  • Problems on NumbersDivision 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 NumbersArithmetic 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 Formulae1. ( a+b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab2. (a-b)2 = a2 +b2 -2ab3. ( a+b)2 - (a b)2 = 4ab4. (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)

  • Venn DiagramIf 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 DiagramSolution: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 18n( X n Y) = 5

  • Venn DiagramIf 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 DiagramAnswer: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 DiagramIf 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 DiagramAnswer: 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 DiagramIn 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 = 150No. of people can speak Hindi only _ = n ( H n E) = n ( H) n( H n E) = 750 150 = 600

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

  • Venn DiagramIn a group of 15, 7 have studied Latin, 8 have studied Greek, and 3 have not studied either. How many of these studied both Latin and Greek?
