For some integer q, every odd integer is of the form:
  • A
    q
  • B
    q + 1
  • C
    2q
  • 2q + 1
Answer
Correct option: D.
2q + 1
We know that, all numbers that are not the multiple of 2 are odd numbers.
Odd integers are ..., -3, -1, 1, 3, 5,...
So, odd numbers can be written as 2m + 1, where m is an integer.
m can be ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2,...
$\therefore$ 2m + 1 can be ..., -3, -1, 1, 3,...
Hence, the correct answer is option D.

  • A
    $2$
  • $3$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
    $7$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$3$
Since, it is given that
$n=2^3 \times 3^4 \times 5^4 \times 7$
$=2^3 \times 5^4 \times 3^4 \times 7$
$=2^3 \times 5^3 \times 5 \times 3^4 \times 7$
$=(2 \times 5)^3 \times 5 \times 3^4 \times 7$
$=5 \times 3^4 \times 7 \times(10)^3$
So, this means the given number n will end with $3$ consecutive zeroes.

MCQ 91 Mark
If $p$ and $q$ are co$-$prime numbers, then $p^2$ and $q^2$ are:
  • Co$-$prime.
  • B
    Not co$-$prime.
  • C
    Even.
     
  • D
    Odd.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Co$-$prime.

We know that the co$-$prime numbers have no factor in common, or, their $\text{HCF}$ is $1.$
Thus, $p^2$ and $q^2$ have the same factors with twice of the exponents of $p$ and $q$ respectively, which again will not have any common factor.
Thus we can conclude that $p ^2$ and $q ^2$ are co$-$prime numbers.
Hence, the correct choice is $(a).$

If the LCM of a and 18 is 36 and the HCF of a and 18 is 2, then a =
  • A
    2
  • B
    3
  • 4
  • D
    1
Answer
Correct option: C.
4
LCM (a, 18) = 36
HCF (a, 18) = 2
We know that the product of numbers is equal to the product of their HCF and LCM.
Therefore,
18a = 2(36)
$\text{a}=\frac{2(36)}{18}$
a = 4
Hence the correct choice is (c).

The remainder when the square of any prime number greater than 3 is divided by 6, is:
  • 1
  • B
    3
  • C
    2
  • D
    4
Answer
Correct option: A.
1
$\because$ The given prime number is greater than 3
Let the prime number be $=6\text{k}\pm1$
When k is a natural number
$\therefore\ (6\text{k}\pm1)^2=36\text{k}^2\pm12\text{k}+1$
$=6\text{k}(6\text{k}\pm2)+1$

MCQ 151 Mark
The largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 and 8, respectively, is:
  • 13
  • B
    65
  • C
    875
  • D
    1750
Answer
Correct option: A.
13
Since, 5 and 8 are the remainders of 70 and 125, respectively.
Thus, after subtracting these remainders from the numbers, we have the numbers 65 = (70 - 5), 117 = (125 - 8), which is divisible by the required number.
Now, required number = HCF of 65, 117
[For the largest number]
For this, 117 = 65 × 1 + 52 [Dividend = divisor × quotient + remainder]
⇒ 65 = 52 × 1 + 13
⇒ 52 = 13 × 4 + 0
HCF = 13
Hence, 13 is the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 and 8.

If the sum of LCM and HCF of two numbers is 1260 and their LCM is 900 more than their HCF, then the product of two numbers is:
  • A
    203400
  • 194400
  • C
    198400
  • D
    205400
Answer
Correct option: B.
194400
Given that sum of LCM and HCF = 1260
LCM + HCF = 1260 .....(1)
Let two numbers be a and b and HCF (a, b) = x
According to question:
Put value of HCF and LCM in equation (1)
⇒ 900 + x + x = 1260
⇒ 2x = 1260 - 900
⇒ 2x = 360
$\Rightarrow\ \text{x}=\frac{360}{2}$
⇒ x = 180 ......(2)
Now, LCM × HCF = Product of two numbers
Product of two number = (x + 900)(x)
= (180 + 900)(180)
= 1080 × 180
= 194400

If $p_1$ and $p_2$ are two odd prime numbers such that $p_1>p_2$, then $p_1^2-p_2^2$ is:
  • An even number.
  • B
    An odd number.
  • C
    An odd prime number.
  • D
    A prime number.
Answer
Correct option: A.
An even number.

