What is the sum of all prime numbers between 60 and 80?

Answer: A

We need to identify the prime numbers between 60 and 80.

Prime numbers are: 61, 67, 71, 73, 79.

Sum = \(61 + 67 + 71 + 73 + 79\).

Sum = \((60+1) + (60+7) + (70+1) + (70+3) + (70+9) = 120 + 210 + (1+7+1+3+9) = 330 + 21 = 351\).

A number when divided by 296 gives a remainder of 75. When the same number is divided by 37, the remainder is:

Answer: A

Let the number be N. N = 296k + 75.

We need to find the remainder when N is divided by 37.

First, check if 296 is divisible by 37. \(296 = 37 \times 8\).

Since the first divisor is a multiple of the second divisor, we can simply divide the first remainder by the second divisor.

Remainder = \(75 \div 37\).

\(75 = 2 \times 37 + 1\).

The remainder is 1.

A number whose fifth part increased by 4 is equal to its fourth part diminished by 10. The number is:

Answer: C

Let the number be x.

The equation is \(\frac{x}{5} + 4 = \frac{x}{4} - 10\).

\(4 + 10 = \frac{x}{4} - \frac{x}{5}\).

\(14 = \frac{5x - 4x}{20}\).

\(14 = \frac{x}{20}\).

\(x = 14 \times 20 = 280\).

What is the value of \(\sqrt[3]{4 \frac{12}{125}}\)?

Answer: C

First, convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction.

\(4 \frac{12}{125} = \frac{4 \times 125 + 12}{125} = \frac{500+12}{125} = \frac{512}{125}\).

Now find the cube root: \(\sqrt[3]{\frac{512}{125}} = \frac{\sqrt[3]{512}}{\sqrt[3]{125}}\).

We know \(8^3 = 512\) and \(5^3 = 125\).

So the value is \(\frac{8}{5} = 1.6\).

Find the value of \(1/(2\times3) + 1/(3\times4) + 1/(4\times5) + ... + 1/(9\times10)\).

Answer: B

This is a telescoping series. Each term can be split using partial fractions: \(1/(n(n+1)) = 1/n - 1/(n+1)\).

The series becomes: \((\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{3}) + (\frac{1}{3} - \frac{1}{4}) + (\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{5}) + ... + (\frac{1}{9} - \frac{1}{10})\).

All the intermediate terms cancel out.

We are left with \(\frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{10}\).

\(\frac{5-1}{10} = \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5}\).

What will be the remainder when \(17^{200}\) is divided by 18?

Answer: A

We can use the remainder theorem.

\(17\) can be written as \((18 - 1)\).

So, we need to find the remainder of \((18-1)^{200} \div 18\).

Using the binomial expansion, every term except the last one will have 18 as a factor. The last term is \((-1)^{200}\).

\((-1)^{200} = 1\).

So the remainder is 1.

If the product of three consecutive integers is 120, then the sum of the integers is:

Answer: C

Let the consecutive integers be \(n-1, n, n+1\).

We need to find three consecutive numbers whose product is 120. We can estimate the cube root of 120. \(5^3=125\), so the numbers should be around 5.

Let's try 4, 5, and 6.

\(4 \times 5 \times 6 = 20 \times 6 = 120\). This is correct.

The integers are 4, 5, and 6.

Their sum is \(4 + 5 + 6 = 15\).

What is the next number in the sequence: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ...?

Answer: B

The sequence consists of the squares of natural numbers.

\(1 = 1^2\)

\(4 = 2^2\)

\(9 = 3^2\)

\(16 = 4^2\)

\(25 = 5^2\)

The next term will be \(6^2 = 36\).

What is the equivalent of 0.75 as a fraction?

Answer: B

\(0.75\) can be written as \(\frac{75}{100}\).

To simplify the fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 25.

\(75 \div 25 = 3\).

\(100 \div 25 = 4\).

So, the fraction is \(\frac{3}{4}\).

Find the value of \((243)^{0.16} \times (243)^{0.04}\).

Answer: B

When multiplying powers with the same base, we add the exponents.

The expression becomes \((243)^{0.16 + 0.04} = (243)^{0.20}\).

\(0.20\) as a fraction is \(20/100 = 1/5\).

So we need to find \((243)^{1/5}\), which is the fifth root of 243.

We know that \(3^5 = 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 243\).

Therefore, the value is 3.
