Question Detail

Two numbers differ by 5. If their product is 336, then sum of two number is

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Friends you remember,
\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y)^2 = (x-y)^2 + 4xy
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y)^2 = (5)^2 + 4(336)
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y) = \sqrt{1369} = 37
\end{aligned}

1. Sum of two numbers is 40 and their difference is 4. The ratio of the numbers is

10:3
5:9
11:9
13:9

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
=> \frac{(x+y)}{(x-y)} = \frac{40}{4}
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> (x+y)= 10(x-y)
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> 9x = 11y => \frac{x}{y} = \frac{11}{9}
\end{aligned}

2. Difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the two digits is 36, what is the difference between two numbers

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the ten digit be x, unit digit is y.
Then (10x + y) - (10y + x) = 36
=> 9x - 9y = 36
=> x - y = 4.

3. A number is doubled and 9 is added. If resultant is trebled, it becomes 75. What is that number

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

=> 3(2x+9) = 75
=> 2x+9 = 25
=> x = 8

4. Sum of three numbers 264, If the first number be twice then second and third number be one third of the first, then the second number is

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the second number is x, then first is 2x, and third is 1/3(2x)
\begin{aligned}
=>2x + x + \frac{2x}{3} = 264 <=> \frac{11x}{3} = 264
\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned}
=> x = 72
\end{aligned}

5. Find the number, when 15 is subtracted from 7 times the number, the result is 10 more than twice of the number

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the number be x.
7x -15 = 2x + 10 => 5x = 25 => x = 5
