Solution:

You may solve this question with different methods but we are only giving away one.

What you have to do in that method is look for a number x to which all the numbers from 2 to 10 divide evenly. Multiplying the numbers together (2*3*4*5*6*7*8*9*10) will give you a big number but we have to find a smaller possibility. What we can do is find the prime factors, a subset of which we can use to form a number from 2 to 10.

2*2*2*3*3*5*7 will certainly give us what we need. The product is 2520 and it is the lowest possible number which can be evenly divided by 2-10.

Now if we add 1 to the number, the result will be 2521 which will satisfy all the conditions from 2 to 10. But will not hold true in case of 11.

If you calculate, you will see that you can multiply 2520 by any integer and add 1 to it to satisfy all the conditions except the divisibility by 11. What we need is an integer Y that can be multiplied by 2520 and if we add 1 to the product, it becomes divisible by 11.

2520/11 leaves a remainder 1. Now let us keep increasing the number of 2520. Suppose if we divide two 2520 by 11, the remainder then will be 1 + 1 = 2. If we keep going on like that. Ten 2520 when divided by 11 will give 10 as remainder and if we add 1 to them, it will be completely divisible. Also it will satisfy all the conditions from 2-10.

Thus our answer is 25201.

Solution:

50%

Explanation:
n (a^b) = n(a) + n(b) - n (a v b)
=> 0.75 + 0.55 - 0.8
=> 0.5 which is equal to 50%
Thus 50% students answered both the questions correctly

Solution:

110-130

Explanation:
Total students = 200
Studying neither Chemistry nor Biology =30
Chemistry = 130
Bio = 130
Maximum common = Minimum of the two = 130
If neither = 30
Then common = 150 + 130 + 30 - 200 = 110
Range is 110-130

Solution:

Consider the fact that both Andy and Brian can make independent decisions. Thus we will have to apply Intersection here. First let us calculate their individual probability.

Probability of Andy speaking truth = 80/100 = 0.8
Probability of Brian speaking truth = 60/100 = 0.6

Probability of Andy Intersection Probability of Brian = 0.8 * 0.6 = 0.48

Solution:

There are 10 possible combinations.

And out of those only four of them i.e. [1, 2, 3], [2, 3, 4], [3, 4, 5] and [1, 3, 5] are arranged in the increasing order.

Thus the probability is 4/10 = 0.4

Solution:

Payal

Solution:

1500

Explanation:
As we know, n(A n B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A U B)
=> n(A) = 0.75x7500 = 5625.
and n(B) = 0.45x7500 = 3375
n(A U B)= 7500

=> Ans is 5625+3375-7500 = 1500(Answer)
