Option 1: 7

Option 2: 8

Option 3: 6

Option 4: 9

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 6


Solution : Given that, On dividing a certain number by 363, we get 17 as the remainder.
Let the number be $363x+17$.
The number = $33x(11)+1(11) + 6$
The number = $11(33x+1) + 6$
So, the remainder when the given number is divided by 11 is 6.

Question : The reciprocals of the squares of the numbers 1$\frac{1}{2}$ and 1$\frac{1}{3}$ are in the ratio:

Option 1: 64 : 81

Option 2: 8 : 9

Option 3: 81 : 64

Option 4: 9 : 85

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 64 : 81


Solution : $1\frac{1}{2} : 1\frac{1}{3}$
$=\frac{3}{2}$ : $\frac{4}{3}$
After squaring the fractions, we get,
⇒ $\frac{9}{4}:\frac{16}{9}$
Their reciprocals are,
⇒ $\frac{4}{9}:\frac{9}{16}$
Multiply each ratio by 144 (LCM of 9 and 16)
$\therefore$ The required ratio = 64 : 81
Hence, the correct answer is 64

Question : The value of $3 \frac{1}{5} \div 4 \frac{1}{2}$ of $5 \frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{8} \div \frac{1}{2}$ of $\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\left(\frac{1}{2} \div \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{1}{4}\right)$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{13}{15}$

Option 2: $\frac{7}{8}$

Option 3: $\frac{3}{4}$

Option 4: $\frac{53}{60}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{53}{60}$


Solution : $3 \frac{1}{5} \div 4 \frac{1}{2}$ of $5 \frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{8} \div \frac{1}{2}$ of $\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\left(\frac{1}{2} \div \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{1}{4}\right)$
= $\frac{16}{5} \div \frac{9}{2}$ of $ \frac{16}{3}+\frac{1}{8}\div \frac{1}{8} -\frac{1}{4} (4×\frac{1}{4})$
= $\frac{16}{5} \div  24 + 1 - \frac{1}{4}$
= $\frac{16}{5} × \frac{1}{24}+ \frac{3}{4}$
= $\frac{2}{15} + \frac{3}{4}$
= $\frac{53}{60}$
