please help me with the solution ...

q. what is the sum of factors of 18000 which are divisible by 8 but not by 25?


is it 1872???


Pg 158 Q.44.

A salesman is appointed with a basic salary of 1200/month and the condition that for every sales of 10000 and above he will get 50% of basic and 10% of sales. this scheme does not operate for first 10000 of sales. what would be the value of sales if he wants to earn 7600 in a particular month?



Let x*10000+10000 be the total sales.

Now 1000 x+ 600 * x= 7600-1200 = 6400
=> 1600 x = 6400
=> x = 4
Hence sale should be 10000*4 + 10000 = 50000

Is this correct?

Pg 158 Q42

Aus scored X runs in 50 overs. india tied the score in 10% less overs. if indias avg run rate had been 33.33% higher the scores would have been tied 10 overs earlier. find how many runs were scored by australia.

A.250
B.240
C.200
D. Cannot be determined.

My Sol. I started solving the sum through options.

Aus----240----50overs----4.8
Ind-----240----40overs----6
ind-----240---30overs-----8 (6*4/3)
hence all conditions are fullfilled
Apparently as per the book the ans cannot be determined which i couldnt understand why??

Thanks.


Shouldnt India take 45 overs if it needs to score in 10% less overs?

sorry that was a typo it was "india tied the score in 20% less overs"
The answer to Q44 was Rs.50000
although i still didnt understand the solution to the aust-ind sum.


Thanks a lot for the help puys

Two planes moving along a circle of circumference 1.2 km with constant speed.When they move in diffrent direction they meet every 15 secs and when they move in same direction one place overtakes the the other every 60 secs.Find teh speed of slower plane

please help me with the solution

please help me with the solution


Here..Let Speed of planes be a,b..both in m/s
Now...
(a+b)*15 = 1200..(1)
a+b = 80
Also
a*60 = 1200 + b*60
a-b = 20
So a = 50, b = 30 m/s
Answer = 30 m/s

can anyone give a detailed solution for Q53.in LOD III chap. number system.

Thanks man.. i wasted a lot of time taking 1.2 Km as radius :splat:

hi puys... I've a prob from mensuration, plz help...(pg 342 prob 7)

A cylinder and a cone having equal diameter of their bases are placed in the Quatab Minar one on the other, with the cylinder on the bottom. If their curved surface area are in the ratio of 8:5, find the ratio of their heights. Assume the height of the cylinder to be equal to the radius of Quatab Minar.(assume Quatab Minar to be having uniform radius throughout).
(a)1:4
(b)3:4
(c)4:3
(d)2:3
(e)3:2

n ya thr is one more... (pg 342 prob 4)

The sides of a triangle are 21cm, 20cm and 13 cm.find the area of the larger triangle into which the given triangle is divided by the perpendicular upon the longest side from the opposite vertex.
(a)72 sq. cm
(b)96 sq cm
(c)168 sq cm
(d)144 sq cm
(e)150 sq cm

its 96....
see its the basic use of triplates...the perpendicular drawn will be 12 cms...rest u can derive using pythagoras theorem...

is the answer 3:4

yes it is... wil u explain if u dont mind???:-P

2*pi*r*h/pi*r*l=8/5 (given )

r = h (given for cylinder)
therefore

r/l=8/10

now hight of cone= sqrt((10/8*r)^2-r^2))
=6/8r=3/4r

ratio of hieghts = 3/4
