Questions Related to forming numbers

If + means $ \div$, $ \times $ means - , - means $ \times $ & $ \div $means +, then $ 38+ 19-16\times 17 \div 3 $ is equal to

  1. 16

  2. 19

  3. 18

  4. 12


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
$ 38+ 19-16\times 17 \div 3 $ converts to 

$38 ÷ 19 × 16 - 17 + 3$

$= \dfrac{38}{19} × 16 - 17 + 3$

$= 2 × 16 - 17 + 3$

$= 32 - 17 + 3$

$= 35 - 17$

$= 18$

Explanation:

    It is clear from options.It is just expressed in mathematical form.

Find a smallest four digit number using the digits $7,8,9,5$ such that the number thus formed has $9$ at its hundreds place and $8$ at its one's place.

  1. $5978$

  2. $7598$

  3. $7958$

  4. $7985$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
The ascending order of the given numbers $7,8,9,5$ is:

$5 < 7 < 8 < 9$ 

We observe that the smallest digit is $5$ and the largest digit is $9$.
 
Therefore, the smallest number formed is $5789$.

But it is given that the number formed should have $9$ at its hundredth place and $8$ at its one's place, therfore, the required number is:

$5978$ where $8$ is at one's place, $7$ is at tens place, $9$ is at hundredth place and $5$ is at thousandth place. 

Hence, the smallest $4$ digit number formed is $5978$.

 Write the smallest $4$ digit number formed using the digits $8,3,0,1$.

  1. $1038$

  2. $1308$

  3. $1083$

  4. $0138$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
The ascending order of the given numbers $8,3,0,1$ is:

$0 < 1 < 3 < 8$ 

A number cannot begin with $0$, so we will put it in the second place. 

The smallest digit (other than $0$) is $1$. 

Therefore, the number will begin with $1$.
 
Thus, the smallest number formed is $1038$.

Hence, the smallest $4$ digit number formed is $1038$.

Which among the following  is a four digit prime number using the digits $1,7,0,9$?

  1. $1790$

  2. $1709$

  3. $9710$

  4. $7910$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
A prime number is a number which is only divisible by itself and $1$.

(a) $1790$ is divisible by $2$, so it is not a four digit prime number.

(b) $1709$ is only divisible by itself, so it is a four digit prime number.

(c) $9710$ is divisible by $2$, so it is not a four digit prime number.

(d) $7910$ is divisible by $2$, so it is not a four digit prime number.

Hence, $1709$ is a four digit prime number using the digits $1,7,0,9$.

Find the sum of smallest three digit even number and greatest three-digit odd number using the digits $6, 2, 3$

  1. $859$

  2. $958$

  3. $598$

  4. $985$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
The three digit numbers that can be formed using the digits $6,2,3$ are $623,632,263,236,362,326$ in which the odd numbers are $623,263$ and the even numbers are $632,236,362,326$.

The smallest even number is $236$ and the greatest odd number is $623$ and their sum can be determined as:

$236+623=859$

Hence, the sum of smallest three digit even number and greatest three-digit odd number using the digits $6,2,3$ is $859$.

Find a three-digit number using the digits $6, 7, 4$ such that the resultant number is divisible by 4

  1. $746$

  2. $764$

  3. $467$

  4. $647$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
(a) Let us take a number $746$ using the digits $6,7,4$ and divide it by $4$ as follows:

$\dfrac {746}{4}=\dfrac {373}{2}$

Therefore, $746$ is not divisible by $4$.

(b) Let us take a number $764$ using the digits $6,7,4$ and divide it by $4$ as follows:

$\dfrac {764}{4}=191$

Therefore, $764$ is divisible by $4$.

(c) Let us take a number $467$ using the digits $6,7,4$ and divide it by $4$ as follows:

$\dfrac {467}{4}$

Therefore, $467$ is not divisible by $4$.


(d) Let us take a number $647$ using the digits $6,7,4$ and divide it by $4$ as follows:

$\dfrac {647}{4}$

Therefore, $647$ is not divisible by $4$.

Hence, only $764$ is divisible by $4$.

Find an even $4$ digit number using $2, 7, 5,1$.

  1. $7512$

  2. $5217$

  3. $7125$

  4. $1275$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
An even number is an integer which is "evenly divisible" by two. This means that if the integer is divided by $2$, it yields no remainder.

(a) $7512$ is divisible by $2$ as $\dfrac {7512}{2}=3756$, so it is a four digit even number.

(b) $5217$ is not divisible by $2$, so it is not a four digit even number.

(c) $7125$ is not divisible by $2$, so it is not a four digit even number.

(d) $1275$ is not divisible by $2$, so it is not a four digit even number.

Hence, $7512$ is a four digit even number using the digits $2,7,5,1$.
