222 ^222 divided by 7 wt is remainder
Asked In TCS
222=31*7+5
31*1+5 when divided by 7 gives 5 as remainder

=>5^222
now 5^2^111
=>25^111
(7*3+4)^111 when devided by 7 gives 4 as remainder

=>4^2^55*4^1=16^55*4^1
=>(7*2+2)^55 when devided by 7 gives 2 as remainder
=>2^55*4=2^54*2*4=2^54*8=8^18*8

hence 8^18*8=(7+1)^18*8 when divided by 7 gives 1^18*8
=>8

and when 8 is divided by 7 gives 1 as remainder.

Hence answer will be 1.
1700 lottery tickets are sold for $25 each, and one grand prize of $4100 is awarded. If you purchase one ticket, find your expectation per ticket.
expectation= prob of wining * rewards
here,
expectation =1/1700 * 4100 = 2.41
but ticket cost $25 each
now expectation here = 2.41 - 25 = -22.59(ans)
1! + 2! + ��. + 50!=?
Asked In TCS
1! = 1 (units digit 1)
2! = 2 (units digit 2)
3! = 6 (units digit 6)
4! = 24 (units digit 4)
5!, 6!.... the units digit will be 0 because all the terms will include 5x2=10

units digit of 1!+2!+... will be 1+2+6+4+0+0+0.... = 3



how many different digit number are there which have digit 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, such that digit 1 appears exactly once

its answer is 4c1 *7^3 how? why 4c1 is use here .?
Digit 1 can appear in any of the 4 positions of a 4 digit number => 4C1

Further,as repetition is allowed,the othe three digits can have any of the remaining 7 numbers

So total no of different 4 digit numbers possible = 4C1 * 7 * 7 *7 = 4C1 * 7^3
3. (209*144)^2 + (209*209)+(209*144)+(144*144) = ? a)905863729 b)905368729 c)905729368 d)65
Answer will be a)905863729 by digit sum method

. A car manufacturer produces only red and blue TCS Models which come out of the final testing area at random. What are the odds that five consecutive cars of same color will come throughthe test area at any one time?
p(5 consecutive cars of same color)=p(5 red)+p(5 blue)
=1/2^5+1/2^5
=1/16
Metal strip of width �x� cm. 2 metal strips are placed one over the other, then the combine length of 2 strips is �y�. If �z� strips are placed in that manner. What is the final width of that arrangement?
as we observe in question that when 2 metal strips are placed one over the other then combine length is 2 but width doesnt change so any many no. of strip u place over the metal length only changes but not the width so ans is X
