That's what I'm saying. This is an old Quant thread and was closed in the Prev. version and it doesn't seem closed in the new version as people are posting here.
We have a new Quant Thread #5 running and this was closed more than a week back. Now it seems active and so two threads pe Quants k...

@[571257:Estallar12] doesn't seem closed?
@[1:pagalguy] @[8964:deepu] Bhai...This Closed Quant Thread is also working now :|

if the question is 7^3+7^5+7^8+5^7+10^7
then split 34=2x17
now divide each numerator term by 2 & 17 and find the remainder accordingly
what is the remainder when 73+75+78+57+107 is divided by 34. I need the solution?
is it 624/125?????
My take 85
Start with the end and half the amount with everyone
Second last stage
A=200 B, C and D all have 40 each
Third Last stage
A=100 B=180 and C and D = 20 each
Fourth last stage
A=50 B=90 C= 170 and D=10
So in the first stage C=170/2= 85
A,B,C,D each had some money.D doubled the amounts with the others.C then doubled the amounts with the others.B then doubled the amount with the others.A then doubled the amount with the others.At this stage,each of them had Rs 80.Find the initial amount with C.
A) 45
B) 65
C) 95
D) 85
I understand your emotions puys ;)
The problem is the PG server. It becomes really a burden on a server when any thread nears 1000 pages. It is better to remove some burden off the server. I hope you understand

Noooooooooooooooooo...10 more pages , till its 1000...

47^89
UNIT DIGIT =7; 47^88*47=(.......1)*47=47
tens digit= (47^4)^22*47=(.........81)^22*47
take product of 8 and 2i.e 16 =>(.........61)*47=..............67(direct method)
6 tens 7 unit digit

-----------------------------------
E(9)= 6
(11^22^33)/6=> /6=> (-1)^even=1
=> (5^1)/9=> 5
5?
tn+1 = /n^2
t6 = t5*(4*6)/5^2
t7 = t6*(5*7)/7^2 = t5*(4*6)/5^2 * (5*7)/7^2
...
t25 = t5*(4*6)/5^2 * (5*7)/7^2*...*(23*25)/24^2
All terms except t5*(4/5)(25/24) ll get cancelled
on substituting t5 value,it becomes 5
tn/t(n+1) = n^2/(n-1)*(n+1)
t5/t6 = 5^2/4*6
t6/t7 = 6^2/5*8
t7/t8 = 7^2/6*9
and so on till t24/t25 = 24^2/23*26
Multiply all the terms to get
t5/t25 = (5^2 * 6^2 * 7^2 * ...... * 24^2 ) /(4*6) * (5*8 ) * ...... * (23*26)
Calculate ho jayega ab ;)
I think 5 aayega

====================================
Yesch ..its absolutely right...Thankx d Qsss.. bhai.
1 1
yes .....1 out of n letters do not reach destination so it means (n-1) reach destination ....so favourable prob is (n-1)/n
tn/t(n+1) = n^2/(n-1)(n+1)
t5/t6 = 5^2/4*6
t6/t7 = 6^2/5*7
t7/t8 = 7^2/6*7
t8/t9 = 8^2/7*9
.
.
.
t24/t25 = 24^2/23*25
multiple all RHSs and LHSs
t5/t6 * t6/t7 * t7/t8 * . . . * t23/t24 * t24/t25 = 5^2/4*6 * 6^2/5*7 * 7^2/6*7 * . . . 23^2/22*24 * 24^2/23*25
= t5/t2...

the other way is by cyclicity
5/9= 5
25/9= 7
7*5/9= 8
8*5/9= 4
4*5/9=2
2*5/9= 1
hence there is a cyclicity of 6 for 5/9
when divided by 11/6 = 5
5*11/6 = 1
hence 2 cyclity which is divisible to 12^13 hence it will leave 0
which in turn leave 11^0=1
and 5^1/9= 5
oops! sorry ..done:)
bhai its written
1 out of n is not received so can we say
for n only the Favourable probability is 1-1/n ??
plzz check??
armaan bhai.....i have already removed my groan... galti se ho gaya tha...
nahi to culdip bhai ke posts par groan...na baba na
1 1
madam ji!
kindly see my previous post...i have edited my solution
actually euler of 9 is 6 9*(1-1/3)=6
euler wala question kaafi time baad kiya , to concept bhul gaya tha
1 1
question ka denominator clear karo:(
P.S: at ashish 100 bhai tune Galti se culdip bhai Ki post pe Groan kar diya .. on 987 page pe
Yesch and Brother i made a mistake in Calculation 36-25=not 9 it is 11 :((
so i think answer should be 6/11
Come again please
anyone got this?
In a series , the nth term tn=t(n+1)*n^2/(n^2-1) , for all n>=2.If t5=6,find t25
1 1
n%25=0
n%4=1*2*3*3=18=2
25k=4l+2
k-2=4l
k=6
so last two digits=50
1 1
euler of 9 is 6
check divisibility of 11^22^33 by 6
or -1^22^33 by 6
which leaves remainder 1
so expression is
5^11^22^33-1 *5
so OA is 5
=============================================
?????
bhai
1/6+5/6*5/6*1/6+ 5/6*5/6*5/6*5/6*1/6.... continue
these highlighted are the failure of previous steps of A and B???
47^89%25
=47^4=-3^4=81=6
=6
47^89%4=-1
=3
25k+6=4l+3
25k+3=4l
l=k+3+(24k)%4
so k=1
ans. = 31
1 1
my take 5

Q2) A and B throw one dice for the stake of Rs 11. w/c is to be won by the player who first throws a six, the game ends when the stake is won by A or B. If has the first throw, what are their respective expectation?
assuming A throws first :
P(A)=1/6 + 5/6*5/6*1/6 +5/6*5/6*5/6*5/6*1/6+.......
(5^11^22^33)/9 ... puys can you please let me know the remainder .
Q5) sanjay writes a letter to his frnd. it is known that one out 'n' letters that are posted does not reach its destination. If sanjay does not receive the reply to his letter. then what is the prob that kesari didnot recvd sanjay's letter?? It is certain that kesari will definately reply to sanj...

Bhai ans : 7 bombs diya hai

Q:1) 3 of the 6 vertices of regular hexagon are choosen at randomthe prob that the triangle with these vertices is equilateral?
getting two triangles so 2/6c3 =2/20 =1/10
suppose at least n bombs are needed for given condition...
then prob that no bomb hits + only 1 bomb hits < (1-0.9)
so 1/2^n + nc1*1/2*1/2^(n-1) < 0.1
=> (n+1)/2^n < 0.1
least value of n is 7
so at least 7 bombs are needed for given condition
