Interesting things in maths::::THESE SMALL MATHEMATICS TRICKS CAN REALLY HELP YOU OUT IN CALCULATIONS::::::
1). If any two digit number is multiplied by (101), the product will have its last two digits same as its first
two digits.
Ex: Let the number be 56. When multiplied by 101, the product is 5656. i.e, 56 X 101= 5656.
Similarly, if any three digit number is multiplied by (1001), the product will have its last three digits same
as its first three digits.
Ex: Let the three digit number be 418. When multiplied by 1001, the product is 418418
2). A Strange Prime Number: The prime number 73,939,133 has a very strange property. If you keep
removing a digit from the right hand end of the number, each of the remaining numbers is also prime. It's the largest number known with this property. Take a look: 73,939,133 and 73,939,13 and 73,939,1 and 73,939 and 7, 393 and 739 and 73 and 7 are all prime!

▶▶▶ SOME QUICK MATHS FORMULAS ◀◀◀
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
1. Sum of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)/2
2. Sum of the squares of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6
3. Sum of the cubes of first n natural numbers = [n(n+1)/2] 2
4. Sum of first n natural odd numbers = n 2
5. Average = (Sum of items)/Number of items
Arithmetic Progression (A.P.) :-
An A.P. is of the form a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d, … where a is called the ‘first term’ and d is called the ‘common
difference’ 1. nth term of an A.P. tn = a + (n-1)d 2. Sum of the first n terms of an A.P. Sn = n/2[2a+(n-1)d] or Sn = n/2(first term + last term)
Geometrical Progression (G.P.) :- A G.P. is of the form a, ar, ar2, ar3, … where a is called the ‘first term’
and r is called the ‘common ratio’. 1. nth term of a G.P. tn = arn-1 2. Sum of the first n terms in a G.P. Sn = a|1-rn|/|1-r|
Permutations and Combinations :- nPr = n!/(n-r)! nPn = n! nP1 = n nCr = n!/(r! (n-r)!) nC1 = n nC0 = 1 =
nCn nCr = nCn-r nCr = nPr/r! Number of diagonals in a geometric figure of n sides = nC2-n
Tests of Divisibility :-
A number is divisible by 2 if it is an even number.
A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3.
A number is divisible by 4 if the number formed by the last two digits is divisible by 4.
A number is divisible by 5 if the units digit is either 5 or 0.
A number is divisible by 6 if the number is divisible by both 2 and 3.
A number is divisible by 8 if the number formed by the last three digits is divisible by 8.
A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of the digits is divisible by 9.
A number is divisible by 10 if the units digit is 0.
A number is divisible by 11 if the difference of the sum of its digits at odd places and the sum of its digits at even places, is divisible by 11.
H.C.F and L.C.M :- H.C.F stands for Highest Common Factor. The other names for H.C.F are Greatest
Common Divisor (G.C.D) and Greatest Common Measure (G.C.M). The H.C.F. of two or more numbers is the greatest number that divides each one of them exactly. The least number which is exactly divisible by each one of the given numbers is called their L.C.M. Two numbers are said to be co-prime if their H.C.F.
is 1. H.C.F. of fractions = H.C.F. of numerators/L.C.M of denominators L.C.M. of fractions = G.C.D. of numerators/H.C.F of denominators Product of two numbers = Product of their H.C.F. and L.C.M.
PERCENTAGES :- If A is R% more than B, then B is less than A by R / (100+R) * 100 If A is R% less
than B, then B is more than A by R / (100-R) * 100 If the price of a commodity increases by R%, then reduction in consumption, not to increase the expenditure is : R/(100+R)*100 If the price of a commodity decreases by R%, then the increase in consumption, not to decrease the expenditure is : R/(100-R)*100
PROFIT & LOSS :- Gain = Selling Price(S.P.) – Cost Price(C.P) Loss = C.P. – S.P. Gain % = Gain * 100 / C.P. Loss % = Loss * 100 / C.P. S.P. = (100+Gain%)/100*C.P. S.P. = (100-Loss%)/100*C.P. If CP(x), Gain(y), Gain%(z). Then y = x*z/100. [Same in case of Loss]
RATIO & PROPORTIONS :- The ratio a : b represents a fraction a/b. a is called antecedent and b is called consequent. The equality of two different ratios is called proportion. If a : b = c : d then a, b, c, d are in proportion. This is represented by a : b :: c : d. In a : b = c : d, then we have a* d = b * c. If a/b = c/d
then ( a + b ) / ( a – b ) = ( c + d ) / ( c – d ).
TIME & WORK :- If A can do a piece of work in n days, then A’s 1 day’s work = 1/n If A and B work together for n days, then (A+B)’s 1 days’s work = 1/n If A is twice as good workman as B, then ratio of
work done by A and B = 2:1
PIPES & CISTERNS :- If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours, then part of tank filled in one hour = 1/x If a pipe can empty a full tank in y hours, then part emptied in one hour = 1/y If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours, and
another pipe can empty the full tank in y hours, then on opening both the pipes, the net part filled in 1 hour = (1/x-1/y) if y>x the net part emptied in 1 hour = (1/y-1/x) if x>y
TIME & DISTANCE :- Distance = Speed * Time 1 km/hr = 5/18 m/sec 1 m/sec = 18/5 km/hr Suppose a
man covers a certain distance at x kmph and an equal distance at y kmph. Then, the average speed during the whole journey is 2xy/(x+y) kmph.
PROBLEMS ON TRAINS :- Time taken by a train x metres long in passing a signal post or a pole or a
standing man is equal to the time taken by the train to cover x metres. Time taken by a train x metres long in passing a stationary object of length y metres is equal to the time taken by the train to cover x+y metres. Suppose two trains are moving in the same direction at u kmph and v kmph such that u>v, then
their relative speed = u-v kmph. If two trains of length x km and y km are moving in the same direction at u kmph and v kmph, where u>v, then time taken by the faster train to cross the slower train = (x+y)/(u-v) hours. Suppose two trains are moving in opposite directions at u kmph and v kmph. Then, their relative
speed = (u+v) kmph. If two trains of length x km and y km are moving in the opposite directions at u kmph and v kmph, then time taken by the trains to cross each other = (x+y)/(u+v)hours. If two trains start at the same time from two points A and B towards each other and after crossing they take a and b hours in
reaching B and A respectively, then A’s speed : B’s speed = (√b : √a)
SIMPLE & COMPOUND INTERESTS :- Let P be the principal, R be the interest rate percent per annum, and N be the time period. Simple Interest = (P*N*R)/100 Compound Interest = P(1 + R/100)^N – P
Amount = Principal + Interest when rate of interest time n principal are constant den principal=(C.I. -S.I.)*(100/R)^N
LOGARITHMS :-
If a^m = x , then m = loga(x).
Properties : logx(x) = 1
logx(1) = 0
loga(x*y) = loga(x) + loga(y)
loga(x/y) = log ax – log ay
loga(x) = 1/logx(a)
loga(x p) = p(loga(x))
loga(x) = logb(x)/logb(a)
Note : Logarithms for base 1 does not exist.
AREA & PERIMETER :-
Shape Area Perimeter
Circle ∏ (Radius)2 , 2∏(Radius)
Square (side)2 4(side) Rectangle length*breadth 2(length+breadth) Area of a triangle = 1/2*Base*Height or Area of a triangle = √ (s(s-(s-b)(s-c)) where a,b,c are the lengths of the sides and s = (a+b+c)/2 Area of
