- 351
- 386
- 419
- 475
Show Answer Show How to Solve Open Rough Workspace
Sum of five consecutive odd numbers is 585.
So, the third number is,
585 / 5
= 117.
So, all five odd numbers are,

Example #7 – Problem on Numbers example
If (12)3 is subtracted from the square of a number and answer is 2497. What would be the number?
- 53
- 65
- 71
- 87
Show Answer Show How to Solve Open Rough Workspace
Let, the number is X.
X2 – 123 = 2497

or, X = √4225
therefore, X = 65
Example #8
A cable is reap in 40 pieces each of 9 meter. If length of each pieces is increased by 3 meter, how many pieces will be formed?
- 20
- 25
- 30
- 34
Show Answer Show How to Solve Open Rough Workspace
Total length of the cable is,
40 x 9
= 360 meter.
If length of each pieces is increased by 3 meter, i.e, ( 9 + 3 ) = 12 meter,
Then total pieces will be,
360 / 12
= 30 pieces.
Example #9
The difference between 68% of a number and 36% of the same number is 4780. What would be the 16% of that number?
