2 : 2. To Form the Greatest and the Smallest Numbers
Q. 2
Find the difference between the greatest and the smallest three digit
numbers formed by using 5, 0 and 1 each only once.
[1] 400
[2] 405
[3] 495
[4] 404
Wrong! You Entered : 0, Correct Answer : 2.
Greatest number using 5 , 1 , 0 = 510 (Descending)
Smallest number using 5 , 1 , 0 = 105
(0 can not come at hundred's place , because that will make that number
2 digits number)
Difference 510 – 105 = 405

Wrong! You Entered : 0, Correct Answer : 1.
Assume mother's present age is x
Before 10 years mother's age was x – 10
Daughter's present age = 70 – x
Before 10 years daughter's age = 70 – x – 10
= 60 – x
<www.mahaedutechnet.org> 3 (x – 10) = 7 (60 – x)
3x – 30 = 420 – 7x
7x + 3x = 420 + 30
10x = 450
x = 45
Mother's present age = 45 years.
