Questions Related to forming numbers

A three digit number from the given digits $2, 5, 7,9$ which divisible by 2.

  1. $257$

  2. $925$

  3. $527$

  4. $752$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Consider the given digits.

$2, 5, 7, 9$

If a number which is divided by $2$, then the units digit must be even.

So, from the given options there is only one option which has unit digit $2$.

Hence, the three digit number will be $752$.

Hence, this is the answer.

Let the given digits be $2, 3, 6,7$, find the greatest three digit number that can be formed with using the given digits only once.

  1. $763$

  2. $736$

  3. $723$

  4. $732$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$2,3,6,7$

Greatest three digit number will be formed my largest of the three digits from the given ones, i.e. $7,6,3$

Greatest three digits number possible $= 763$

Form a three digits even number using the digits $7, 6, 9.$

  1. $796$

  2. $769$

  3. $976$

  4. $967$


Correct Option: A,C
Explanation:

the number formed using given digits are

$769,796,976,967,679,697$
Even numbers are $796,976$

Find the greatest three-digit number using the digits $7, 6, 3$

  1. $763$

  2. $367$

  3. $637$

  4. $376$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
The descending order of the given numbers $7,6,3$ is:

$7>6>3$ 

We observe that the smallest digit is $3$ and the largest digit is $7$, so the number should start with $7$ and end with $3$.
 
Thus, the largest number formed is $763$.

Hence, the greatest three digit number formed is $763$.

Find a smallest three digit number using the digits $4,7,9$

  1. $974$

  2. $497$

  3. $479$

  4. $794$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Smallest three digit number which can be formed is if we arrange them in ascending order, i.e. $479$


Hence $479$ is the smallest three digit number.

Mohit has five number cards with numbers $7,9,0,5$ and $2$. Raman asked him to from the greatest $5$-digit even number with his cards. From the number Mohit has to form.

  1. $97520$

  2. $97502$

  3. $27509$

  4. $75902$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

According to given information
The $5$-digit number is even
$\therefore$ $5$th number will be $0$ or $2$ which are the only even numbers
So, the greatest $5$-digit even number that can be formed is $97520$

Which of the following will be the last digit of the second highest number after the positions of the digits in each number is reversed? 

$738, 429, 156, 273, 894$.

  1. $1$

  2. $2$

  3. $4$

  4. $7$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
The given sequence is : $738,429,156,273,894$
After reversing the digits, the sequence becomes : $837, 924, 651, 372, 498$.
The second highest number is $837$ and it's last digit is $7$.
Hence, $7$ is the correct answer.

$a, b, c (a > c)$ are three digits from left to right, of a three digits number. If the number with these digits reversed is subtracted from the original number, the resulting number has the digits 4 in its unit place. The other two digits from left to right are

  1. 5 and 4

  2. 5 and 9

  3. 4 and 5

  4. 9 and 5


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

How many positive integers less than $1000$ are $6$ times the sum of their digits ?

  1. $0$

  2. $1$

  3. $2$

  4. $4$


Correct Option: B

Find the greatest number that will divide $400$, $435$ and $541$ leaving $9$, $10$ and $14$ as remainders respectively

  1. $17$

  2. $4$

  3. $55$

  4. $11$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$400-9=391$


$435-10=425$


$541-14=527$

$391=17\times23$

$425=5\times5\times17$

$527=17\times31$

 HCF of $391,425$ and $527=17$ 

Required number$=17$
