Q1
In how many ways can 7 beads be strung into necklace ?
- A. 2520
B. 5040
C. 720
D. 360
No of way in Necklace = [latex]\frac {(n-1)!}{2} = \frac {6!}{2}[/latex]
= [latex]\frac {720}{2} = 360[/latex]
Q2
Find the no of 3 digit numbers such that at least one of the digit is 6 (with repetitions) ?
- A. 252
B. 345
C. 648
D. 560
Total no of 3 digit number = [latex]9 \times 10 \times 10 = 900 [/latex]
No of 3 digit number- none of the digit is [latex]6 = 8 \times 9 \times 9 = 648 [/latex] v
No of 3 digit number – at least one digit is 6 = 900 - 648 = 252
Q3
In how many ways can 7 girls and 4 boys stand in a row so that no 2 boys are together ?
- A. 8467200
B. 9062700
C. 7407000
D. 8407200
No of ways = [latex]7! \times {8}^{P}_{4}[/latex]
7! = 5040
[latex]{8}^{P}_{4} = 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 = 1680[/latex]
No of ways = [latex]5040 \times 1680 = 8467200[/latex]
Q4
How many numbers can be formed with the digits 1, 7, 2, 5 without repetition ?
- A. 89
B. 56
C. 64
D. 72
1 digit number = 4
2 digit no = [latex]4 \times 3 = 12[/latex]
3 digit no = [latex]4 \times 3 \times 2 = 24[/latex]
4 digit no = [latex]4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1 = 24[/latex]
Total = 4 + 12 + 24 + 24 = 64

- A. 243
B. 512
C. 729
