Number System
A man engaged a servant on the condition that he would pay him Rs.900 and a uniform after one year service. He served only for 9 months and received uniform and Rs.650, find the price of the uniform?
Let the consecutive even numbers be A = 2x, B = 2x + 2, C = 2x + 4, D = 2x + 6 and E = 2x + 8= A + B + C + D + E = 130= 10x + 20 = 130∴ x = 130 - 20/10 = 11Therefore, product of A and E= 22 x 30 = 660
Suppose the digit at unit's places is y and that at ten's places is x.Then, the number = 10x + y,According to the question.x + y = 8 .......(i)Again 10x + y - 18= 10y + x= 10x + y - 10y - x = 18= x - y = 2 ............(iii)From, equation (i) and (iii) we get x + y = 8x - y = 22x = 10= x = 5 and y = 3∴ number = 10 x 5 + 3 = 53
