Find the value of $11\times 13$.

  1. 143

  2. 163

  3. 173

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$11\times13$ $=$ $(10+1)$ $(10+3)$

$100+30+1+3$ $=$ $143$
Hence, Option A is correct.

Find the sum of:
$1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19+21+23$

  1. $11^2$

  2. $12^2$

  3. $10^2$

  4. $13^2$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
$S _{n}=\dfrac{n}{2}\left [ 2a+(n-1)d \right ]$
$a =$ First term
$d =$ Common difference
$n =$ number of terms

Given series is an A.P.
with first term $=$ $1$
common difference $=$ $2$
and last term $=$ $23$

Sum $=$ $\dfrac{12}{2}$ $\times$ $(2+11\cdot 2)$ $=$ $12\times12$
Hence, Option B is correct.

Find the value of the following:
$20\times21$

  1. 410

  2. 420

  3. 430

  4. 440


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$20\times21$ $=$ $(20+0)$ $(20+1)$

$400+20$ $=$ $420$
Hence, Option B is correct.

Find the value of the following using some identity.

$44 \times 46$

  1. $2024$

  2. $2050$

  3. $2040$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$44\times46$ $=$ $(40+4)$ $(40+6)$

$1600+240+160+24$ $=$ $2024$
Hence, Option A is correct.

Find the sum of first $8$ odd numbers.

  1. $46$

  2. $64$

  3. $72$

  4. $8$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Sum of first $8$ odd numbers is $1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15=64$

$N=$ Number of odd numbers are $8$, so $8^2 = 64$

Therefore, B is the correct answer.

Find the value of the following using multiplication pattern.

$29 \times 31$

  1. $866$

  2. $799$

  3. $699$

  4. $899$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$29\times31$ $=$ $(30-1)$ $(30+1)$

$900-1$ $=$ $899$
Hence, Option D is correct.

The resultant of $16\times 18 $ is 

  1. $248$

  2. $288$

  3. $268$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$16\times18$ $=$ $(20-4)$ $(20-2)$

$400-40-80+8$ $=$ $288$
Hence, Option B is correct.

When we combine two consecutive triangular numbers, we get a __________.

  1. square number

  2. consecutive number

  3. non square number

  4. zero


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Triangular numbers are obtained by continued summation of natural numbers $1,2,3,4,5,6,7,.....$ 

$\therefore$ Set of triangular numbers is $1,3,6,10,15,21,28.....$
When we add two triangular numbers we get a Square number. 

For example, $1+3=4=2^2$,   $3+6=9=3^2$,   $6+10=16=4^2$ and so on.....
Hence, option A is correct.

Evaluate $22\times 24$ using even-even pattern

  1. $428$

  2. $528$

  3. $628$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$22\times 24=(20+2)$$\times$$(20+4)$ 

$=$ $400+80+40+8$ $=$  $528$
Hence, Option B is correct.

Find the value of $19 \times 21$ using odd-even property.

  1. 399

  2. 299

  3. 199

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$19\times 21=(20-1)$ $\times$ $(20+1)$ 

$=$ $400$ $+20-20-1$ $=$ $399$
Hence, Option A is correct.
