Question : A number increased by $22\frac{1}{2}$% gives 98. The number is:

Option 1: 45

Option 2: 18

Option 3: 80

Option 4: 81

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 80


Solution : Given: A number increased by $22\frac{1}{2}$% gives 98.
Let the number be 100.
If we increase it by $22\frac{1}{2}$% we get = $(100+100×\frac{22.5}{100})=122.5$
Here, 122.5 is equivalent to 98
So, 100 is equivalent to $(\frac{98×100}{122.5})=\frac{98×100×10}{1225}=80$
Hence, the correct answer is 80.

Question : If $x+\frac{1}{x}=7$, find the value of $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}$.

Option 1: 343

Option 2: 322

Option 3: 340

Option 4: 332

Team Careers360 13th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 322


Solution : $x+\frac{1}{x}=7$
Squaring on both sides,
⇒ $(x+\frac{1}{x})^2=7^2$
⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}+2=49$
⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}=47$
Now, $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3} = (x+\frac{1}{x})(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}-(x×\frac{1}{x}))$
= 7 × (47 – 1)
= 322
Hence, the correct answer is 322.
