ReplyDeletea)5:8
b)11:14
c)10:13
d)7:11
2.If aabb is a four digit no. and also a perfect square then the value of a+b is
a)12
b)11

3.The sum of any three distinct natural numbers arranged in ascending order is 200 such that the second number is perfect cube. How many possile values are there for this number?
a)4
b)3
c)2
d)1
plz give the solutns to these qsnts.
the answer to ques 2 is 11
ReplyDeletethe only possible number is 7744.
so a+b=11.
aur ques 1. ka
Let the intial length of short candle = x
n that of long candle = y
After 3 hours length of shorter one would be 8*x/11
n longer one would be 4*y/7
8*x/11 = 4*y/7
x/y = 11/14
ques3. abhi nhi ataa..ayega toh answer post krta hu.
dekho yar..ques ka exact matlab mjhe samajh nhi aya..try kia h
ReplyDeletethere are only 5 perfect cubes less than 200:
1, 8, 27, 64, and 125.
1 cant possible by the middle number (there is no natural number less than 1 to be the first number)
125 also cant be the middle number, (only 75 left for the first and second number, none of which are larger than 125)
So im guessing the remaining three possible
toh mere khayal se answer 3 hona chahiye.
