Option 1: 750

Option 2: 720

Option 3: 800

Option 4: 700

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 720


Solution : Let the marked price (MP) of the article be Rs. $x$.
Selling Price = Marked Price × $\frac{100 - D}{100}$, where D is discount percentage.
⇒ $816 = x\times \frac{(100 -15)}{100}$
⇒ $816 = 0.85x$
⇒ $x= \frac{816}{0.85}$
⇒ $x=$ Rs. 960
According to the

Question : The least number that must be subtracted from 1294 such that the obtained number when divided by 9, 11, and 13, leaves in each case the same remainder of 6, is:

Option 1: 2

Option 2: 3

Option 3: 1

Option 4: 4

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution : The LCM of 9, 11, and 13 is 1287.
When 1294 is divided by 1287, the quotient is 1 and the remainder is 7.
Here, we need the remainder in each case to be 6 and so, subtract (7 – 6) = 1 from 1294.

Question : Which of the following given value is greater than $\sqrt[3]{12}$?

Option 1: $\sqrt[6]{121}$

Option 2: $\sqrt[12]{33214}$

Option 3: $\sqrt[5]{60}$

Option 4: $\sqrt[9]{1500}$

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\sqrt[12]{33214}$


Solution : Given number: $\sqrt[3]{12}$ $\sqrt[6]{121}$, $\sqrt[12]{33214}$ , $\sqrt[5]{60}$, $\sqrt[9]{1500}$
 Now $\sqrt[6]{121}=\sqrt[6]{11^2}=\sqrt[3]{11}<\sqrt[3]{12}$
Also, $144>125$
⇒ $125 × 12^3<144 × 12^3$
⇒ $(5×12)^3<12^5$
⇒ $(60)^3<12^5$
⇒ $\sqrt[5]{60}<\sqrt[3]{12}$
Again, $1500<1728$
⇒ $(1500)^\frac{1}{9}<(1728)^\frac{1}{9}$
⇒ $\sqrt[9]{1500}<\sqrt[3]{12}$
Also, $33214>20736$
⇒ $(33214)^\frac{1}{12}>(20736)^\frac{1}{12}$
⇒ $\sqrt[12]{33214}>\sqrt[3]{12}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\sqrt[12]{33214}$.
