Question : The digit in the unit's place of the product 49237 × 3995 × 738 × 83 × 9 is:

Option 1: 0

Option 2: 7

Option 3: 5

Option 4: 6

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 0


Solution : The product of unit digits of the 2nd and 3rd numbers is (5 × 8) = 40.
The unit digit of this product is 0.
So, the digit in the unit's place of the product of 49237 × 3995 × 738 × 83 × 9

Question : The lengths of the two sides of a triangle are 14 cm and 9 cm. Which of the options below can be the length of the third side?

Option 1: 17 cm

Option 2: 23 cm

Option 3: 24 cm

Option 4: 5 cm

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 17 cm


Solution : We know that the sum of the length of either two sides of a triangle must be more than the third side.
So, the third side < (14 + 9)
Or, the third side < 23
Also, the difference in lengths of any two

Question : If the angles $P, Q$ and $R$ of $\triangle PQR$ satisfy the relation $2 \angle R-\angle P=\angle Q-\angle R$, then find the measure of $\angle R$.

Option 1: $45^{\circ}$

Option 2: $60^{\circ}$

Option 3: $50^{\circ}$

Option 4: $55^0$

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $45^{\circ}$


Solution : We know that the sum of the angles of a triangle = $180^{\circ}$
Let $\angle R = x$
Given: $2 \angle R-\angle P=\angle Q-\angle R$
⇒ $2x - \angle P = \angle Q -x$
⇒ $3x = \angle Q+\angle P$
Now, $\angle R + \angle

Question : If the sum of three consecutive composite numbers is 36, then what is the product of the three numbers?

Option 1: 1460

Option 2: 1750

Option 3: 1680

Option 4: 1820

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1680


Solution : Two consecutive numbers have a maximum difference of 2.
So, the composite numbers that satisfy the given condition are 10, 12, and 14.
The product of these three numbers = 10 × 12 × 14 = 1680
Hence, the correct answer is 1680.

Question : If the price of an apple is reduced by 30 percent, it enables the customer to buy 5 more apples for Rs. 140. Find the reduced rate of apple.

Option 1: Rs. 14

Option 2: Rs. 7

Option 3: Rs. 8.4

Option 4: Rs. 12

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 8.4


Solution : Let the original price of an apple be $10x$.
The new price will be reduced by 30% $= 7x$
Now, according to the question,
$\frac{140}{7x}-\frac{140}{10x}=5$
⇒ $\frac{420}{70x}=5$
⇒ $\frac{6}{x}=5$
⇒ $x = 1.2$
The new price of apple $= 7x=7\times1.2=8.4$
Hence, the correct answer
