Find the smallest positive integer such that when its leftmost digit is removed, the resulting number becomes 1/57th of original number.

As discussed above the number cannot be 3 digit
1000a+100b+10c+d /57 = 100a+10b+c
1000a =5600b+560c+56d
250a=1400b+140c+14d
b=1 => 140c +14d should be multiple of 350,600,850 [LHS is multiple of 250]
this can be achived by putting c=2 and d=5 lowest => a=7
so 7125

find the remainder in the following a.3^1001/21 b.25^91/15sorry i dnt have options for any these. help, please
a. 12
3^1001/21=3(3^1000 mod 7)
3(3^4 mod 7)=12
b. 10

Bhai chk out the figure ....since the arc is at a height of 21 from center so radius of arc is 21...and so the length 42

What is height of an arc ???
A number x is selected from first 100 natural numbers. Find the probability that x satisfy the condition x + 100/x > 50.
