$\displaystyle log _{4}18$ is 

  1. an irrational number

  2. a rational number

  3. natural number

  4. whole number

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

$  Log AB = log A + log B $
Also, $ log a^b = b log a $

So, $ log _{4} 18 = \frac { log 2 \times 3^2}{log 4}  = \frac { log 2 \times 3^2}{log 2^2}  = \frac { log 2}{2log 2} + \frac {2 log 3}{2 log 2}  = \frac {1}{2} +  \frac {log 3}{log 2}   $

As both $ log 2 $ and $ log 3 $ are irrational numbers, $ log _{x} 18 $ is an irrational number too.

Number of integers lying between $1 $ to $102$  which are divisible by all $\displaystyle \sqrt{2},\sqrt{3},\sqrt{6}, $ is 

  1. $16$
  2. $17$
  3. $15$
  4. $0$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

For a number to be divisible by $\sqrt { 2 } $, it must be an irrational number. An integer is not an irrational,

so  there are no  numbers between  $ 1$ to  $102$ which are divisible by all  $\sqrt{2},\sqrt{3},\sqrt{6}$.
