Must Do:Last Digit Concepts with Example




Concept: The last digit of any power
Last digit of any power follow a cycle pattern and repeat after a certain power at a time.



From the above explanation it is clear that after the power of four number of digit will be same.
So find out the last digit we divide the power of any number by 4.

        v The last digit of power of 1 is always 1
v  The last digit of power of 2 repeat in a cycle of 4, 8, 6, 2
v  The digits of powers of 3 repeat in a cycle of 9, 7, 1, 3
v  The last digit of power of 4 repeat in a cycle of 6, 4
v  The last digit of power of 5 & 6 is always same.
v  The last digit of power of 7 repeat in a cycle of 9, 3, 1, 7.
v  The last digit of power of 8 repeat in a cycle of 4, 2,6,8.
v  The digits of powers of 9 repeat in a cycle of 1,9.

Short Notes on Time and Distance

TIPS AND FORMULAS ON TIME AND DISTANCE: 1. Speed =   Distance/Time 2. Time =   Distance /Speed 3. Distance =  Speed x Time 4 . km/hr to m/s conversion: 1 kmph =   5/18 m/s 5.  m/s to km/hr conversion:   1 m/s =   18/5 m/s 6.  If the ratio of speeds of train A and B is a : b, then the ratio of time taken by them to cover the same distance =  b : a. 7.  If a man covers a certain distance at x km/hr and an equal distance at y km/hr. Then,the average speed during the whole journey is 2xy/(x + y) km/h 8 . The time taken by a train in passing a pole or standing man is the same as the time taken by the train to cover a distance equal to its own length. 9.  The time taken by a train of length 'L' metres in passing a stationary object of length 'B' metres is equal to the time taken by the train to cover a distance equal to  (L + B) m. 10.  If two trains are moving in the same directions at u m/s and v m...

Quant Short Tricks for Fraction Problems

Let us study some of the common methods of identifying out the largest or smallest of a given set of fractions which are useful for Mental Maths.  Type – 1 When the numerators are same and the denominators are different, the fraction with the largest denominator is the smallest. Have a look at the following example. Example:   Which of the following fractions is the smallest? (3/5) , (3/7) , (3/13), (3/8) Here, 13 is the largest denominator, so, (3/13) is the smallest fraction. 5 is the smallest denominator, hence (3/5) is the largest fraction. Here logic is very simple,  Situation: (i)  Assume that you are 5 Children in your family. Your Dad brought an Apple and mom cut it into 5 pieces and distributed among all the children including you. (1/5) Situation (ii)  : Assume that you are 8 Children in your family. Your Dad brought an Apple and mom cut it into 8 pieces and distributed among all the children inclu...
