Ques:- The average length of three tapes is 6800 feet. None of the tapes is less than 6400 feet. What is the greatest possible length of one of the other tapes?
Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:00:30:

x+y+z
—– = 6800
3
x>=6400
6400 + y + z = 20400
y + z = 14000
to get the greatest of y and z, lets assume y = 6400
so, z = 7600
so ANS is 7600

Ques:- Mudit’s age 18 years hence will be thrice his age four years ago. What is Mudit’s present age?
Recent Answer : Added by DK BOSS On 2021-07-16 09:53:11:

Ans :15
X be a present age of mudit
After 18 year age of mudit is X+18
4 year ago age was X-4
As per question,
X+18=3(X-4)
X+18=3X-12
3X-X=18+12
2X=30
X=15

Ques:- Let S be the set of prime numbers greater than or equal to 2 and less than 100. Multiply all the elements of S. With how many consecutive zeros will the product end?
A. 1
B. 4
C. 5
D. 10
Recent Answer : Added by Yash G On 2023-03-01 17:24:09:

To determine how many consecutive zeros the product of S will end with, we need to find the highest power of 10 that divides the product. This is equivalent to finding the highest power of 5 that divides the product, since the number of factors of 2 will always be greater than the number of factors of 5.

The primes in S are {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97}.

There are 24 primes in S, so the product of S is:

2 x 3 x 5 x 7 x 11 x 13 x 17 x 19 x 23 x 29 x 31 x 37 x 41 x 43 x 47 x 53 x 59 x 61 x 67 x 71 x 73 x 79 x 83 x 89 x 97

We need to find the highest power of 5 that divides this product. To do this, we count the number of factors of 5 in the prime factorization of each number in S.

5 appears once: 5
5 appears once: 25
5 appears once: 35
5 appears once: 55
5 appears once: 65
5 appears once: 85
So, there are six factors of 5 in the product of S. However, we also need to consider the powers of 5 that arise from the factors 25, 35, 55, and 65.

25 = 5 x 5 appears once: 25
35 = 5 x 7 appears once: 35
55 = 5 x 11 appears once: 55
65 = 5 x 13 appears once: 65
Each of these numbers contributes an additional factor of 5 to the product of S. Therefore, there are 6 + 4 = 10 factors of 5 in the product of S.

Since each factor of 5 corresponds to a factor of 10, we know that the product of S will end with 10 zeros. Therefore, the product of S will end with 10 consecutive zeros
