What is the value of 994 × 1006?

  1. 999964
  2. 999664
  3. 999644
  4. 996644
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 999964

1. Notice 994 = 1000 − 6 and 1006 = 1000 + 6. 2. Use (a − b)(a + b) = a² − b², so the product is 1000² − 6². 3. That gives 1,000,000 − 36 = 999,964. _Source: RRB Group D (RRC) PYQ, held 27-10-2013, Q.1._

If 25 × 32 = 800, then 2.5 × 0.32 equals:

  1. 8.00
  2. 80.0
  3. .080
  4. .800
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. .800

1. 25 × 32 = 800 is given. 2. In 2.5 × 0.32, there is one decimal place in 2.5 and two in 0.32, total three. 3. Place three decimal places in 800 to get 0.800. _Source: RRB Group D (RRC) PYQ, held 27-10-2013, Q.20._

Given that 551 / 29 = 19, what is the value of 5.51 / 0.0019?

  1. 2900
  2. 2.9
  3. 290
  4. 0.29
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 2900

1. Write 5.51 / 0.0019 = (5.51 x 10000) / (0.0019 x 10000) = 55100 / 19. 2. Since 551 / 29 = 19, we have 551 / 19 = 29, so 55100 / 19 = 2900. 3. Therefore the answer is 2900. _Source: RRB Group D CEN-02/2018 PYQ, Q.21._
