Ex. 1. Simplify :   (i) 8888 + 888 + 88 + 8   
                              (ii) 11992 - 7823 - 456  
Sol.   i )  8888                       ii) 11992 - 7823 - 456 = 11992 - (7823 + 456)
                888                                                            = 11992 - 8279 = 3713-

(i) ? - 1936248 = 1635773            (ii) 8597 - ? = 7429 - 4358

Sol.  (i) Let x  - 1936248=1635773.Then, x = 1635773 + 1936248=3572021.                 (ii) Let 8597 - x = 7429 - 4358.
Then, x = (8597 + 4358) - 7429 = 12955 - 7429 = 5526.

 Ex. 3. What could be the maximum value of Q in the following equation?          5P9 + 3R7 + 2Q8 = 1114                     
Sol. We may analyse the given equation as shown :                     1   2     
Clearly, 2 + P + R + Q = ll.                                                           5   P  9
So, the maximum value of Q can be                                                3   R  7
(11 - 2) i.e., 9 (when P = 0, R = 0);                                               2   Q  8
                                                                                                      11  1   4

Ex. 4. Simplify : (i) 5793405 x 9999  (ii) 839478 x 625
Sol.
i)5793405x9999=5793405(10000-1)=57934050000-5793405=57928256595.b

ii) 839478 x 625 = 839478 x 54 = 8394780000 = 524673750.
                                                            16

Ex. 5. Evaluate : (i) 986 x 237 + 986 x 863    (ii) 983 x 207 - 983 x 107

Sol.
(i) 986 x 137 + 986 x 863 = 986 x (137 + 863) = 986 x 1000 = 986000.
(ii) 983 x 207 - 983 x 107 = 983 x (207 - 107) = 983 x 100 = 98300.

Ex. 6. Simplify : (i) 1605 x 1605    ii) 1398 x 1398
Sol.
i) 1605 x 1605 = (1605)2 = (1600 + 5)2 = (1600)2 + (5)2 + 2 x 1600 x 5
                                                               = 2560000 + 25 + 16000 = 2576025.
(ii) 1398 x 1398 - (1398)2 = (1400 - 2)2= (1400)2 + (2)2 - 2 x 1400 x 2
                                                         =1960000 + 4 - 5600 = 1954404.

Ex. 7. Evaluate : (313 x 313 + 287 x 287).
Sol.
 (a2 + b2) = 1/2 [(a + b)2 + (a- b)2]
(313)2 + (287)2 = 1/2 [(313 + 287)2 + (313 - 287)2] = ½[(600)2 + (26)2]
= 1/2 (360000 + 676) = 180338.

Ex. 8. Which of the following are prime numbers ?
(i) 241           (ii) 337         (Hi) 391           (iv) 571
Sol.                             
(i)         Clearly, 16 > Ö241. Prime numbers less than 16 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13.
             241 is not divisible by any one of them.
         241 is a prime number.
                                   
(ii)        Clearly, 19>Ö337. Prime numbers less than 19 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11,13,17.          
             337 is not divisible by any one of them.
          337 is a prime number.
(iii)       Clearly, 20 > Ö39l". Prime numbers less than 20 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19.
           We find that 391 is divisible by 17.
          391 is not prime.
(iv)       Clearly, 24 > Ö57T. Prime numbers less than 24 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23.
            571 is not divisible by any one of them.
         571 is a prime number.


 Ex. 9. Find the unit's digit in the product (2467)163 x (341)72.
Sol. Clearly, unit's digit in the given product = unit's digit in 7153 x 172.                                 
       Now, 74 gives unit digit 1.
       7152  gives unit digit 1,
  \ 7153  gives unit digit (l x 7) = 7. Also, 172 gives unit digit 1.
       Hence, unit's digit in the product = (7 x 1) = 7.


Ex. 10. Find the unit's digit in (264)102 + (264)103
Sol. Required unit's digit = unit's digit in (4)102 + (4)103.
       Now, 42  gives unit digit 6.
   \(4)102 gives unjt digit 6.
   \(4)103 gives unit digit of the product (6 x 4) i.e., 4.
       Hence, unit's digit in (264)m + (264)103 = unit's digit in (6 + 4) = 0.


