Q10. A number when divided by 5 leaves a remainder 3. What is the remainder when the square of the same number is divided by 5?

(a) 9

(b) 3

(c) 0

(d) 4

Answer: (d)

Explanation:  Let the number be 5q + 3, where q is quotient

Now, (5q + 3)2 = 25q2 + 30q  + 9  = 25q2 + 30q + 5 + 4 = 5[5q2 + 6q + 1] + 4

Hence, remainder is 4

Q11. A number when successively divided by 7 and 8 leaves the remainders 3 and 5 respectively. What is the remainder when the same number is divided by 56?

(a) 38

(b) 31

(c) 37

(d) 26

Answer: (a)

Explanation:  56 = d1 × d2

∴ required remainder = d1 r2 + r1,

where d1 = 7 and r 1 = 3 and r2 = 5.

i.e. 7 × 5 + 3 = 38

Q12. The four integers next lower than a number, and the four next higher than that number, are written down and added together, this sum is divisible by,

(a) 4

(b) 5

(c) 7

(d) 9

Answer: (a)

Explanation: Let the number = x.

Four integers next lower than x are (x–1), (x–2), (x–3), (x–4) four integers next higher than x are (x+1), (x+2), (x+3), (x+4),

Sum = (x–1) + (x–2) + (x–3) + (x–4) + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) = 8x

Sum is divisible by 8, 4
