Option 1: 60
Option 2: 20
Option 3: 15
Option 4: 30
Correct Answer: 60
Solution : Let the number of students in the class as $n$. The total increase in marks due to the mistake is 93 – 63 = 30 marks This increase caused the average marks to increase by 0.5 marks. Average = $\frac{\text{Sum of all the observations}}{{\text{Total number

Question : If $N=\frac{(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)}{(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)}$, then what is the value of $(N+\frac{1}{N})$?
Option 1: $2\sqrt2$
Option 2: $5$
Option 3: $10$
Option 4: $13$
Correct Answer: $5$
Solution : $N=\frac{(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)}{(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)}$, then what is the value of $N+(\frac{1}{N})$ $\frac{1}{N}=\frac{(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)}{(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)}$ To find: $N+(\frac{1}{N})$ Putting the values, we get: $\frac{(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)}{(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)}+\frac{(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)}{(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)}$ = $\frac{(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)^2+(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)^2}{(\sqrt7+\sqrt3)(\sqrt7-\sqrt3)}$ = $\frac{(7+3-2\sqrt7\sqrt3)+(7+3+2\sqrt7\sqrt3)}{(7-3)}$ = $\frac{20}{4}$ = 5 Hence, the correct answer is $5$.
Question : The value of $9\times [(9 - 4) \div{\{(8 \div 8\ \text{of}\ 4) +(4 \div 4 \ \text{of}\ 2)}\}]$ is:
Option 1: $20$
Option 2: $60$
Option 3: $\frac{15}{4}$
Option 4: $\frac{15}{2}$
Correct Answer: $60$
Solution : Given: The expression is $9\times [(9 - 4) \div {\{(8 \div 8\ \text{of}\ 4) +(4 \div 4 \ \text{of}\ 2)}\}]$ $=9\times [(9 - 4) \div {\{(8 \div 32) +(4 \div 8)}\}]$ $=9\times [5 \div (\frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{2})]$ $=9\times [5 \div \frac{3}{4}]$ $=9\times [5\times \frac{4}{3}]=9\times \frac{20}{3}=60$ Hence,
Question : If the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is 29 cm and the sum of the other two sides is 41 cm, then the difference between the other two sides is:
Option 1: 5 cm
Option 2: 1 cm
Option 3: 2 cm
Option 4: 10 cm
Correct Answer: 1 cm
Solution : Let $a$ and $b$ be the two sides other than the hypotenuse. Use the Pythagoras theorem: Hypotenuse2 = Base2 + Perpendicular2 According to the question, $(29)^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2}$ ⇒ 841 = $a^{2} + b^{2}$ Also, $a + b$ =
Question : A godown is 15 m long and 12 m broad. The sum of the area of the floor and the ceiling is equal to the sum of the area of the four walls. The volume (in m3) of the godown is:

Option 2: 1200
Option 3: 1800
Option 4: 720
Correct Answer: 1200
Solution : Given: A godown is 15 m long and 12 m broad. The sum of the area of the floor and the ceiling is equal to the sum of the four walls. Let the height of the hall be H. The area of floor = sum
