(36785)^2350 +(96387)^350 What is the Unit Digit in the above mentioned expression ?

short cut:

1st portion:untit digit=>
5^2350 only considered power number:(2350-1)/4=remainder 1
5^1+remainder=5^1+1=5^2=25
so unit digit =>5

2nd portion :unit digit=>
7^350 only considered power number:(350-1)/4=remainder 1
7^1+remainder=7^1+17^2=49
so unit digit=>9

Answer=1st portion unit digit+2nd portion Unit Digit
==> 5+9=14

Answer is 4

(Important:(Any Power number-1)/4)
If a^2+b^2=117 and ab=54 then find the value of a+b/a-b.

Answer:

(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab
= 117+2*54=225
=> a+b=15


(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab
= 117-2*54=9
=> a-b=3



then a+b/a-b
=15/3=5
A Worker agreeing to finish a work in 150 days, employed 75 men each working 8 hours daily. After 90 days, only 2/7 of the work was completed. Increasing the number of men by ________ each working now for 10 hours daily, the work can be completed in time.



Answer is 150 men.

Explanation :

1 day work = 2/(7*90)
1 hour work=2/(7*90*8)
1 man work=2/(7*90*8*75)

The Remaing work 5/7 has to be completed in 60 days , because the total number of days allowed for the completion of the work is 150 days.

so we have ,

(2 * 10 * x * 60) / (7 * 90 * 8 * 75) = 5/7
where x is the number of men working after the 90th day.

We get x = 225

Since we have 75 men already,

Answer = 225- 75
It is enough to add only 150 men.
