When a number can be expressed as n(n-1)(n+1) i.e product of three consecutive numbers.....why is it necessarily divisible by 6?
can someone kindly explain?

Cos three consecutive natural numbers will always be divisible by 1X2X3 (lowest 3 consecutive natural number) i.e 6.
All other consecutive natural numbers (in pair of three) will be multiples of 1, 2 and 3.

number formed 0123...1002
For a number to be divisible by 9, sum of digits should be 9
Sum of digits = (1001*1002)/2=501501=12
Remainder = 12-9=3
d)3

I think It should be 1
Use Fermat's little theorem:For any number N not divisible by p, N^(p-1) = 1 mod p where p is a prime
hey cn u explain above example usin fermat theorem...

As per your approach you have calculated the sum of numbers, not sum of digits like you are calculating 10 + 11 as 21 whereas we need to calculate sum of digits i.e 1+0 + 1+1 = 3
What would be the right approach?
Can anyone pls solve :

hey dude its given natural number is formed by writing first 1002 whole number...so 0 ll nt cm y u hv taken zero so can u plz explain dat

lets take the example 1234567891011
my approach
sum of digits = 55+11=66=12%9=3
your approch
sum of digits = 55+1+1=57=12%9=3
can try with other numbers in the same series...

O is a whole number, so we'll consider that as well.

Find P:Q:R:S:T?
Multiple the first and second relations with 15 and 2 respectively
then ratio of P:Q:R:S:T is 180:60:45:24:10
Ques - N is a natural number formed by writing, in ascending order the first 1002 whole number. What will be the remainder when N is divided by 9?
a)2 b)1 c)4 d)3
Please reply with explanation.
The remainder when any number N divided by 9 is equal to digit sum of N
The digit sum of sum of first 1002 whole numbers is 1001*1002/2 = 1*3 =3
Q1 If n, m are natural numbers and Lcm + HCF = 63. How many ordered pairs of (n,m) exists?
Q2. In how many ways 15! Can be written as product of two coprime numbers?
15!= 2^11*3^4*5^3*11*7*13
factors should not be common in two co-prime no.s . now if i use calculation method and find the pair , it will take time so , please explain the shortcut.
1) My take is 126.
5625 = 625*9.
5126 mod 625 = 126.
126*127/2 mod 9 = 0.
Hence remainder will be of the form - 625k+126 = 9p,ie, 126.
2) My take is 4.
Just subtract sum of alternate digits.
3) My take is 249.
8*1,8*2,...,8*1000 = 8^1000(1*2*...1000) = 8^1000*1000!.
=> 1000/5 = 200/5 = 40/5 = 8/5 = 1. So, 249.
in 2 nd question , how have you find the difference between the sum of alternate digit . it is getting complicated.
The remainder when any number N divided by 9 is equal to digit sum of N
The digit sum of sum of first 1002 whole numbers is 1001*1002/2 = 1*3 =3
how have you find the digit sum ?
If n, m are natural numbers and Lcm + HCF = 63. How many ordered pairs of (n,m) exists?
Ans-(54,9), (60,3),(56,7), (42,21)
is it correct ?
amitshanky Sayshow have you find the digit sum ?
Dude it would be through this:-
n (n+1)/2
If n, m are natural numbers and Lcm + HCF = 63. How many ordered pairs of (n,m) exists?
Ans-(54,9), (60,3),(56,7), (42,21)
is it correct ?
I think it's 6 ordered pairs
Approach:
Let the numbers n be Hx and m be Hy where x and y are co-prime to each other
then LCM = Hxy and HCF = H
so,we can say H*(xy + 1) = 63 = 1*63 , 3*21 ,9*7 ,7*9, 63*1
which means x*y = 62 or 20 or 6 or 8 or 0 and here 0 and 8 are not possible
finding number of ordered pairs of (x,y) is equal to finding number ordered pairs of (n,m)
so,ordered pairs of (x,y) are (31,2)(2,31),(4,5),(5,4),(2,3),(3,2)
Hope it helps;)

I think we will include x*y=8
