19. To find no. of digist in 256 (which is 3),
Take log 256 and add 1 to the integer part and ignore the decimal part
log 256 = log 28 = 8 log 2 = 8*0.301 = 2.408
2.408+1 = 3.408
Ignoring the decimal part, 3
So, 256 has 3 digits, which is true
Now, I guess we want to find out the no. of digits in 256
So, answer = 1+log 256 = 1+56*log 2 =1+ 56*0.301 = 1+ 16.856
1 + 16 = 17
Hence, option 3

40. Volume of 12 cm Cube (L^3) = Total Number of 3 cm cubes (say N) * Volume of 3 cm
Cube
12*12*12 = N*3*3*3
Solving we get N= 4*4*4 = 64
12 cm cube when broken makes up 4 pices of 3 cm cubes on each side.
Only cubes at the core would not be painted. These cubes could be identified easily by
removing equivalent number of smaller cubes which form the outer surface of bigger
cube.
Visualize a structure of 3 cms cubes kept in 4*4*4 structure forming 12cm cube.
Total number of cubes forming outer surface = Total number of cube faces in outer
surface - 2* total number of cube at the corners with three shared faces - total number of
shared cubes at the edges with 2 shared faces.
Total number of 3 cms cubes faces which are part of 6 faces of 12 cm cube = 16 * 6 = 96
3 faces of cubes which are at the corner would be shared along 3 faces, number of such
cubes = 8
2 faces of cubes which are towards the edge but are not corners would be shared along 2

faces, number of such cubes = 6*4 = 24

Total number of cubes forming outer surface = 16*6 - 2*8 -6*4 = 56 cubes
Number of cubes with unpainted edges = Total Number of 3 cm cubes - Total number of
cubes forming outer surface = 64 - 56 = 8 cubes

59. We need to find the day that is dividable by all friends' intervals. In mathematical terms
the solution is the Least Common Multiple of the intervals:
LCM(1,2,3,4,5,6,7)
a simple way to calculate LCM is to factor out each number to products of prime
numbers:
1=2^0.3^0.5^0.7^0
2=2^1.3^0.5^0.7^0
3=2^0.3^1.5^0.7^0
4=2^2.3^0.5^0.7^0
5=2^0.3^0.5^1.7^0
6=2^1.3^1.5^0.7^0
7=2^0.3^0.5^0.7^1
then the LCM will be the product of the primes with highest power in each number:
LCM(1,2,3,4,5,6,7) = 2^2.3^1.5^1.7^1 = 4.3.5.7 = 420
Thus they will all meet together in the 420th day.

70. consider a clock..
1) for minute hand...
in 60 min it covers 360 degree
so in one min it covers 360/60= 6 degree
2) for hour hand...
in 12 hours it covers 360 degree
in 60 min it covers 360/12= 30 degree
so in 1 min it covers 30/60= .5 degree
NOW..
consider the vertical line joining 12pm and 6pm
at 3:15, min hand covers 90 degree from vertical line
and since the hour hand had already covered 90 degree at 3:00 so in further 15 min it
covers .5*15= 7.5 degree.
so total angle made bby hour hand with vertical line is 90+7.5=97.5 degree.
SO ANGLE MADE B/W MIN HAND AND HOUR HAND IS 97.5-90= 7.5 DEGREE.

so the probability that the coin will show tails and composite number on the cube = (1/2)
*(2/6) = 1/6
89. ECHRONICLEE can be arranged as 11!
3E's can be arranged as 3!
2c's can be arranged as 2!
total=11!/3!x2!=3326400
90. relative speed of the trains=(20+30)m/s=50 m/s
total distance to cross each other=2km+200m+300m=2500m
so,..time to cross=dist./speed=2500/50= 50 sec.
91. A's B's & c's work for 2 days=2*(1/5+1/10+1/15)=11/15
Balance work to be done=1-11/15=4/15
c's 1 work can be completed in 15days
c's 4/15 work can be done in 15*4/15= 4 days
Answer= D
92. A. 100/7%;
c.p of 100 oranges = 350
100 oranges = 100/12 = 8 dozens + 4 oranges
1 dozens s.p = 48
8 dozens s.p = 48*8=384
4 0ranges s.p = 48/12*4 = 16
100 oranges sp = 400;
profit = 50
profit% = 50/350*100 = 100/7%;
93. Option B 24
Let the two digit number is 10x+y
Product of the digits x*y=8
10x+y+18=10y+x
on solving this we get X-y=-2
x+y=6
by solving the above two equations we get x=2 and y=4
therefore the digit is 10*2+4=24
94. total food is enough to serve for 45*175=7875 soldiers
food consumed by d end of 15 days=15*175=2625
no of soldiers dat can be feeded with remaining=7875-2625=5250
as der r 75 soldiers currently
d fud last for 5250/75=70days
95. avg of 10 papers= 800
avg f 8 papers = 648
avg of 2 papers( lowest and highest )= 800-648= 152
lowest paper= 152-92= 60
96. ans=4days
let x= 1 day work of 1 boy
let y= 1 day work of 1 girl
we get 2 equations:

6x+8y = (1/10) and 26x+48y = (1/2)

solving 2 equations give:
x=(1/100) and y=(1/200)
now, 1 day work of 15 boys and 20 girls = 15x+20y= (1/4)
thus, total days taken = 4 days.
97. 61Kg.
Average weight of 24 students = 36Kg.
Average weight of 25 including teacher = 37Kg.
So teacher's weight = (37*25) - (36*24) = 925 - 864 = 61Kg.
98. Ans:- 20km
Solution:Average speed = 2ab/(a+b) here a=25 b=4
= 2x25x4/(25+4)=200/29 km/hr.
Distance covered in 5 hours 48 minutes
= Speed x time = (200/29)x (29/5) Distance covered in 5 hours 48 minutes = 40kms
Distance of the post office from the village = (40/2)=20 km.
99. use formula m1*d1 = m2*d2
3*4=4*x
x=3
so ans is 3 days
100.
Let the dist traveled on level ground = x and on the hill be y.
x/4 + y/3 + y/6 + x/4 = 6
(x+y)/2 = 6km
