22222........300 times when divided by 999 leaves remainder?

Remainder when 123456789...40 divided by 36 ?

Can someone help me out in this whats the difference between arun sharma and

Nishit Sinha book i already have been doing arun sharma and able to solve most of lesovel 1 & 2 questions but somehow i am weak in some areas like permutations logs inequalities ie i need to strengthen my basics more so should i refer Nishit Sinha for this ??? if not then which other books can clear basics

An ant starts from a point on the botton edge of a circular cylinder and moves in a spiral manner along the curved surface area such that it reaches the top edge in exactly as it completes two circles. Find the distance covered by any f radius is 12/pie and height of cylinder is 20 units.

For any natural number, let K be the index of the highest power of 2 which divides the number. Among the first 100 natural numbers all those numbers for which K is even, are excluded. Find the index of highest power of 2 which divides the product of the remaining numbers.

the no can be of the form of 2^1 , 2^3 and 2^5 as there are 15 prime no b/w 1 to 50 so

for 2^1 no can be 2*1, 2*3, 2*5....................,2*47 ==so in total 15

for 2^3 no can be 8*1, 8*3, 8*5....................,8*11 == so in total 5

for 2^5 no can be 32*1, 32*3 == so total 2

so the product of these no can be divided by

(2^1)^15 * (2^3)^5 * (2^5)^2 == 40


plzz tell me where i m wrong????


Remainder when 123123123...300 digits divided by 909 ?

What happened to this question...didn't get the soln


Find the number of even factors of 2^4 x 3^1x 5^2 x 7^2.

Anu and Prem started running simultaneously from diametrically opposite points on a circular track. They ran in opposite directions and met after 12 minutes for the first time. If the distance between them exactly 't' minutes after they start is equal to a quarter of the length of the track, which of the following is not a possible value of 't'?

42 /78 /90 /144

Some numbers can be expressed as the sum of three of their factors. E.g. 12 can be expressed as the sum of 2, 4 and 6. How many other such numbers are there which are less than 100?

Can someone please explain the process involved in solving the questions below.

1) 2^2 + 22^2 + 222^2 + ..........+ (2222......49twos)^2 is divide by 9 , what is the remainder ?

2) N= 202*20002*200000002*20000000000000002*20000000000........2(31zeroes) . The sum of digits in this multiplication will be.

x=1/29(3−(29*x−1)^1/2013)) what is the sum of the real roots of the equation

1-in how many ways one can put 6 different balls in 3 identical baskets ?
2- a railway track runs parallel to road untill a bend brings the road to a level croasing .
a cyclist travels at a constant speed of 12 miles per hour . he normally meets the train travelling in same direction at crossing . one day he was lae by 25 minutes and met train 6 miles before crossing
calculate speed of train

find the 13th root of 13^13^13

1)13^169
2)13^13^12
3)169^169
4)13^169^2
5)169^13

If N = (13)^(1! + 2! + 3! + ..+ 13!) + (28)^(1! + 2! + 3!..+ 28!) + (32)^(1! + 2! + 3! + ...+ 32!)+ (67)^( 1! + 2! + 3! + ......+ 67!), then the unit digit of N is (a) 4 (b) 8 (c) 2 (d) none of these
