FACTS AND FORMULAE
I..Numeral : In Hindu
Arabic system, we use ten symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 called digits
to represent any number.
A group of digits, denoting a
number is called a numeral.
We represent a number, say 689745132
as shown below :

II Place Value or Local Value of a Digit in a
Numeral :
In the above
numeral :
Place value
of 2 is (2 x 1) = 2; Place value of 3 is (3 x 10) = 30;
Place value
of 1 is (1 x 100) = 100 and so on.
Place value
of 6 is 6 x 108 = 600000000
III.Face
Value : The face value of a digit
in a numeral is the value of the digit
itself at whatever place it may be. In the above numeral, the
face value of 2 is 2; the face
value of 3 is 3 and so on.
IV.TYPES OF NUMBERS
1.Natural
Numbers : Counting numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,..... are called natural
numbers.
2.Whole
Numbers : All counting numbers together with zero form the set of
whole
numbers. Thus,
(i) 0 is the only whole number
which is not a natural number.
(ii) Every natural number is a
whole number.
3.Integers : All
natural numbers, 0 and negatives of counting numbers i.e.,
{…, -3,-2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3,…..} together form the set of integers.
(i) Positive
Integers : {1, 2, 3, 4, …..} is the set of
all positive integers.
(ii) Negative
Integers : {- 1, - 2, - 3,…..} is the set
of all negative integers.
(iii) Non-Positive
and Non-Negative Integers : 0 is neither positive nor
negative.
So, {0, 1, 2, 3,….} represents the set of non-negative integers,
while
{0, -1,-2,-3,…..} represents
the set of non-positive integers.
4.
Even Numbers : A number
divisible by 2 is called an even number, e.g., 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, etc.
5. Odd
Numbers : A number not
divisible by 2 is called an odd number. e.g., 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, etc.
6.
Prime Numbers : A number
greater than 1 is called a prime number, if it has exactly two factors, namely
1 and the number itself.
Prime numbers upto 100 are : 2, 3, 5, 7, 11,
13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43,
47,
53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97.
Prime numbers Greater than 100 : Let p be a
given number greater than 100. To find out whether it is prime or not, we use
the following method :
Find a whole number nearly greater than the
square root of p. Let k > *jp. Test whether p is divisible by any prime
number less than k. If yes, then p is not prime. Otherwise, p is prime.
e.g,,We have to find whether 191 is a prime
number or not. Now, 14 > V191.
Prime numbers less than 14 are 2, 3, 5, 7,
11, 13.
191 is not divisible by any of them. So, 191
is a prime number.
7.Composite Numbers : Numbers greater than 1 which are not prime,
are known as composite numbers, e.g., 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12.
Note : (i)
1 is neither prime nor composite.
(ii) 2 is the only even number
which is prime.
(iii) There are 25 prime numbers
between 1 and 100.
8.
Co-primes : Two numbers
a and b are said to be co-primes, if their H.C.F. is 1. e.g., (2, 3), (4, 5),
(7, 9), (8, 11), etc. are co-primes,

progression.
1. Arithmetic Progression (A.P.) : If each term of a progression differs from
its preceding term by a constant, then such a progression is called an
arithmetical progression. This constant difference is called the common
difference of the A.P.
An A.P. with first term a and common
difference d is given by a, (a + d), (a + 2d),(a + 3d),.....
The nth term of this A.P. is given by Tn
=a (n - 1) d.
The sum of n terms of this A.P.

Ex. 16. Which digits should come in place of
* and $ if the number 62684*$ is divisible by both 8 and 5 ?
Sol.
Since the given number is divisible by 5, so
0 or 5 must come in place of $. But, a number ending with 5 is never divisible
by 8. So, 0 will replace $.
Now, the number formed by the last three
digits is 4*0, which becomes divisible by 8, if * is replaced by 4.
Hence, digits in place of * and $ are 4 and 0
respectively.
Ex. 17. Show that 4832718 is divisible by 11.
Sol. (Sum
of digits at odd places) - (Sum of digits at even places)

\Respective remainders are 6, 4, 2.
Ex. 26. Find
the remainder when 231 is divided by 5.
Sol. 210
= 1024. Unit digit of 210 x 210 x 210 is 4 [as
4 x 4 x 4 gives unit digit 4].
\Unit digit of 231 is 8.
Now, 8 when divided by 5, gives 3 as remainder.
Hence, 231 when divided by 5, gives 3 as remainder.
Ex. 27. How many numbers between 11 and 90
are divisible by 7 ?
Sol. The required numbers are
14, 21, 28, 35, .... 77, 84.
This is an A.P. with a = 14 and d = (21 - 14) = 7.
Let it contain n terms.
Then, Tn = 84
=> a + (n - 1) d = 84
=> 14 + (n - 1) x 7 = 84 or n = 11.
\Required number of terms = 11.
Ex. 28. Find
the sum of all odd numbers upto 100.
Sol. The given numbers are 1,
3, 5, 7, ..., 99.
This is an A.P. with a = 1 and d = 2.
Let it contain n terms. Then,
1 + (n - 1) x 2 = 99 or n = 50.
\Required sum = n (first term + last
term)
2
= 50 (1
+ 99) = 2500.

Ex. 29. Find
the sum of all 2 digit numbers divisible by 3.
Sol. All 2 digit numbers divisible by 3 are :
12, 51, 18, 21, ..., 99.
This is an A.P. with a = 12 and d = 3.
Let it contain n terms. Then,
12 + (n - 1) x 3 = 99 or n = 30.
\Required sum = 30 x (12+99) = 1665.

Ex.30.How many terms are there in
2,4,8,16……1024?
Sol.Clearly 2,4,8,16……..1024 form a GP. With a=2 and r = 4/2 =2.
Let the number of terms be n .
Then
2 x 2n-1 =1024 or 2n-1 =512 = 29.
\n-1=9 or n=10.
Ex. 31. 2 + 22 + 23 +
... + 28 = ?
Sol.
Given series is a G.P. with a = 2, r = 2 and n = 8.
\sum = a(rn-1)
= 2 x (28 –1) = (2 x 255) =510
