Quantitative Aptitude: Simplification Questions Set 20

Directions: What value should come in place of the x in the following questions? 

  1. (√5 – √10)2 + (√2 + 5)2 = x3 – 22
    A) 3
    B) 5
    C) 8
    D) 7
    E) 4
    View Answer
      Option E
    Solution:
    (√5 – √10)2 = √52 + √102 – 2*√5*√10 = 5 + 10 – 2*√5*√2*√5 = 15 – 10√2
    (√2 + 5)2 = 2 + 25 + 10√2
    So 15 – 10√2  + 27 + 10√2  = x3 – 22
    15+27+22 = x3
  2. 55% of √2116 ÷ 0.01 = x × 20

    Solution:
    55/100 * 46/0.01 = 20x
    55 * 46 = 20x
  3. √(122 × 16 ÷ 24 + 193 + 7 × 5) = x2
    A) 3√2
    B) 2√2
    C) 4√2
    D) 5√2
    E) None of these
    View Answer
      Option A
    Solution:
    12*12*16/24 = 96
    193 + 7 × 5 = 193 + 35 = 228
    √(96+228) = x2
    18 = x2
  4. √31.36 ÷ √0.64 × 252 = x2 × 36    
    A) 11
    B) -8
    C) 49
    D) 81
    E) -7

    5.6/0.8 * 252 = x× 36
    x2  = 49  
  5. (1.69)4 ÷ (2197 ÷ 1000)3 × (0.13 × 10)3 = (1.3)x-2
    A) 2

    B) 5
    C) 3
    D) 4
    E) 0
    View Answer
      Option D
    Solution:
    (1.69)4  = (1.3)8
    (2.197)3 = (1.3)9
    (1.3)8 / (1.3)9 * (1.3)3 = (1.3)2
    (1.3)2 = (1.3)x-2
    2 = x-2, so x = 4

  2. I have noticed that of all types of insurance, health care insurance is the most marked by controversy because of the clash between the insurance plan company’s need to remain profitable and the buyer’s need to have insurance.