 Ex. 11. Find the total number of prime factors in the expression (4)11 x (7)5 x (11)2.
Sol. (4)11x (7)5 x (11)2 = (2 x 2)11 x (7)5 x (11)2 = 211 x 211 x75x 112 = 222 x 75 x112
       Total number of prime factors = (22 + 5 + 2) = 29.

Ex.12. Simplify :    (i) 896 x 896 - 204 x 204
                                (ii) 387 x 387 + 114 x 114 + 2 x 387 x 114
                                (iii) 81 X 81 + 68 X 68-2 x 81 X 68.
Sol.
(i)  Given exp  =  (896)2 - (204)2 = (896 + 204) (896 - 204) = 1100 x 692 = 761200.
(ii) Given exp  = (387)2+ (114)2+ (2 x 387x 114)
                        = a2 + b2 + 2ab,  where a = 387,b=114
                        = (a+b)2 = (387 + 114 )2 = (501)2 = 251001.
(iii) Given exp = (81)2 + (68)2 – 2x 81 x 68 = a2 + b2 – 2ab,Where a =81,b=68
                        =  (a-b)2 = (81 –68)2 = (13)2 = 169.


Ex.13. Which of the following numbers is divisible by 3 ?
(i) 541326                                 (ii) 5967013
Sol.
(i) Sum of digits in 541326 = (5 + 4 + 1 + 3 + 2 + 6) = 21, which is divisible by 3.
Hence, 541326 is divisible by 3.

(ii) Sum of digits in 5967013 =(5+9 + 6 + 7 + 0+1 +3) = 31, which is not divisible by 3.
Hence, 5967013 is not divisible by 3.


Ex.14.What least value must be assigned to * so that the number 197*5462 is r 9 ?
Sol.
Let the missing digit be x.
Sum of digits = (1 + 9 + 7 + x + 5 + 4 + 6 +»2) = (34 + x).
For (34 + x) to be divisible by 9, x must be replaced by 2 .
Hence, the digit in place of * must be 2.



Ex. 15. Which of the following numbers is divisible by 4 ?
(i) 67920594                    (ii) 618703572
Sol.     
(i) The number formed by the last two digits in the given number is 94, which is not divisible by 4.
Hence, 67920594 is not divisible by 4.

(ii) The number formed by the last two digits in the given number is 72, which is divisible by 4.
Hence, 618703572 is divisible by 4.





Ex. 16. Which digits should come in place of * and $ if the number 62684*$ is divisible by both 8 and 5 ?
Sol.     
Since the given number is divisible by 5, so 0 or 5 must come in place of $. But, a number ending with 5 is never divisible by 8. So, 0 will replace $.
Now, the number formed by the last three digits is 4*0, which becomes divisible by 8, if * is replaced by 4.
Hence, digits in place of * and $ are 4 and 0 respectively.


Ex. 17. Show that 4832718 is divisible by 11.
Sol.    (Sum of digits at odd places) - (Sum of digits at even places)
                                          = (8 + 7 + 3 + 4) - (1 + 2 + 8) = 11, which is divisible by 11.
            Hence, 4832718 is divisible by 11.


Ex. 18. Is 52563744 divisible by 24 ?
Sol.  24 = 3 x 8, where 3 and 8 are co-primes.           
        The sum of the digits in the given number is 36, which is divisible by 3. So, the                       given number is divisible by 3.
         The number formed by the last 3 digits of the given number is 744, which is  divisible by 8. So, the given number is divisible by 8.
         Thus, the given number is divisible by both 3 and 8, where 3 and 8 are co-primes.
So, it is divisible by 3 x 8, i.e., 24.


Ex. 19. What least number must be added to 3000 to obtain a number exactly divisible by 19 ?
Sol. On dividing 3000 by 19, we get 17 as remainder.
    \Number to be added = (19 - 17) = 2.


Ex. 20. What least number must be subtracted from 2000 to get a number exactly divisible by 17 ?
Sol. On dividing 2000 by 17, we get 11 as remainder.
     \Required number to be subtracted = 11.
