Question 1

If R is an integer between 1 & 9, P - R = 2370, what is the value of R?
I. P is divisible by 4.
II. P is divisible by 9.

Solution

Given: P - R = 2370
or P = 2370 + R ;
So if we consider only 1st statement, R can be 2 or 6 as 2372 and 2376 both will be divisible by 4.
And if we consider only 2nd statement, R will be having an absolute value of 6 as 2376 will be divisible by 6.
Hence by taking only 2nd statement into consideration, we can find unique value of R.
So answer will be B).

Concept: Try to find a way with which we can find an absolute/unique answer.
