Sol : Option C
Explanation: We have 17.32% of 190 - 3&redic;26.881 = ?
⇒ 17% of 190 - 3&redic;
⇒ ? = (20% - 3%) of 190 – 3= 38 – 5.7 – 3 = 29.3. Hence the answer is Option C
Q3. The cube root of 0.000216 is:
A. 0.6
B. 0.06
C. 0.77
D. 0.87
Sol : Option B
Explanation: (0.000216)1/3 = (0.06 × 0.06 × 0.06)1/3 = [(0.06)3]1/3 = 0.06
Q4. Find the least number by which 750 should be multiplied, so that it becomes a perfect cube.
A. 12
B. 24
C. 36
D. 48
Sol : Option C
Explanation:
Prime factorization of 750= (2 * 3 * 5 * 5 * 5)
To make it perfect cube we should multiply with (2 * 2) * (3 * 3) = 36.
5. The value of &redic;0.64 + &redic;1.44 + &redic;0.0009 is:
A. 2.03
B. 2.1
C. 2.11
D. 2.13
Sol : Option A
Explanation: Given exp. = &redic;64/100 + &redic;144/100 + &redic;9/10000 = 8/10 + 12/10 + 3/100
= 0.8 + 1.2 + 0.03 = 2.03
Q.6. Which is the smallest number, with which 600 should be multiplied so that it becomes a perfect square?
A. 2
B. 3
C. 3.5
D. 6
Sol : Option D
Explanation: 600= 5 * 5 * 3 * 2 * 2 * 2, to make it perfect square it should be multiplied by 3 * 2 = 6.
Q.7. In a class each of the students contributed as many paisa as there are number of students. If the total collection was Rs. 169, what was the number of students in the class?
A. 113
B. 112
C. 130
D. 120
Sol : Option C
Explanation: Let number of students be y. They all contributed y paisa each.
So, y * y = 16900 paisa. Hence y = 130.
Q8. A person wants to arrange his colleagues in the form of a perfect square, but he finds there are 9 persons too many. What will be the total number of persons in front row, if the total number of persons with him is 2410?
A. 41
B. 47
C. 48
D. 49
Sol : Option D
