The number of persons who booked ticket for the New Year’s concert is a perfect square. If 100 more persons booked ticket then the number of spectators would be a perfect square plus 1. If still 100 more persons booked ticket then the number of spectators would be again a perfect square. How many persons booked ticket for the concert?

This is today's Question of the Day. Please check the link  http://tathagat.mba/quant-question-of-the-day-29-06-2018/  

tomorrow for the answer.   

Thank you, Sir

For how many non-negative integers, n, 24+27+2n  results in a perfect square?

 

 

 

24 + 27 + 2n

= 24 [ 1 + 23 + 2 (n -4) ]

= 2[ 9 +  2(n -4) ]

9 +  2(n -4) has to be a perfect square .

n = 8 is only possibility.  

9 +  2(n -4) has to be a perfect square

Sir, From this how do we conclude that n=8 is the only possibility from all the natural numbers, unless range is not given to us in the question?

9 + 2(n-4) is a perfect square 

Two cases :
(i)When ( n -4) is a perfect square  

9 + x2 = y2

9 = y2 – x2
(x-y) (x+y) = 1 x 9 or 3 x 3

Solving this we get x = 4 is a possible value .

(ii) When ( n -4) is  not a perfect square 

9 + 2(n-4) is of the form 3k + 2 Hence , Never a perfect square .

[All perfect squares are of the form 3n or 3n + 1.]

Find the sum of divisors of 544 which are perfect squares.

Find the sum of the sum of even divisors of 96 and the sum of odd divisors of 3600

0

96 = 25x3; Sum of even divisors of 96 = (21+22+23+24+25)(30+31) = 248=

3600=24x32x52; Sum of odd divisors of 3600 = (30+31+32)(50+51+52) = 403

Ans = 403+248 = 651

Let a, b, c be the numbers.

a3 = (abc + 2), b3 = (abc - 3), c3 = (abc + 3). Multiply all three equations and keep abc = x.

x3 = (x + 2)(x - 3)(x + 3) --> 2x2 - 9x - 18 = 0 --> (2x + 3)(x - 6) = 0 --> x = -3/2 or x = 6. Taking abc = 6 and noting that b is the smallest number b3 = 6 - 3 = 3 --> b = 31/3

How many divisors of the number N = 2^7 x 3^5 x 5^4 have unit digit equal to 5?

Hello Ritika , 

We know , Product of an odd natural number and 5 always ends with the unit digit   5. 

So we can select 

2^0 ( 1 way ) 

3^0 , 3^1 , 3^2 , 3^3 , 3^4 , 3^5 ( in 6 ways ) 

similarly powers of 5 in 4 ways 

 

hence 1 * 6 * 4 = 24 factors of N have unit digit equal to 5. 

0

Hello Raman,

Shouldn't there be at least one times 5 present?

5^1 5^2 5^3 5^4 = 4 ways. Hence, 1*6*4 = 24 factors.

Hi sir,

I have a confusion. 5^0 is equal to 1 which can never create a number with unit digit 5.

Hello Apoorva,

5^0=1 => multiple of 5^0 gives unit digit 5 when multiply by 5^n

Where n>0

Find the sum of the prime divisors of 1² + 2² + 3² +.......+ 2005²

Hello Vidisha , we know sum of squares of first n natural number = 

 

 

n ( n +1 )( 2n +1 )/6 

 

 

1² + 2² + 3² + ... + 2005²

 

 

= 2005 × 2006 × 4011/6

 

 

= 2005 × 1003 × 1337

 

 

= 5 × 401 × 17 × 59 × 7 × 191

 

 

= 5 × 7 × 17 × 59 × 191 × 401

 

 

Hence, required sum of primes

 

 

= 5 + 7 + 17 + 59 + 191 + 401 = 680.

 How many three digit natural number has less than 5 prime factors.Please explain in detail.

Hello Apoorva ! 

 

Smallest number which has five distinct prime factors is 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 × 11 = 2310 . 

 

All three digit natural numbers are smaller than 2310 . 

 

Hence there are  900 three digit natural numbers which have less than 5 prime factors.  🙂

 A number N has 5 factors between 1 and root N . How many factors does the number have if 

1. N is a perfect square

2. N is not a perfect square.

Hello Apoorva ! 

 

For a natural number N the number of factors of N below √N is equal to number of factors of N  above √N . 

 

So if N has five factors between √N and 1 [ 6 below √N ] it must have 6 factors above it's square root. 

 

If it is a perfect square then it's square root is also a factor . 

 

Hence , 6 + 1 + 6 = 13 for first question and 6 + 6 = 12 is the answer for the second question.  🙂
