Q Find the greatest value of x, if 58! is divisible by 10x.
Ans For a number to be multiple of 10, we need 2 and 5.
Number of zeroes in a factorial = floor(x/5) + floor(x/25)+...
Since the number is less than 125, which is next power of 5.
Number of 0s in 58! = floor(58/5) +floor(58/25) = 11 + 2 =13

Q Reduction in machinery
The total price of the machines of a company has gone up by 25%. Cost to install them has also increased from 25% of the cost of total machines to 35% of the cost of total machines.
In order to keep the cost same, what should be the percentage reduction in number of machines. Please select the most suitable range in which the calculated percentage lies.
Ans Solution Description
#### Let the initial cost of machines be 100. So, initial cost to install was 25 and net cost was 125
#### Now, 25% increment in cost of machines
#### Machine cost = 125 And
#### cost to install has gone up to 35% from 25 %
#### cost to install = (125 × 35%) = 43.75
#### So, New net cost,
#### = 125 + 43.75 = 168.75
#### Difference of cost = 168.75 - 125 = 43.75
#### % reduction = 43.75×100/168.75
#### = 25.92%(approx.)

Q Paint the cube
The Money required to paint a cube of volume V is x Rs. We have another cube with volume 27V. How much money do we need to paint this new cube?
Ans Solution Description
(length)^3 = 27V
length = 3 * cube root (V)
a1/a2 = (L1/L2)^2
a1/a2 = {[cuberoot(V)]/[3*cuberoot(V)]}^2
=(1/3)^2
=1/9

Q Right Angle in clock
At what time between 2 pm to 3 pm is the first right angle formed by hands of the clock.
Ans Solution Description
Let the time be 2 hr x minutes.
Angle of minute hand= 6x
Angle of hr hand = 60+x/2
(hour hand moves 1/2 degree for each minute)
6x - (60+x/2) = 90
11x/2 = 150
x= 300/11
300/11 minutes = 5/11 hr
5/11 hours past 2 o'clock

Q. If an amount becomes 3 times in 5 years then in how many years it would be 9 times through Compounded interest and Simple interest respectively.
For compound interest,
A = (1+r)^t
For the amount to be squared, time needs to be doubled.
That is in 10 years.
For simple interest:
3P= P(1+R5)
R =2/5
9P=P(1+3/5*T)
45 = 5+ 2T
T = 20

1.A shopkeeper selling lamps mark up the price of the lamps by 10%. After marking up the price, he sells the lamps at a discount but he suffers an overall loss of 1% after giving the discount. Find the discount percent that the shopkeeper offered.
Let CP=100
MP=110
Loss=1%
SP=100 - 0.01*100= 99
MP-discount=SP
110 - discount =99
discount =11
Discount %= 11/110 *100 =10%
