2. Find the value of y in the number 4y56 so as to make it divisible by 33 is
Solution
33=3×11
4+ y+ 5+6 15+ y
= = ⟵ for the rule of 3
3 3
= 4+6-9 = y–3 for the rule of 11
to be zero y –3=0 y =3
3. If 1568a356 is divisible by 88. Find a & b
Solution
88= 8×11 for 8, 356 should be divisible by 8
So, by inspection b 1 but b =2
And for 11, 1568a352 should be divisible by 11
So, 18– (12+a) = 6–a to be zero
a =6, b = 2

Exercise
Percents
The word percent means hundredth. We use the symbol % to express the word ' percent'.
i. What is 45% of 200?
ii. 90 is 45% of what number?
iii. 90 is what percent of 200?
Key -1: For any positive numbers a, b
i a% of 100 is a
ii. a % of b = b % of a
actual increase
Key – 2 (a) The percent increase of a quantity = ×100
original amount
actual decrease
(b) The percent decrease of a quantity = ×100
original amount
Key -3: If a < b percent increases in going from a to b always greater than the percent decreases in going b to
a
Key -4 a) To increase a number by k % multiply it by ( 1+k%)
b) To decrease a number by k % multiply it by ( 1–k%)
Key-5 An increase of k% followed by a decreases of k% equal to a decreases of k % followed by an increases
of 5% and is always less than the original value. The original value is never regained.
Key -6 a) A decreases of a % followed by a decreases of b% always results in a smaller decreases than a
single decreases of (a+b)%
b) A increases of a % followed by a increases of b% always results in a larger increases than a single
increases of (a+b)%
c) A increases (or decreases) of a % followed by another increase (or decreases) of a% is never the
same as a single increases (or decreases) 2a%
Key 7 a) If a number is the result of increasing another number by k%, to find the original number divide by
(1+k%)
b) If a number is the result of decreasing another number by k%, to find the original number divide it
by (1-k%)

Probability
Independent Events: Two events are paid to be independent if the occurrence of one not depends upon
the other if a set of events E,E 2………….. En for independent events P (F, E = E3………….. En)
= P+ (E1) ……… P (En)
Mutual Exclusive Events: A set of events is said to be mutually exclusive if occurrence of one of them
precludes the occurrence of any of the remaining events
If a set of events E, E2 ………….. En
For mutually exclusive events. Here P (E,E2…….En) = then P ( E, E2 ……En) = P ( E1 )+ P ( E2 )+
