Division Algorithm:

Dividend = the number to be divided.


Divisor = the number by which it is divided. Dividend / Divisor = Quotient. Quotient * Divisor = Dividend. Quotient * Divisor + Remainder = Dividend.

Problems on Numbers
Arithmetic Progression: The nth term of A.P. is given by Tn = a + (n 1)d; Sum of n terms of A.P Sn = n/2 *(a + L) or n/2 *[2a+(n-1)d)]

a = 1st term, n = number of term, d= difference, Tn = nth term Geometrical Progression:

Tn = arn 1.

Sn = a(rn 1)/(r-1); Where a = 1st term ,

r = 1st term / 2nd term

Basic Formulae
1. ( a+b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab 2. (a-b)2 = a2 +b2 -2ab 3. ( a+b)2 - (a b)2 = 4ab 4. (a+b)2 + (a b)2 = 2 (a2 +b2) 5. (a2 b2) = (a+b) (a-b) 6. (a+b+c)2 =a2 +b2 +c2 + 2(ab +bc+ca) 7. (a3 +b3) = ( a+b) (a2 +ab +b2) 8. (a3 b3) = (a-b) (a2 - ab + b2)

Simple/Compound interest
If Rs. 85 amounts to Rs. 95 in 3 years, what Rs. 102 will amount in 5 years at the same rate percent?

Simple/Compound interest
Solution:
Let P = Rs. 85; A = Rs. 95; I = 10/3 in 1 year Rate = I*100/P*N =4% ( app) Amount = P+PNR/100 = 102+20 =122 Hence the amount in 5 years = Rs. 122

Simple/Compound interest
What will be the difference between S.I and C.I on a sum of Rs. 4500 put for 2 years at 5% per annum?

Simple/Compound interest
What will be the C.I on Rs. 15625 for 2 years at 4% per annum?

Simple/Compound interest
Solution: A = P(1+R/100)n A = 15625 [(1+4/100)2 ( 1+(4*1/2) / 100)] = 17238 C.I = A P C.I = 17238 - 15625 Compound interest = Rs. 1613

Venn Diagram
If X and Y are two sets such that X u Y has 18
elements, X has 8 elements, and Y has 15 elements, how many element does X n Y have?

Venn Diagram
Solution: We are given n (X uY) = 18, n (X) = 8, n (Y) =15. using the formula. n( X n Y) = n (X) + n (Y) - n ( X u Y) n( X n Y) = 8 + 15 18 n( X n Y) = 5

Venn Diagram
If S and T are two sets such that S has 21elemnets, T
has 32 elements, and S n T has 11 elements, how many element elements does S u T have?

Venn Diagram
Answer: n (s) = 21, n (T) = 32, n ( S n T) = 11, n (S u T) = ? n (S u T) = n (S) + n( T) n (S n T) = 21 + 32 11 = 42

Venn Diagram
If A and B are two sets such that A has 40 elements, A
u B has 60 elements and A n B has 10 elements, how many element elements does B have?

Venn Diagram
Answer: n ( A) = 40, n ( n B) = 60 and n ( A n B) = 10, n ( A u B) = n ( A) + n (B) n ( A n B) 60 = 40 + n (B) 10 n (B) = 30

Venn Diagram
In a group of 1000 people, there are 750 people who
can speak Hindi and 400 who can speak English. How many can Speak Hindi only?

Answer: n( H u E) = 1000, n (H) = 750, n (E) = 400, n( H u E) = n (H) + n (E) n( H n E) 1000 = 750 +400 n ( H n E) n ( H n E) = 1150 100 = 150 No. of people can speak Hindi only _ = n ( H n E) = n ( H) n( H n E) = 750 150 = 600

Venn Diagram
In a class of 100 students, the number of students passed in English only is 46, in maths only is 46, in commerce only is 58. the number who passes in English and Maths is 16, Maths and commerce is 24 and English and commerce is 26, and the number who passed in all the subject is 7. find the number of the students who failed in all the subjects.

Venn Diagram
Solution: No. of students who passed in one or more subjects = 11+ 9 + 13 + 17 + 15 + 19 + 7 = 91 No of students who failed in all the subjects = 100 -91 = 9
