12000
Ans-10000
Substitute R=10
So, A.T.Q:
(1500/x) - (1500/(x+250))=

Q3 train is 20 faster than car.train and car starts from a point and reaches at the
same time to a point 75km away.Train halted for 12.5 mins at stations in between.if train
is 25 faster then how much time will it take to reach the same point.
75/x-75/1.2x=12.5/60
So x=60
75/1.25x= 75

Q.5 How many ordered pairs (a,b,c) exist such that their LCM is 400 repeated 8th nov 9
am,12th Nov, 15th Nov 9am
Let us think from the perspective of each prime. First of all, a,b and c must be factors
of 2^4 and 5^2.
By making a table we will get (x,a,p) = 61 values and (y,b,q)=20 values. What table is
made? Couldnt get
So, we have a total of (61) (20)=1159 cases where LCM (a,b) = 400
Shouldnt it be 3375
Maximum power of 2 in the Number can be 2^4 so, Each Number has 5 choices 2^0,
2^1,2^2, 2^3 and 2^4
Also the Number can have a Maximum Power of 5 as 2 , Each Number has 3 Choices 5^0,
5^1 and 5^2
So each Number can have 5*3 possibilities, Thus the 3 Numbers a, b , c have 15*15*15
possibilities
So it makes it 3375

Q- Q19. Probability of getting prime number sum when 6 dice are rolled
How??
Ans: Is it 8/31???
Min sum is 6(but1 is not a prime number) and Max sum is 36. So, total no. of outcomes
are 31.
Now from 6-36, there are 8 prime no. Hence, the prob. Of getting a prime no. sum should
be
THE above method is incorrect , you need to consider total possible outcome not only the
No It isnt correct. Because when you roll 6 dices there are 6^6 possible outcomes.
Lets reframe the ques as prob of getting sum as prime nos when 2 dices are rolled. THen
how it will
works is as follows :

Consider the 3 as 1 unit. So we are left with 7+1 i.e. 8. They can be arranged in (8-1)!
Ways, i.e.
7!. Now the 3 can be arranged in 3! Ways. Therefor total no. of ways = 7!*3!=3024
Q21. Number of ways you can represent 180 as a sum of consecutive numbers
19
`~~~~~~~~~~n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
method is find (number of odd factors of 180). look for odd factors Ignore factors of 2
and subtract 1 from it . Thus (2+1)(1+1)- 1 = 5
Odd factors will be1 5 3 9 15 and 45.. Out of which only 1 cannot be taken.
Complete Solution:
Factorise the number and find the number of odd factors . Total number of odd factors
(except 1) is the answer.
This example
So Number of odd factors = (2+1)(1+1) - 1 = 6-1 = 5 .Number of ways of writing 180 as sum

over count as we are taking the single box case differently.)
There can be a case when 1 box gets all the box =3C1*1
