In base 7 number is written only using the digits 0,1..6.the number 135 in base 7 is 1*(7^2)+3*(7^1)+5*(7^0)=75 in bse 10.what is the sum of base 7 numbers 1234 and 6543 in base 7? a)11101 b)11110 c)10111 d)11011 343+98+21+4=466 (1234) 2058+245+28+3=2334 (6543) thus addition in decimal=2800 now convert 2800 to base 7= 11110 7!2800 ! 0 -------7!400 ! 1 -------7! 57 ! 1 -------7! 8 ! 1 -------1!1 2800 (in decimal)==11110 (in base 7) The IT gaint Tirnop has recently crossed a head count of 150000 and earnings of $7 billions.As one of the forerunners in the technology front,Tirnop continues to leasd the way in product and services in India.At Tirnop all programmers are equal in every respect.They receive identical salaries & also write code at the same rate.Suppose 11 lines of code in total.How many lines of code can be written by 88 programmers in 88 minutes. a.)8 b.)704 c.)11 d.)88 formula=(programmer*time)/loc; 88*88/loc=11*11/11 loc=704an How many 3-digit numbers have even number of factors?(a) 22 (b) 879 (c) 21 (d) 878 Every factor of a number has a pair, so there ought to be an even number of factors for every number. However, if a pair of the factors are the same number, then there will be an odd number of factors, that is if the number is a perfect square. Assuming three digit numbers are 100 to 999: From 100 to 999, the perfect squares are 10^2 = 100 to 31^2 = 961, a total of 31-10+1 = 22 numbers. So of the 999-100+1 = 900 three digit numbers, 22 have an odd number of factors, so 900-22 = 878 have an even number of factors. in which of the system,decimal number 194 is equal to 1234? to find the solution in a easiest way... we know while dividing the first remainder holds the unit value...so,one with remainder 4 builds the system... we need to divide 2,3...9 with 194... well it sounds like a lot but,, 2 gives remainder 0.. 3 gives 2.. 4 gives 2.. 5 gives 4... 6 gives 2.. 7 gives 5.. 8 gives 2.. 9 gives 5.. so the answer will be 5.... if the desimal equivalent of 5434 to base x is 1246,what is the value of x? a) 8 b) 6 c)4 d) 2 2 and 4 is not possiable . Now 5a^3+4a^2+3a+4=1246 put the a=6 equation will be satisfy. The base address of a 2-D integer array NUMS of dimension 5*7 is 3000. What will be the address of element NUMS[3][6], if array indices start from 0 and each integer takes two bytes. a) 3056 b) 3038 c) 3054 d) 3036 as indices starts from 0 so nums[3][6] means you have to access 7th element of 4th row (as i mentioned index starts from 0 ). so before access this element we have to compute 3 rows and 6 elements of 4th row hence (3 rows * elements in row * size)+( 6 elements * size) so that (3*7*2)+(6*2)=54 so address of NUMS[3][6]=base+54 = 3054 answer is c)3054 If P(x) = ax^4 + bx^3 + cx^2 + dx + e has roots at x = 1; 2; 3 and 4, and P(0) = 48/ what is P(5)? a) 48 b) 24 c) 0 d) 50 e) none of these if 1 is a root then x-1 is a factor of p(x) similarly x-2 is a factor,x-3 ,x-4 are factors but p(x) is 4th degree polynomial therefore it can be in the form p(x) = k(x-1)(x-2)(x-3)(x-4) , where k is a constant but given p(0) =48 therefore 24 k =48 k=2 p(x) =2(x-1)(x-2)(x-3)(x-4) p(5)= 2*4*3*2*1 = 48 In a sequence of integers , A(n)= A(n-1)-A(n-2), where A(n) is the nth term in the sequence, n is the integer and n>=3 , A(1)=1, A(2)=1,. calculate S(1000), where S(1000) is the sum of the first 1000 terms ANS = 0 s(1000)= A(1) + A(2) + A(2)-A(1) + A(3)-A(2) ........ + A(998)-A(997) + A(999)-A(998) cross terms will cancel each other =>s(1000)= A(2)+ A(999) again by definition A(n)= A(n-1)-A(n-2)= (A(n-2)-A(n-3)) - A(n-2)= -A(n-3)=A(n-5) A(999)= A(994)=...=A(4)= -A(1)=-1 hence s(1000)=1+(-1)=0 7,5,9,12,18,36,47,72,? 5, 9, 12, 18, 26, 36, 47, 72, _? it is 5 ...... 12....... 26......... 47 12= 5+7 26= 12+2×7 47=26+3×7 Next is 47+4×7=75 and 9, 18, 36, 72 hence next 144 Therefore 5, 9, 12, 18, 26, 36, 47, 72, 75, 144 Alok is attending a workshop 'How to do more with less1 and today's theme is working with fewer digits. The speakers discuss how a lot of miraculous mathematics can be achieved if mankind (as well as womankind) had only worked with fewer digits. The problem posed at the end of the workshop is 'How many 8 digit numbers can be formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (but with repetition) that are divisible by 4?' Can you help Alok find the answer? ans 5^7 no divisible by 4 .last 2 digit should be divided by 4.. possibility is 12,24,32,44,52..so one possibility.last two got placed... remaining 6 digits.5^6 and 5(12,24,44,52,32).. then 5^7 if g(0)=1, G(1)=-1 and G(N)=G(N-1)+G(N-2) then g(5)=? g(0)=1 g(1)=-1 g(2)=g(1)+g(0) = -1 + 1 = 0 g(3) = g(2) + g(1) = 0 -1 = -1 g(4) = g(3) + g(2) = -1 + 0 = -1 g(5)= g(4) + g(3) = -1 + -1 = -2 The prime factorization of a number N is AxAxBxC, where A,B,C are all distinct prime integers.

Suppose 12 such programmers take 12 minutes to write 12 lines of code in total. How long will it take 72 programmers to write 72 lines of code in total? 18 72 6 12 12 programmers take 12 minute to write 12 lines so 1 programmer will take 12 minutes to write 1 line so 1 programmer will take 1 minute to write 1/12th of a line so 72 programmers will take 1 minute to write (1/12)*72 = 6 lines of code if 6 lines need 1 minute then 72 lines need (72/6) minutes = 12 minutes Ans : 12 Alok one such child finds only bicycles and wheeled wagons in this schoolyard. He counts the total number of wheels to be 36. What could be the possible number of bicycles? a)14 b)13 c)15 d)20 2x+4y=36 so from options we have to check the answer as if x=14 the only we can get valid output 0f y = 2 so answer is 14 The difference of two numbers is 1365. On dividing the larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder. What is the smaller number? (a) 240 (b) 270 (c) 295 (d) 360 ans b)270 x-y=1365 divide larger number by the smaller, we get 6 as quotient and the 15 as remainder x/y=6 quotient and 15 reminder convert this as x=6y+15 apply this x in above eqn therefore, 6y+15-y=1365 5y+15=1365 y+3=273 y=270 so ans is b)270. 23.

(a) 100 (b) 114 (c) 200 (d) 208 answer : (b) 114 Let us say there are x number of 1kg packets and y number of 2kg packets. Totally there are 150 packets so , x+y = 150 Next, total weight of box is given to be 264kg , therefore x(1kg)+y(2kg)= 264 Solving the two equations (eliminate x) we get y = 114 A man divides Rs.8600 among 5 sons, 4 daughters and 2 nephews. If each daughter receives four times as much as each nephew, and each son receives five times as much as each nephew, how much does each daughter receive? (a) Rs.800 (b) Rs.600 (c) Rs.200 (d) Rs.700 Answer : (a) 800 Let us say each nephew received rupees x So each daughter will get 4x and each son will get 5x There are 2 nephews, 4 daughters and 5 sons So 2(x)+4(2x)+5(5x) = 8600 43x = 8600 x = 200 sp each daughter gets 4x or 4*200 = 800 How many numbers can be formed using all of 1,2,3,4,5(without repetition),when the digit at the units place must be greater than that in the tenth place?
