80 mins = 1hour

In another clock, 65 mins = 1 hour.

in 24hours, 24*(80 - 65) = 360 mins

as shown by correct clock, it is 6hours.

Total numebr of factors= 4*5*2= 40 (including 1 and number itself)

Actually answer is 60
54*4(4*58+4^2+124)
=> (2*3^3)(2^2)*4(58+4+31)
=> (2)^5*3^3*93
=> (2)^5*3^4*31

So no of factors: (5+1)*(4+1)*(1+1) = 60

Thanks

Re: official quant thread for CAT 2009 - 05-07-2009, 03:02 PM

Shakuntala asked Aryabhatta to assume any two values of three digits say P and Q. Then she told him to multiply P by R and Q by S where the values of R and S were given by Shakuntala herself.

Aryabhatta exactly told her the value of PR+QS = 888222.

Then Shakuntala told him the value of P+Q. Can you find out that value?

its 8 + 2 = 10
approach...
here R and S should be 1 and 1000 to knw both the nos.
hence we get P = 2 and Q = 8
hence P + Q = 10
