Let the unit’s digit of the number be $y$ and ten’s digit be $x$

=> Number = $10x + y$

According to ques, =>$x – y = 2$ ————–(i)

According to question, => $10x + y – 18 = 10y + x$

=> $9x – 9y = 18$

=> $x – y = \frac{18}{9} = 2$ ————–(ii)

Equations (i) and (ii) are same and thus we have two variables and one equation

Number can be = 97 , 86 , 75 , 64 and so on and thus the solution cannot be determined.

=> Ans – (D)

If 2957 is divisible 17, => 2957 = 17 $\times$ 173 + 16

Quotient is 173 and remainder is 16

Thus, smallest number that should be added to 2957 so that the sum is completely divisible by 17 = (17 – 16) = 1

=> Ans – (D)

If the ratio of the number and its inverse is an integer, then given number can be obtained.

(A) : $\frac{3768}{8673}=0.4$

(B) : $\frac{4893}{3984}=1.2$

(C) : $\frac{6294}{4926}=1.2$

(D) : $\frac{9801}{1089}=9$

=> Ans – (D)

Let the three consecutive numbers be $(x-1) , (x) , (x+1)$

Sum of these numbers = $x – 1 + x + x + 1 = 15$

=> $x = 5$

Numbers are = 4 , 5 & 6

Product of these numbers = 4*5*6 = 120

Let the number of temples in the city be $x$

Also, he offers $x$ flowers in each temple

Total number of flowers he offered = $x^2 = 5 \times 125$

=> $x = \sqrt{625} = 25$

243 = 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3

= $3^3 * 3^2$

Thus, required number to be multiplied = 3

It is given that $aΘ b =a^{2}\frac{b}{{3}}$

Applying the same rule for $2Θ {3Θ(-1)}$

= 2 Θ ${\frac{3^2 \times (-1)}{3}}$

= 2 Θ -3

= $\frac{2^2 \times (-3)}{3} = -4$

Since the number has 4 digits, its square root will always have 2 digits.

=> Greatest 2 digit no. = 99

Greatest 4 digit no. which is perfect square = $99^2$ = 9801

The least number which is divisible by all natural numbers from 1 to 10

= L.C.M.(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)

= 2520
