Solutions: 1 to 5

1) Answer (b)
The numbers 6,9,12,15,18 leaves same remainder 2 in each case.
So, what we need to do is find the L.C.M. of these numbers and add 2 to it
L.C.M. of 6,9,12,15,18 = 180
=>Required no. = 180+2 = 182

2) Answer (d)

NOTE :- Sum of first ‘n’ odd natural numbers = n^{2}
Sum of first ‘n’ even natural numbers = n(n+1)
Sum of first 20 odd natural numbers = 20^{2} = 400
Arithmetic mean = 400/20 = 20

3) Answer (b)

The remainder obtained by dividing 2055 by 27 = 3
So, the least number that should be ‘subtracted’ from 2055 to make it perfectly divisible by 27 = 3
and the least number that should be added = 27-3 = 24

4) Answer (b)

Square root of 66049 = 257

Thus, unit’s digit = 7

5) Answer (d)

Let the sum = x

rate = 10% and time = 2 years

Amount after compound interest = $x (1 + \frac{10}{100})^{2}$ = 12100

=> $\frac{121x}{100}$ = 12100

=> x = 10,000
