Gullu writes the series 11, 14, 17, … , 197 on anther piece
of paper. Then they both compare their lists. How many
numbers do both have in common?
Answer Posted / abhi
9+5a=9,14,19,.....194.
11+3b=11,14,17.......197
for the numbers to be common
(1.)9+5a=9+11+3b
(2.)5a-3b=2
for integral solutions of a,b the step size of a and b is
3 and 5 respectively .
a=1,4,7,10.....so on.
b=1,6,11,16.....so on.
now substitute values back to equation 1.
we get the answer.(this is solution using properties of
graph and step size)

The square of a two digit number is divided by half the number. After 36 is added to the quotient, this sum is then divided by 2. The digits of the resulting number are the same as those in the original number, but they are in reverse order. The ten's place of the original number is equal to twice the difference between its digits. What is the number?

Samuel is obviously a bad fisherman. During the past season, in which he and the five members of his team spent four months on a boat together off Dutch Harbor, AK, he caught fewer fish than any of his teammates. Which of the following, if true, most weakens the argument above? While fishing this past season, Samuel fell sick for a week and did not catch any fish during this time. Before becoming a fisherman, Samuel piloted a fishing boat whose members regularly caught record numbers of fish. Unlike the other fishermen on his boat, at the order of the captain, Samuel fished this past season with experimental bait. Two seasons ago, Samuel fished on another boat off Dutch Harbor and caught more fish than any other member of that boat.
