Q.81 Medium Numbers
How many perfect squares are there between 100 and 200?
A 4
B 5
C 6
D 7
Correct Answer:  B. 5
Explanation:

Perfect squares between 100 and 200: 11² = 121, 12² = 144, 13² = 169, 14² = 196, 15² = 225 (exceeds 200).

So there are 4 perfect squares.

Wait: 10² = 100 (not between), so squares are 121, 144, 169, 196.

Count = 4.

Actually checking: we need squares from 11² to 14², which is 4 numbers.

Q.82 Medium Numbers
What is the remainder when 2^50 is divided by 5?
A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
Correct Answer:  D. 4
Explanation:

Powers of 2 mod 5: 2¹≡2, 2²≡4, 2³≡3, 2⁴≡1, 2⁵≡2...

Pattern repeats every 4. 50 = 4×12 + 2, so 2⁵⁰ ≡ 2² ≡ 4 (mod 5).

Q.83 Medium Numbers
Find the smallest number that when divided by 12, 15, and 20 leaves no remainder.
A 60
B 120
C 180
D 240
Correct Answer:  A. 60
Explanation:

We need LCM(12, 15, 20). 12 = 2² × 3, 15 = 3 × 5, 20 = 2² × 5. LCM = 2² × 3 × 5 = 4 × 3 × 5 = 60.

Q.84 Medium HCF and LCM
The HCF of two numbers is 15. If their LCM is 180, and one number is 45, find the other number.
A 45
B 60
C 75
D 90
Correct Answer:  B. 60
Explanation:

Using HCF × LCM = Product of two numbers: 15 × 180 = 45 × other number.

Therefore, other number = 2700 ÷ 45 = 60.

Q.87 Medium HCF and LCM
The HCF of 56, 84, and 140 is:
A 14
B 28
C 7
D 4
Correct Answer:  A. 14
Explanation:

56 = 2³ × 7, 84 = 2² × 3 × 7, 140 = 2² × 5 × 7.

Common prime factors: 2 × 7 = 14.

A 72
B 108
C 144
D 216
Correct Answer:  C. 144
Explanation:

16 = 2⁴, 24 = 2³ × 3, 36 = 2² × 3². LCM = 2⁴ × 3² = 16 × 9 = 144.

Q.89 Medium HCF and LCM
If the HCF of two numbers is 18 and their LCM is 324, one number is 36. The other number is:
A 162
B 180
C 196
D 216
Correct Answer:  A. 162
Explanation:

HCF × LCM = Product of numbers. 18 × 324 = 36 × other.

Therefore, other = 5832 ÷ 36 = 162.
