Karmanaut:Cool device. I like the way you solve most questions with graphs. Your approach reminds me of Descartes. |

Question: the result when a number is divided by 2 is the same result when that number is divided by 4 what is the number? |

ladokuntlad: Okay, for integer n which is the smallest positive multiple of 15 such, and has only 0 or 2 as digits, we need to look at possible solutions. Firstly though, we can assume multiplicant m, to give m*15 = n. In order for multiplicant m to give integer n, we can see that multiplicant has to end with an even number, i.e. set of (2,4,6,. Termination in an odd number will give integer n which has a '5' in its digits. Secondly, n has to be divisible by both 5 & 3. This means that n (which is made up of only 0 & 2) can only end in a '0' and not a '2'. So, we have *****0 as the n we are looking for. This makes '20' available as possible number. Obviously not the answer, anyways. Again, number in tenth position cannot be a '0', hence n/5 will produce another number which will end in a '0' and will not be divisible by '3'. So, we can only have ****20. Next, we can attempt 220. 220/5 = 44 which is not divisible by 3. So, we move on with ***220. We have next, 2220 or 2020. 2020/5 = 404 which is not divisible by 3. However, 2220/5 = 444 which is divisible by 3. Sorry, Edit: Hence, smallest multiple n is 148 |

MathsChic:clap for ursef joor. good girl so answer= 148 Wat course did u study bak in skul? |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by ladokuntlad(m): 5:07pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
stlaibrowne:I can only think of zero |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 5:07pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
stlaibrowne:0. |

ladokuntlad: Let number of cards Briony now has be x. Probability of selecting four aces in a row in pack is (4/x).(3/(x-1)).(2/(x-2)).(1/(x-3)) = 1/1001 24/(x.(x-1).(x-2).(x-3))=1/1001 x.(x-1).(x-2).(x-3)=24.1001 x=14 is a positive solution. Others are negative and complex. Hence Briony has 14 cards. She had 52 before and so must have thrown away 52-14 = 38 cards. Not too sure about answer sha |

Laplacian: Each of the interior angles of a heptagon (a seven-sided polygon) is obtuse and the number of degrees in each angle is a multiple of 9. No two angles are equal. Find in degrees the sum of the largest two angles in the heptagon. Let abcd be a four digit number with the following properties: a + b + c + d = ab = c x d, where ab denotes the two-digit number 10a + b. What is the remainder when the largest number with these properties is divided by 1000? |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by MathsChic(f): 5:19pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
ladokuntlad:Hahaha It's quite an easy question though. I studied Elect Engr. |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by ladokuntlad(m): 5:19pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
MathsChic:jst a little tweaking needed |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by ladokuntlad(m): 5:24pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
MathsChic:Now is see. dat means u are limited to applied maths because i av some pure maths questions here which is my field. Or can u attempt d maths Olympiad advance level? |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by MathsChic(f): 5:29pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
ladokuntlad:Why not? I do pure and applied. |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by MathsChic(f): 5:30pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
ladokuntlad:What's wrong with the solution? |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by stlaibrowne(m): 5:44pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
ladokuntlad: Drop them |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by ladokuntlad(m): 5:45pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
MathsChic:U getting the answer with graph calculstors or software is wat is wrong with it Instruction says dont use any calculator or electrical devices |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by ladokuntlad(m): 5:47pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
stlaibrowne:Well there is currently no light So i cant upload for now I bet most of us will spend weeks getting solution to some of them. PS: the ones av been uploading are secondary level olympiad. Bt as u av made mention of me dropping advance levek, i will gladly do dat |
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by stlaibrowne(m): 5:52pm On Nov 15, 2015 |
ladokuntlad: The challenge is allowed. And that's the more reason I love the course after all so bring it on. I am on the altar now praying they bring the electricity early |
