Playing with Numbers Exercise 5.2 Solution :
Question no – (1)
Solution :
Since 35a64 is multiple of 3.
∴ 3 + 5 + a + 6 + 4 is a multiple of 3
= a + 6 is also multiple of 3
∴ a + 6 = 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 ……….(i)
But a is a digit of the number 35a64
∴ a can take values 0,1,2,3, …..9
= a + 6 can take values 6,7, 8, 9, 10, …15 …..(ii)
From (i) and (ii) we get,
a + 6 = 6 or 9, or 12 or 12 or 15
= a = 0, a = 3, a = 6, a = 9
Hence, x = 3 , 6,
Therefore, the possible values of a will be 0,3, 6, 9
Question no – (2)
Solution :
Since 18×71 is multiple of 3
∴ 1 + 8 + x + 7 + 1 is x multiple of 3
= 8 + x is also multiple of 3
∴ (8+x) = 1, 4, 7, ……(i)
But, x is a digit of the number 18×71
∴ x can take values 1,2,3, ……9
= (8+x) = can take values 6,7,8,9,10 …15 ….(ii)
From, (i) and (ii) we get
8 + x = 9 or 12 or 15
= x = 1, x = 4, x =7,
Hence x = 1, 4, 7,
Therefore, the possible values of x will be 1, 4, 7
Question no – (3)
Solution :
Since, 66784x is multiple of 9
6 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 4 + x is multiple of 9
= 4 + x is also multiple of 9
∴ 4 + x = 5, 14,………
= x = 5 or 14
Therefore, the possible values of x will be 5 or 14.
Question no – (4)
Solution :
67 × 19 is Divisible by 11.
(6 + x + 9) – (7+1) is a multiple of 11
= (15 + x) – 8 is a multiple of 11
∴ (15 + x) 8 is a multiple of 11
∴ (15 + x) = 0 or, 22, or 33
When x = 7 … then (15 + 7) = 2 multiple by 11.
Question no – (5)
Solution :
3 × 2 is multiple of 11.
We have,
Sum of the digits in odd places = 3 + 2 = 5
Sum of the digits in even places = y
∴ Sum of the digits in even places – sum of digit in odd places = y – 5
If 3×2 is multiple by 11, then
y – 5 must be a multiple of 11.
= y – 5 = 0 or 11 or 22 or 33…….
∴ y = 5 or 16 or 27……
Question no – (6)
Solution :
98215 × 2 is divisible by 4.
We have,
x² = 10x + 2 where x = 1 ,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
x² = 12, 22, 32, 42, 52, 62, 72, 82, 92,…..
out of those values of a8 only 12, 32, 52, 72, 92, are divisible by 4.
∴ x = 1, 3, 5, 7, 9,………
Therefore, all the possible values of x will be 1, 3, 5, 7, 9
Question no – (7)
Solution :
67×19 is Divisible by 11.
(6 + x + 9) – (7 + 1) is a multiple of 11
= (15 + x) – 8 is a multiple of 11
∴ (15 + x) 8 is a multiple of 11
∴ (15 + x) = 0 or, 22, or 33
When x = 7 … then (15+7) = 2 multiple by 11.
Question no – (12)
Solution :
6 is divisible by 2 not by 4.
Question no – (13)
Solution :
(i) If a number is divisible by 3 it must be divisible by 9
= False.
(ii) If a number is divisible by 9, it must be divisible by 3
= Yes, It is True that, if a number is divisible by 9, it must be divisible by 3.
(iii) If number is divisible by 4, it must be divisible by 8
= False.
(iv) If a number is divisible by 8, it must be divisible by 4
= True.
(v) A number is divisible by 18, if it is divisible by both 3 and 6
= False
Because, a number is divisible by 18, if it is divisible by both 2 and 9.
(vi) If a number is divisible by both 9 and 10, it must be divisible by 90
= True.
(vii) If a number exactly divides the sum of two numbers, it must exactly divide the numbers separately
= False.
(viii) If a number divides three numbers exactly, it must divide their sum exactly
= True.
(ix) If two numbers are co-prime, at least one of them must be a prime number
= False.
(x) The sum of two consecutive odd numbers is always divisible by 4
= True.
