Cevap: 29.5

Cevap

The simplified numerical value of the given expression is 29.5.
Following the BODMAS rule systematically, we first resolve the vinculum to get 2.8, then evaluate the round brackets (4.8 - 2.8 = 2.0). Next, inside the curly brackets, multiplication yields 1.5 and addition yields 3.75. Evaluating the square brackets yields 4.5 - 3.75 = 0.75. Dividing 18 by 0.75 gives 24, and adding 5.5 gives the final correct answer of 29.5.

Cevap: 8

Cevap

The unit digit of the expression is 8.
Evaluating the expression requires breaking it down into two components. First, for the factorial sum 1!+2!+3!++20!1! + 2! + 3! + \dots + 20!, every term from 5!5! onward contains factors of both 2 and 5, so its unit digit is 0. The unit digit of the sum is determined solely by 1!+2!+3!+4!=331! + 2! + 3! + 4! = 33, which has a unit digit of 3. Raising 3 to the power 2026 gives 320263^{2026}. Since the unit digits of powers of 3 repeat in cycles of 4 (3, 9, 7, 1) and 20262(mod4)2026 \equiv 2 \pmod 4, the unit digit of 320263^{2026} is 32=93^2 = 9.

Second, the product 31×32××3203^1 \times 3^2 \times \dots \times 3^{20} simplifies using the exponent addition rule to 31+2++20=32103^{1+2+\dots+20} = 3^{210}. Dividing 210 by 4 leaves a remainder of 2, so 32103^{210} also has a unit digit of 32=93^2 = 9.

Adding the unit digits of both terms gives 9+9=189 + 9 = 18, resulting in a final unit digit of 8.

Cevap: 144

Cevap

The final simplified numerical value of the given expression is 144.
Following the BODMAS rule strictly: first evaluate the vinculum 4.2+3.8=8\overline{4.2 + 3.8} = 8; then resolve round brackets (6.8×2.58=9)(6.8 \times 2.5 - 8 = 9); next resolve curly brackets (15.59÷0.5=2.5)(15.5 - 9 \div 0.5 = -2.5); then square brackets (38.52.5=36)(38.5 - 2.5 = 36); and finally compute 75% of 240=18075\% \text{ of } 240 = 180. Subtracting 3636 from 180180 gives the correct result of 144.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the vinculum (bar) operator first
\overline{4.2 + 3.8} = 8
According to BODMAS, the vinculum takes precedence over round brackets.
2
Simplify the terms inside the round brackets (parentheses)
6.8 \times 2.5 - 8 = 17 - 8 = 9
Multiplication precedes subtraction inside the innermost round brackets.
3
Simplify the terms inside the curly brackets (braces)
15.5 - (9 \div 0.5) = 15.5 - 18 = -2.5
Division (9÷0.5=189 \div 0.5 = 18) is performed before subtracting from 15.515.5 (151215\frac{1}{2}).
4
Simplify the terms inside the square brackets
38.5 + (-2.5) = 36
Adding the negative result from the curly brackets to 38.538.5 yields 3636.
5
Calculate the percentage 'Of' operation and perform final subtraction
75\% \text{ of } 240 - 36 = 180 - 36 = 144
'Of' operation (75%×240=18075\% \times 240 = 180) is calculated before subtracting the bracketed total.

The value of M2+kM^2 + k is 23.5.
By writing 7±2107 \pm 2\sqrt{10} as (5±2)2(\sqrt{5} \pm \sqrt{2})^2, the radical simplifies cleanly to M=25M = 2\sqrt{5}, giving M2=20M^2 = 20. Rewriting the index equation in terms of base 2 yields 4x23=4x+16\frac{4x-2}{3} = -4x + 16, which gives x=258x = \frac{25}{8} and exponent k=3.5k = 3.5. Adding M2M^2 and kk results in 23.5.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Simplify the nested surd expression for M
M = 2\sqrt{5}, so M^2 = 20

Apply laws of indices: 43=22/3\sqrt[3]{4} = 2^{2/3} and 116=24\frac{1}{16} = 2^{-4}.
3
Solve for x by equating the powers of 2
x=258=3.125x = \frac{25}{8} = 3.125
Since bases are equal, the powers must be equal.

The Highest Common Factor (HCF) and Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two positive three-digit integers PP and QQ (where P>QP > Q) are 2424 and 10801080, respectively. If the difference between the two numbers is 9696, what is the sum of the two numbers (P+QP + Q)?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 336

Cevap

The sum of the two numbers P and Q is 336.
By representing P=24aP = 24a and Q=24bQ = 24b with gcd(a,b)=1\gcd(a, b) = 1, the relation HCF×LCM=P×Q\text{HCF} \times \text{LCM} = P \times Q yields a×b=45a \times b = 45. The coprime factor pairs of 4545 are (45,1)(45, 1) and (9,5)(9, 5). The pair (45,1)(45, 1) gives 10801080 and 2424, which are not both three-digit numbers. The pair (9,5)(9, 5) gives P=216P = 216 and Q=120Q = 120, both of which are three-digit numbers with a difference of 9696. The sum of these two numbers is 216+120=336216 + 120 = 336.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Express the two numbers in terms of their HCF and coprime factors
Let P=24aP = 24a and Q=24bQ = 24b where gcd(a,b)=1\gcd(a, b) = 1 and a>ba > b.
Any two numbers sharing an HCF of hh can be represented as hah \cdot a and hbh \cdot b where aa and bb have no common prime factors.
2
Relate the product of the coprime factors to the LCM and HCF
a×b=LCMHCF=108024=45a \times b = \frac{\text{LCM}}{\text{HCF}} = \frac{1080}{24} = 45.
The product of two numbers equals the product of their HCF and LCM: (24a)(24b)=24×1080(24a)(24b) = 24 \times 1080.
3
Identify all coprime factor pairs of 45
The coprime factor pairs (a,b)(a, b) with a>ba > b are (45,1)(45, 1) and (9,5)(9, 5).
Factor pairs such as (15,3)(15, 3) are invalid because gcd(15,3)=31\gcd(15, 3) = 3 \neq 1.
4
Apply the three-digit integer and difference constraints to select the valid pair
For (a,b)=(9,5)(a, b) = (9, 5), P=24×9=216P = 24 \times 9 = 216 and Q=24×5=120Q = 24 \times 5 = 120. Difference = 216120=96216 - 120 = 96.
The pair (45,1)(45, 1) yields P=1080P = 1080 (four digits) and Q=24Q = 24 (two digits), failing the three-digit criteria.
5
Calculate the sum of PP and QQ
P+Q=216+120=336P + Q = 216 + 120 = 336.
The question asks specifically for the sum P+QP + Q.
