Number System
Three numbers are in ratio of 3: 4 :5. If the sum of first & third numbers is more than second number by 52, which will be largest number?
Let the price of a pen be 'x' and that of pencil be 'y' Then 87x + 29y = 783Multiplying eqn (i) by 30/29 we get (87x) x 30/29 + (29y) 30/29 = 783 x 30/29∴ 90x + 30y = 810
The least number to be added to the numbers to make them divisible by 9 is equal to the difference of the least multiple of 9 greater than the sum of the digits and sum of the digits.Sum of digits = 15.Nearest multiple of 9 greater than sum of digits = 18.Hence 3 has to be added.
If the sum of the digits of a number is divisible by 9, the number will be divisible by 9.2 + 6 + 3 + 2 + 5 + 1 = 19The nearest multiple of 9 is 18.19 - 18 = 1.
