    Section : A
  • Qstn #1
    Write quotient when the sum of 73 and 37 is divided by
    Ans : Sum of 73 and 37 b is to be divided by
  • #1-i
    11
    Ans : 11
  • #1-ii
    10
    Ans : 10
    Let ab = 73
    and ba = 37
    ∴ a = 7
    and b = 3
    (i) The quotient of ab + bc i.e (73 + 37) when divided by 11 is a + b = 7 + 3 = 10

    (ii) The quotient of ab + ba i.e. (73 + 37) when divided by 10 (i.e. a + b ) is 11
  • Qstn #2
    Write the quotient when the sum of 94 and 49 is divide by
    Ans : Sum of 84 and 49 is to be divide by
  • #2-i
    11
    Ans : 11
  • #2-ii
    13
    Ans : 13
    Let ab = 94
    and ba = 49
    ∴ a = 9 and b = 4
    (i) The quotient of 94 + 49 (i.e 9 + 4 = 13

    (ii) The quotient of 94 + 49 (i.e. ab + ba)
    When divided by 13 i.e. (a + b) is 11
  • Qstn #3
    Find the quotient when 73 - 37 is divide by
    Ans : Difference of 73 - 37 is to be divided by
  • #3-i
    9
    Ans : 9
  • #3-ii
    4
    Ans : 4
    Let ab = 73 and ba = 37
    ∴ a = 7 and b = 3
    (i) The quotient of 73 - 37 (i.e. ab - bc) when divided by 7 is a - b i.e. 7 - 3 = 4

    (ii) The quotient of 73 - 37 (i.e. ab - ba) when divided by 4 i.e. (a - b) is 9
  • Qstn #4
    Find the quotient when 94 - 49 is divided by
    Ans : Difference of 94 and 49 is divided by
  • #4-i
    9
    Ans : 9
  • #4-ii
    5
    Ans : 5
    Let ab = 94 and ba = 49
    ∴ a = 9 and b = 4
    (i) The quotient of 94 - 49 i.e. (ab - ba) when divided by 9 is (a - b) i.e. 9 - 4 = 5

    (ii) The quotient of 94 - 49 i.e. (ab - ba) when divide by 5 i.e.(a - b) is 9
  • Qstn #5
    Show that 527 + 752 + 275 is exactly divisible by 14.
    Ans : Property:
    abc = 100a + 106 + c ...(i)
    bca = 1006 + 10c + a ...(ii)
    and cab = 100c + 10a + b ...(iii)
    Adding, (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
    abc + bca + cab = 111a + 111b + 111c = 111(a + b + c) = 3 × 37 (a + b + c)
    Now, let us try this method on
    527 + 752 + 275 to check is it exactly divisible by 14
    Here, a = 5, 6 = 2, c = 7
    527 + 752 + 275 = 3 × 37(5 + 2 + 7) = 3 × 37 × 14
    Hence, it shows that 527 + 752 + 275 is exactly divisible by 14.