Let the two odd prime numbers $p_1$ and $p_2$ be $5$ and $3 .$
Then,
$\text{p}^2_1=5^2$
$=25$
And
$\text{p}^2_2=3^2$
$=9$
Thus,
$\text{p}^2_1-\text{p}^2_2=25-9$
$=16$
16 is even number.
Take another example, with $p_1$ and $p_2$ be $11$ and $7 .$
Then,
$\text{p}^2_1=11^2$
$=121$
And
$\text{p}^2_2=7^2$
$=49$
Thus,
$\text{p}^2_1-\text{p}^2_2=121-49$
$=72$
72 is even number.
Thus, we can say that $\text{p}^2_1-\text{p}^2_2$ is even number
In general the square of odd prime number is odd. Hence the difference of square of two prime numbers is odd
Hence the correct choice is $(a).$

$n^2 - 1$ is divisible by $8$, if $n$ is:
  • A
    An integer.
  • B
    A natural number.
  • An odd integer.
  • D
    An even integer.
Answer
Correct option: C.
An odd integer.
Let a $= n^2 - 1$
Here $n$ can be even or odd.
Case $I: n =$ Even i.e., $n = 2k$, where $k$ is an integer.
$\Rightarrow a=(2 k)^2-1$
$\Rightarrow a=4 k^2-1$
At $k=-1,4(-1)^2-1=4-1=3$, which is not divisible by $8 .$
At $k=0, a=4(0)^2-1=0-1=-1$, which is not divisible by $8$ , which is not.
Case II: $n =$ Odd i.e., $n =2 k +1$, where $k$ is an odd integer.
$\Rightarrow a=2 k+1$
$\Rightarrow a=(2 k+1)^2-1$
$\Rightarrow a=4 k^2+4 k+1-1$
$\Rightarrow a=4 k^2+4 k$
$\Rightarrow a=4 k(k+1)$
At $k=-1, a=4(-1)(-1+1)=0$ which is divisible by $8 $.
At $k=0, a=4(0)(0+1)=4$ which is divisible by $8.$
At $k=1, a=4(1)(1+1)=8$ which is divisible by $8.$
Hence, we can conclude from above two cases, if $n$ is odd, then $n^2-1$ is divisible by $8 .$

  • B
    a natural number
  • an odd integer
  • D
    an even integer
Answer
Correct option: C.
an odd integer
(C) an odd integer
If $n$ is an even integer, then so is $n^2$ and hence $n^2-1$ is an odd integer. Consequently, $n^2-1$ cannot be divisible by 8 , if $n$ is an even integer. So, let $n$ be an odd integer. Then, $n=2 m+1$ for some integer $m$.
$
\therefore \quad n^2-1=(2 m+1)^2-1=4 m^2+4 m=4 m(m+1)
$
For any natural number $m, m(m+1)$ is an even natural number. Let $m=2 k$, where $k$ is a natural number.
$\therefore \quad n^2-1=8 k(2 k+1)$, which is divisible by 8 .
Hence, $n$ is an odd integer.

If $a=2^7 \times 3^{10}$ and $b=2^3 \times 3^7$, then $\operatorname{HCF}(a, b)$ is
  • A
    $2^3 \times 3^{10}$
  • B
    $2^{10} \times 3^{17}$
  • $2^3 \times 3^7$
  • D
    $2^7 \times 3^7$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$2^3 \times 3^7$
(C) $2^3 \times 3^7$
HCF $(a, b)=\operatorname{HCF}\left(2^7 \times 3^{10}, 2^3 \times 3^7\right)=2^3 \times 3^7$

Given that $\operatorname{HCF}(2520,6600)=120$ and $\operatorname{LCM}(2520,6600)=252 \times k$, then the value of $k$ is
  • 550
  • B
    1600
  • C
    165
  • D
    1625
Answer
Correct option: A.
550
(A) 550
We know that: $\operatorname{HCF}(a, b) \times \operatorname{LCM}(a, b)=a \times b$
$
\therefore \quad 120 \times 252 \times k=2520 \times 6600 \Rightarrow k=10 \times 55=550
