    The numbers from 101 to 150 are written as,

    101102103104105…146147148149150. What will be the remainder when this total


    number is divided by 3?
    Answer: 2
    Solution:
    The divisibility rule for 3 is that the sum of all digits of a number should be divisible
    by 3. Let’s calculate the sum of the digits:
    There are 50 1’s (unit place) = 50
    There are 10 1’s (tens place) = 10
    There are 10 2’s (tens place) = 20
    There are 10 3’s (tens place) = 30
    There are 10 4’s (tens place) = 40
    There is one 5 (tens place) = 5
    For each number 1 to 9, there are 5 sets of sum 45(1+2+…+9) = 225
    => So sum of all digits = 380
    => 380 / 3 = 2 (Answer)
    If the alphabets are written in the sequence of a, bb, ccc, dddd, eeeee, ffffff, …. What
    will be the 120th letter?
    Answer: O
    Solution:
    It can be seen that the letter are in AP sequence, So applying the formula we get,

    We find that n = 15 fits the equation


    The 15th letter in the English alphabet = O
    So 15th term contains O.
    There is a tank whose 1/7 th part is filled with fuel. If 22 liters of fuel is poured into
    the tank, the indicator rises to 1/5 th mark of the tank. So what is the total capacity of
    the tank?
    Answer: 385
    Solution:
    Let the total capacity of the tank be ‘x’ liters.
    According to the question,
    => x/7 + 22 = x/5
    => x/5 – x/7 = 22
    => x = 385 litres(Answer)

    Find the number of perfect squares in the given series 2013, 2020, 2027,
    ……………., 2300? (Hint 44^2=1936)
    a) 2
    b) 1
    c) 3
    d) None of the above
    Answer: b) 1
    Solution:
    We can see that the series is in the form of AP with common difference of 7.
    So the series is in the form of 2013 + 7d
    The hint is actually a shortcut:
    44^2 = 1936
    45^2 = 2025
    46^2 = 2116
    47^2 = 2209
    48^2 = 2304
    Therefore among these numbers, we need to find which of them are in the form of 2013 + 7d
    Only one number 2209 can be written in the form 2013 + 7*28.
    Therefore the answer is 1.
    Find the number of divisors of 1728(including 1 and the number itself).
    Answer: 28
    Solution:
    There is a direct formula for this:

    where p, q and r are prime numbers. Simply we need to prime factorize the Number.
    Then, (a+1).(b+1).(c+1) is the number of divisors.
    For 1728 =
    Therfore, (6+1).(3+1) = 28
    In the series of 7^1+7^2+7^3+7^4…….+7^204+7^205, how many numbers are there
    with the unit place as 3?
    Answer: 51
    Solution: According to the cyclicity of 7, the unit digit follows the pattern of 7, 9, 3, 1
    and this repeats. So in every 4 numbers, we get one 3 in the unit place. Dividing 205
    by 4 we get 51 which is the answer to the following question.
    A flight takes off at 2 a.m. from a place at 18N 10E and landed at 36N 70W, 10 hours
    later. What is the local time of the destination?
    a) 6:00 a.m.
    b) 6:40 a.m.
    c) 7:40 a.m.
    d) 7:00 a.m.
    e) 8:00 a.m.
    Answer: b) 6:40 a.m
    Solution:
    Let’ calculate the difference in the number of latitudes = 70 + 10 = 80 degrees
    towards east.
    We know 1 degree = 4 min, so 80 degrees = 80 * 4 = 320 mins
    320 mins = 5 hr 20 minutes
    Now the plane landed 10 hours later so time of landing = 12 hrs
    So time at destination = 12 hrs – 5 hrs 20 min = 6 hr 40 mins(Answer)
    An athletic run at 9 km/hr along a railway track. The track is 240m long and ahead of
    a train 120m long running at 45km/hr, in the same direction. how much time will the
    train take to completely cross the athlete?
    a) 3.6 sec
    b) 18 sec
    c) 72 sec
    d) 36 sec
    Answer: d) 36 sec
    Solution:
    Let’s try to find the relative speed = 45 – 9 = 36km/hr
    = 36 * 5/18 = 10m/s
    Now the total distance needed to be covered by the train to completely cross the
    athlete = 240 + 120 = 360m
    So time = dist/speed = 360/10 = 36 seconds
    A takes 3 days to complete a work while B takes 2 days. Both of them finish a work
    and earn Rs. 150. What is A’s share of money?
    a) Rs. 70
    b) Rs. 30
    c) Rs. 60
    d) Rs. 75
    Answer: c) 60
    Solution:
    A completes 1/3rd of work in one-day and B completes 1/2 of work in one day. So
    the ratio of there work is:
    A:B = 2:3
    So A’s share = (2/5)*150 = 60 rupees(Answer)
