The greatest number which always divides the product of the predecessor and successor of an odd natural number other than $1,$ is:
  • A
    $6$
  • $4$
  • C
    $16$
  • D
    $8$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$4$

 Let an odd natural number other than $1$ be $3.$
Then, predecessor of $3 = 3 - 1 = 2$ and successor of $3 = 3 + 1 = 4$
$\therefore$ Their product $ = 2 \times 4 = 8$
$LCM$ of predecessor and successor i.e.
$\begin{array}{c|c}2&2,4\\ \hline2&1,2\\ \hline&1,1\end{array}$
$= 2 \times 2= 4$
Hence, the greatest number which always divides the product of predecessor and successor of an odd natural number other than $1,$ is $4.$

Mark the correct alternative in the following: $2985$ is rounded off to the nearest hundred and the nearest tens. The difference between the two values is:
  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $100$
  • $10$
  • D
    $150$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$10$

In $2985$ the last two digits i.e., $85$ is greater than $50.$
Hence, $1$ will be added to the $3rd$ last digit and the last two digits will become zero.
After rounding to nearest hundred we will get $3000.$
Again, In $2985$ the last digit i.e., $5$ is equal to $5.$
Hence, $1$ will be added to the $2nd$ last digit and the last digit will become zero.
After rounding to nearest ten we will get $2990.$
Required difference $= 3000 - 2990 = 10$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(c).$
