        p2 - so your alternate career choice (i had mentioned civil services there) stems from your stint with #$@ ?
        me - no sir....dad in navy....engendered patriotism...serving country..

        p2 - but why Mba then...? why not the Civil services ?
        me - (ah ha !!) ....huge discussion...

                The answer is c.100%
                Let the no. be 10a+b. Then, according to the question
                (10b+a)-(10a+b)=3/4*(10a+b). Simplifying the above gives b=2a. So the tens digit is 100% more than the units digit.

                When the digits of a two-digit number are reversed, the number formed is 75% more than the original number. By what percent is the unit digit of the original number more/less than the tenth digit?
                Choose one answer.
                a. 300%
                b. 50%
                c. 100%
                d. 200%

                Anyone please tell me how to approach these questions...


                The answer is c.100%

                Let the no. be 10a+b. Then, according to the question

                  u mean to say tht last two digits are 30 ?

                  b d way how is Units digit of 1^8+2^8+...+9^8 is 3.


                  Units digit of 1^8=1
                  2^8=6
                  3^8=1
                  4^8=6
                  5^8=5
                  6^8=6
                  7^8=1
                  8^8=6
                  9^8=1
                  10^8=0
                  So, its sum = 33. The same is obtained for adding the units digits of 11^8,12^8,13^8 till 20^8. So, summing the units digits till 100^8 gives 330. So, the last two digits are 30.

                      The sum of the unit digits from 1^8 to 9^8 multiplied by ten gives the units digit of 1^8+2^8+3^8+...+100^8. So, the units digit of 1^8+2^8+...+9^8 gives the second digit of 1^8+2^8+3^8+...100^8.
                      Units digit of 1^8+2^8+...+9^8 is 3. So, the tens digit of 1^8+2^8+3^8+...100^8 is 3.
