new doubt on NUMBER SYSTEM

1.CAN ANYBODY SOLVE DIS PROBLEM 4 ME?  WAT LL B THE REMAINDER WHEN 

  1+11^11+111^111+1111^1111+..................+1111111111^1111111111 IS DIVIDED BY 100?

2.3^36-1=1A009463A296999120 , WHERE A IS A SINGLE DIGIT NATURAL NO.WHAT Z D VALUE OF A?

a.5    b.1     c.2      d.8                                                      

Answer to Q1.

Answer to Q1.

Reminder of 111111 = (11 +100 )111 = Reminder of 11111

Reminder of 11111111 = (11 +1100 )111 = Reminder of 111111

SO Reminder of 1+11^11+111^111+1111^1111+..................+1111111111^1111111111 IS DIVIDED BY 100

= Reminder of 1+11^11+11^111+11^1111+..................+11^1111111111 IS DIVIDED BY 100

Now

All the terms except 1 'll give a reminder 11 when divided by 100

1111 = (1 +10 )11 = ( 1 + 11 C1 10  + 100 K)

SO Reminder of 1+11^11+11^111+11^1111+..................+11^1111111111  DIVIDED BY 100

= Reminder of 1 + 11 + 11 + 11 +.................. + 11 DIVIDED BY 100

= Reminder of 100 DIVIDED BY 100

= Answer is ZERO (0)

RE:

Q 1.

 

same approach as defined above...no need to do calculations at al...one can do orally also in CAT...basics f binomials is required..

 

Q:2

how i solved that: i took into account that {sum of no should be divisible(if A is taken into aaccount)-1}..clearly only option b satisfies that.

hi imhimanshu

hi imhimanshu

i don't understand why u opted for option 'b'. As,putting value of A=5,8 also make R.H.S divisible by 3.

then why option 'b' is the answer????????

Thanks for pointing the mistake..

I was applying some other logic and also there was some mistake in my calculation..
