First off, it sounds strange to learn that each shelf holds only 8 books each.

But if that's the case, then the library has (14,240 books) / (8 books per shelf), or 1,780 shelves.

The number N = 100+100^2+100^3 + ... +100^n . Find the least possible value of n such that the number N is divisible by 11.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

It's a big alphabet, why confuse us with N and n?

Anyway, this one is a bit easier than it looks.  We're going to look at it mod 11, meaning we're only interested in the remainders when we divide by 11.  The nice thing about multiplication and addition is if we're going to take the remainder at the end, we can also take the remainders at the beginning and along the way and get the same answer, with smaller numbers.

That all sounds very complicated.  It's easier explained.

100 =9*11 +1 so has remainder 1 when divided by 11.  So if we multiply by 100 that's not going to change the remainder when we divided by 11; it's like multiplying by 1.

So 100, 100^2, 100^3, etc all have remainder 1 when divided by 11.  So we need to add up 11 of them to get a number that's divisible by 11.

Answer: 11

Rasek [7]

Answer:

1)  3/20

2)  2/5

3)  45

Step-by-step explanation:

2) P(not Pink) = 8/20 which reduces to 2/5

3) probability of blue is 3/20 which is 15/100; if you multiply the numerator and denominator by 3 you get 45/300

All of the following are equivalent except<br> A. 5 is to 3<br> B. 45/27<br> C. 15/5<br> D. 7.5:4.5
Eduardwww [97]
I haven’t done this before but I’m sure it’s C. 15/5

5 is equal to 3.

45/27 is also equal to 5/3 (Divided both 45 and 27 by 9)

7.5:4.5 is also equal to 5:3 (Divided both 7.5 and 4.5 by 1.5)

15/5 is not equal because if you simplify it, it would become 3:1 (Divided both 15 and 5 by 5).
