Die die die!
Le solve kar.
A and b can do a work in 7 days. If a does twice as much as work as b in the given time, how long will a take to do the work.

Q-2:Find the solution:
@saurabhlumarrai said:
a)[(2^1/2)-1]^2 a)2*[(2^1/2)-1]^2 a)[[(2^1/2)-1]^2]/2d)None of these
Koi iska bhi jawab bta do...

7/2 days?

21/2

yaar kuch naya topic churu karte hain..time & speed??
Successive Division Method:
Rule-wise the solution is correct, I think. But if 94 is divided by 6 the remainder is 4, NOT 5. Then what's wrong here? (I am just concerned about finding out the number, not the remainders asked in the question).

bhai i am getting [(2^1/2)-1]^4 as the answer

buddy its successive see 94/4 = 23 and remainder is 2 23/6 = 3 and remainder is 5 and now
3/7 = 0 remainder 3

2nd time u dont have to divide 94 by 6 as it is successive it shd be 23/6

it is successive division which means if you take 10. Now when you divide it by 3 you get a remainder 1. Now when you divide it again by 2 you again get a remainder 1. here the logic is you divide the quotient not the number.
A number repeated 6n times is divisible b ATLEAST how many prime numbers???

AND HOW?

aaaaaa...6n times is divisible by how many prime nos?

approach kya lagai....

ans 7,11,13 are the prime numbers it should surely be divisible by
@saurabhlumarrai said:

bohat lenghty approach hai.
@vbhvgupta for the time and work question is it right?? a and b can do work in 7 days...

han
@iLoveTorres - Partly right...
whats your approach btw?

Still more prime no.s it'll be divisible by...
@saurabhlumarrai said:

the answer is b) here's my approach
