 2 + 13p is a whole number is p = 26
17

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
x = (13 x 26 + 11)

   = (338 + 11)

   = 349

(51 + 52 + 53 + ... + 100) = ?

A. 2525
B. 2975
C. 3225
D. 3775

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Sn = (1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 50 + 51 + 52 + ... + 100) - (1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 50)

    = 100 x (1 + 100) - 50 x (1 + 50)
2 2

    = (50 x 101) - (25 x 51)

    = (5050 - 1275)

    = 3775.

The difference of the squares of two consecutive even integers is divisible by which of the following integers ?

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the two consecutive even integers be 2n and (2n + 2). Then,

(2n + 2)2 = (2n + 2 + 2n)(2n + 2 - 2n)

     = 2(4n + 2)

     = 4(2n + 1), which is divisible by 4.

The sum of even numbers between 1 and 31 is:

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let Sn = (2 + 4 + 6 + ... + 30). This is an A.P. in which a = 2, d = 2 and l = 30

Let the number of terms be n. Then,

a + (n - 1)d = 30

  

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
   2 + (n - 1) x 2 = 30

  

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
  n = 15.

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
Sn =
n (a + l) = 15 x (2 + 30) = (15 x 16) = 240.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Unit digit in 34 = 1

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
Unit digit in (34)16 = 1

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
Unit digit in 365 = Unit digit in [ (34)16 x 3 ] = (1 x 3) = 3

Unit digit in 659 = 6

Unit digit in 74

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
Unit digit in (74)17 is 1.

Unit digit in 771 = Unit digit in [(74)17 x 73] = (1 x 3) = 3

A. 7 and 4
B. 7 and 5
C. 8 and 5
D. None of these

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the given number be 476 xy 0.

Then (4 + 7 + 6 + x + y + 0) = (17 + x + y) must be divisible by 3.

And, (0 + x + 7) - (y + 6 + 4) = (x - y -3) must be either 0 or 11.

x - y - 3 = 0   

When a number is divided by 13 the remainder is 11?
y = x - 3

(17 + x + y) = (17 + x + x - 3) = (2x + 14)
