When $70, 000$ is written as $7.0\times10^n$, what is the value of $n$?

  1. $1$

  2. $2$

  3. $3$

  4. $4$

  5. $5$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Given that $70,000$ is written as $7.0$ $\times $ ${10}^{n}$

From this, we can write
$70,000$ $=$ $7.0$ $\times$ ${10}^{n}$
$\Rightarrow {10}^{n}$ $=$ $\dfrac {70,000}{7}$
$\Rightarrow {10}^{n}$ $=$ $10,000$
$\Rightarrow {10}^{n}$ $=$ ${10}^{4}$
$\Rightarrow n$ $=$ $\log _{10}$ ${10}^{4}$
$\Rightarrow n$ $=$ $4$ $\log _{10}$ $10$
$\Rightarrow $ $=$ $4$
Therefore, the value of $n$ is $'4'$.

Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$15240000 = 1524\times 10000$

                   $= 1.524 \times 1000 \times 10000$
                   $= 1.524 \times 10^{7}$

Which of the following is equivalent to $ 7.7 \times 10^{-6}$?

  1. $0.00000077$

  2. $0.0000077$

  3. $0.000077$

  4. $0.00077$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$7.7 \times 10^{-6}=\dfrac{7.7}{1000000}=0.0000077$

The number $3.02 \times10^{-6}$ can be expressed in decimal form as:

  1. $0.0000302$

  2. $0.00000302$

  3. $0.000302$

  4. $0.00302$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$3.02 \times10^{-6}$ = $\dfrac{3.02}{1000000}$ $= 0.00000302$

The number $3\times10^{-8}$ can also be expressed as:

  1. $0.000003$

  2. $0.00003$

  3. $0.00000003$

  4. $0.0003$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$3\times10^{-8}$ $=$ $\dfrac{3}{100000000}$ $=$ ${0.00000003}$

The value of $\dfrac{(10^4+324)(22^4+324)(34^4+324)(46^4+324)(58^4+324)}{(4^4+324)(16^4+324)(28^4+324)(40^4+324)(52^4+324)}$ is?

  1. $324$

  2. $400$

  3. $373$

  4. $1024$


Correct Option: A

Find the unit digit of ${3^{46}} + 125 \times 436 + 256 \times {7^{345}}$

  1. $1$

  2. $3$

  3. $7$

  4. $9$


Correct Option: B

Find the last two digits of $3^{1997}$.

  1. $67$

  2. $63$

  3. $80$

  4. $56$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

This is same as asking what is remainder when $3^{1997}\div 100$
$3^{4}\equiv 81  mod  100$
$3^{8}\equiv 61  mod  100$
$3^{12}\equiv 41  mod  100$
$3^{16}\equiv 21  mod  100$
$3^{20}\equiv 1  mod  100$


Now, $3^{40}, 3^{60}, 3^{80}, 3^{100}, ...., 3^{1980}$ all are $\equiv 1  mod  100$

We know $3^{16}\equiv 21  mod  100$

$3^{17}\equiv 21\times 3  mod  100$

$3^{17}\equiv 63  mod  100$

$\therefore 3^{1997}\equiv 3^{1980}\times 3^{17}$

since, $3^{1980}\equiv 1  mod  100$

and $3^{17}\equiv 63  mod  100$

$\therefore 3^{1997}\equiv 63  mod  100$

$\therefore $ Last two digit is 63

The value of ${\left( {{{27}^{\tfrac{{ - 2}}{3}}}} \right)^{\tfrac{1}{2}}} \times {\left( {{{64}^{\tfrac{1}{3}}}} \right)^2} \times {\left( {{{81}^{\tfrac{{ - 3}}{2}}}} \right)^{\tfrac{1}{6}}}$

  1. $\dfrac{1}{9}$

  2. $\dfrac{16}{9}$

  3. $\dfrac{2}{9}$

  4. $-\dfrac{16}{9}$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
${\left( {{{27}^{\tfrac{{ - 2}}{3}}}} \right)^{\tfrac{1}{2}}} \times {\left( {{{64}^{\tfrac{1}{3}}}} \right)^2} \times {\left( {{{81}^{\tfrac{{ - 3}}{2}}}} \right)^{\tfrac{1}{6}}}$

$\displaystyle =\left(\dfrac{1}{(27)^{\tfrac{2}{3}}}\right)^{\tfrac{1}{2}}\times (4^{3\times \tfrac{1}{3}})^{2}\times \left(\dfrac{1}{(81)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\right)^{\tfrac{1}{6}}$

$\displaystyle =\left(\dfrac{1}{27}\right)^{\tfrac{2}{3}\times \tfrac{1}{2}}\times (4)^{2}\times \left(\dfrac{1}{81}\right)^{\tfrac{3}{2}\times \tfrac{1}{6}}$

$\displaystyle =\left(\dfrac{1}{3^{3}}\right)^{\tfrac{1}{3}}\times (4)^{2}\times \left(\dfrac{1}{3^{4}}\right)^{\tfrac{1}{4}}$

$\displaystyle =\frac{1}{3}\times 16\times \frac{1}{3}$

$=\dfrac{16}{9}$
