$\Rightarrow$ $\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6}}$
$\Rightarrow$ $\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{(\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{6})}{(\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6})*(\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{6})}$
$\Rightarrow$ $\dfrac{1}{x}=\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{6}$ … (1)

We know that $(a-b)^3=a^3-b^3-3ab(a-b)$
$\Rightarrow$ $(x-\dfrac{1}{x})^3=x^3-\dfrac{1}{x^3}-3x*\dfrac{1}{x}(x-\dfrac{1}{x})$
$\Rightarrow$ $[(\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6})-(\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6})]^3=x^3-\dfrac{1}{x^3}-3[(\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6})-(\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{6})]$
$\Rightarrow$ $[-2\sqrt{6}]^3=x^3-\dfrac{1}{x^3}-3[-2\sqrt{6}]$

$\Rightarrow$ $\dfrac{1}{x}=\sqrt{10}+3$ … (1)

We know that $(a-b)^3=a^3-b^3-3ab(a-b)$
$\Rightarrow$ $(x-\dfrac{1}{x})^3=x^3-\dfrac{1}{x^3}-3x*\dfrac{1}{x}(x-\dfrac{1}{x})$
$\Rightarrow$ $[(\sqrt{10}-3)-(\sqrt{10}+3)]^3=x^3-\dfrac{1}{x^3}-3[(\sqrt{10}-3)-(\sqrt{10}+3)]$
$\Rightarrow$ $[-6]^3=x^3-\dfrac{1}{x^3}-3[-6]$

Product of two numbers = Product of LCM and HCF

LCM $\times$ 19 = 1083

=> LCM = $\frac{1083}{19} = 57 27) Answer (B)$4^{128}$can be written as$16^{64}$and it can also be written as$(15+1)^{64}$In the binomial expansion of$(15+1)^{64}$each and every term other than the last term contains 15 and the last term is 1. So all the terms other than the last term i.e 1 are divisible by 15 and so the remainder obtained is 1. 28) Answer (A) coprime or relatively prime means the same, the GCD of both the numbers must be 1. As the given number is a prime number all the numbers less than that number will not have any common factor and so all the numbers less than 31 will be relatively prime to 31. Therefore required answer is 31-1=30. 29) Answer (A) Let the unit’s digit of the number be$y$and ten’s digit =$x$=> Number =$10x+y$After interchanging the digits, new number =$10y+x$According to ques, =>$(10x+y)-(10y+x)=27$=>$9x-9y=27$=>$9(x-y)=27$=>$(x-y)=\frac{27}{9}=3\therefore$Differences between the digits of the number = 3 => Ans – (A) 30) Answer (A) L.C.M. of (4,5,6) = 60 Numbers between 400 and 800 that are divisible by 60 are : 420, 480, ……., 780 The above series is an arithmetic progression with first term$=a=420$, common difference$=d=60$and last term$=l=780$Let number of terms be$n$Thus, last term of an A.P. =$l=a+(n-1)d$=>$420+(n-1)\times(60)=780$=>$(n-1)\times(60)=780-420=360$=>$(n-1)=\frac{360}{60}=6$=>$n=6+1=7\therefore$Numbers between 400 and 800 are divisible by 4, 5 and 6 = 7 => Ans – (A) 31) Answer (B)$t_{n}$=a+(n-1)d where$t_{n}=n^{th}$term, a= first term n=no. of terms d= difference between terms Here$t_{n}$= 97,a=74,d=1 97=74+(n-1)1$\Rightarrow$97=73+n$\Rightarrow$n=23 Sum of natural numbers between 74 and 97 is$S_{n}$=$\frac{n}{2}$[2a+(n-1)d] Here n=23, a=74, d=1$S_{n}$=$\frac{23}{2}$[74+(23-1)1] =$\frac{23}{2}\times172$=$23\times86$=1978$\therefore$Sum of natural numbers between 74 and 97 is 1978 32) Answer (D) Prime factorization of$24=(2)^3\times(3)^1$=> umber of positive factors =$(3+1)\times(1+1)$=$4\times2=8$=> Ans – (D) 33) Answer (B) Let the three consecutive even numbers be$(2n-2),(2n),(2n+2)$=> Sum of numbers =$(2n-2)+(2n)+(2n+2)=6n$Thus, the sum is always divisible by ‘6’ => Ans – (B) 34) Answer (C) Expression :$4^{11}+4^{12}+4^{13}+4^{14}\ $=$4^{11}(1+4+4^2+4^3)$=$4^{11}\times(1+4+16+64)$=$4^{11}\times(85)\because85$is divisible by 17, hence the above expression is also divisible by 17 => Ans – (C) 35) Answer (B) Expression :$\ 3^{11} + 3^{12} + 3^{13} + 3^{14}\ $=$3^{11}(1+3+3^2+3^3)$=$3^{11}\times(1+3+9+27)$=$3^{11}\times(40)\because40$is divisible by 8, hence the above expression is also divisible by 8 => Ans – (B) 36) Answer (D) Prime factorization of$40=(2)^3\times(5)^1$=> Number of factors =$(3+1)\times(1+1)$=$4\times2=8$=> Ans – (D) 37) Answer (C) Number of positive factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 i.e ‘9’ Hence, option C is the correct answer. 38) Answer (D) L.C.M. (12,18,21) = 252 Lowest five digit number = 10000 Now on dividing 10000 by 252, remainder =$10000\%252=172$Thus, smallest five digit number which is divisible by 12, 18 and 21 =$1000+(252-172)=10080$=> Ans – (D) 39) Answer (C) Number =$(142)^{2}-(1)^2$Using,$a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$=$(142-1)(142+1)$=$141\times143$=$(3\times47)\times(11\times13)\$

Thus, it is divisible by 13.

=> Ans – (C)
