The product of two successive even numbers is 6888. Which is the greater of the two numbers ?
Correct
Here, let the first even number be x.
Then, second even number is (x+2)
And x(x + 2) = 6888
(by splitting the middle term)
and second number is 84.
Hence, Greater number is 84.

The sum of two odd numbers is 38 and their product is 325. What is three times the larger number ?
Correct
Here, let the first odd number be x.
Then, second odd number is y.
Then x + y = 38
And x + y = 325
or x – y =12
By solving equations (i) and (ii), we get
2x = 50
Hence, Required number = 3*25 = 75

The average of four consecutive odd numbers is 36. What is the smallest of these numbers ?
Correct
Here, let the first odd number be x.
Second odd number is x + 2.
Third odd number is x – 2
Fourth odd number is x + 4
Now,
x + x + 2 + x + 2 + x + 4 = 4 * 36
or 4x + 4 = 4 * 36
Hence, smallest odd number
= 35 – 2 = 33
Incorrect
Here, let the first odd number be x.
Second odd number is x + 2.
Third odd number is x – 2
Fourth odd number is x + 4

Find the maximum number of girls, among whom 2923 bags and 3239 eyeliners can be distributed in such a way that each girl gets the same number of bags and eyeliners.
Correct
Here, we have to find maximum number. Hence, here we have to find out the HCF of 2923 and 3239.
So, find the HCF of these two numbers by factorization method.
i.e., 2923 = 1, 37, 79
3239 = 1, 41, 79
Therefore, HCF = 79
Hence, maximum number of girls = 79
