If 3x+4y+5z= 20, then what is the max value of x^2*y^2*z?

(given that x,y,z >0)

Simarpal Singh See, we have to use AM>=G.M

We can write 3x+4y+5z=20 as
1.5x+1.5x+2y+2y+5z =20 (Figure out why )
Now, consider these 5 terms given above, their AM is equal to 20/5=4
And since GM<=AM
(1.5x*1.5x*2y*2y*5z)^(1/5)<=4
Now 1.5*1.5*2*2*5* (x^2*y^2*z)<=4^5
yahan se x^2*y^2*z ki max. value nikal jaegi which is 22.75

Abhinav Sachdeva Product will be maximum when x/2=y/2=z[Because we have to maximize

x^2*y^2*z
That means if we have to make sum=20,then we should divide it like 8+8+4 [Ratio 2:2:1]
We are given 3x+4y+5z=20
To make first term 8,x=8/3. To make 2nd term=8,y=2. To make 3rd term=4,z=4/5.
=> x=8/3,y=2,z=4/5

two last digit that not zero

from 90! Is...
Nitin Gupta We will use the fact that for any integer n ,
(5n+1)(5n+2)(5n+3)(5n+4) = 24 (mod5) = -1(mod25)
First, we find that the number of factors of 10 in 90! is equal to 21. Let N = 90!/10^21. The n we want
is therefore the last two digits of N , or N (mod 100) . Since there is clearly an excess of factors of 2, we
know that N = 0 (mod 4) , so it remains to find N (mod 25) .
If we divide N by 5^21 by taking out all the factors of 5 in N , we can write N as M/2^21 where M=
1.2.3.4.1.6.7.8.9.289.18, where every multiple of 5 is replaced by the number with all its
factors of 5 removed. Specifically, every number in the form 5n is replaced by n, and every number in
the form 25n is replaced by n.
The number M can be grouped as follows:
M = [(1.2.3.4)(6.7.8.9)(86.87.88.89)] . [(1.2.3.4)(6.7.8.9)(16.17.18)] . [(1.2.3) ]
Using the identity at the beginning of the solution, we can reduce M to
M = (-1)^18 . (-1)^3 (16.17.18).(1.2.3) = 1.-21.6 = -1 (mod25) = 24 (mod 25)
Using the fact that 2^10 =1024 = -1 (mod25) we can deduce that 2^21 = 2(mod 25) . Therefore N =
M/2^21 = (24/2) (mod 25) = 12 (mod 25) .
Finally, combining with the fact that N = 0(mod4) yields n= 12(answer- option A).

Given 6 colours, in how many ways can you colour a cube with the given colours such
each face has a different colour? A colour combination that results due to the rotation of
another cube will be considered same.
Nitin Gupta Let the six faces be a, b, c, d, e and f. With face a opposite face b, there are
six arrangements for the other four colors around the cube: cdef, cdfe, cedf, cefd, cfde
and cfed. Likewise for face a opposite face c; face a opposite face d; face a opposite face

e; face a opposite face f; all have six arrangements for the remaining four colors. Hence
the total is 5 x 6 = 30 arrangements
Chandrasekhar Singh Colour any one face with any one colour to start with. Now the
opposite face to this already painted face can be coloured in 5 ways. Each of these 5
ways will give a distinct cube i.e no amount of rotation will make any two identical. We
are left with four faces which can be considered a circular arrangement. So number of
ways to colour them is 3! = 6 ways. Total ways = 5*6=30

Any easy method for calculating number not divisible by 2,3,4,5 between 200
and 300 ? http://www.pagalguy.com/forums/quantitative/number-system-prob-t1976/

Anurag Mathur Any number divisible by 2, is divisible by 4 as well... so forget about divisibility
by 4..
Every number divisible by 5, ends with 0 or 5.
Ones that end with 0 are divisible by 2, so forget these,...... ones that end with 5 are 205,215...295, total
10, and out of these, 225,225+30, 225+60 are divisible by 3, so remove these, as of now divisible only
by 5 = 7
divisible by 2=51
divisible by 3 = 33
divisible by 6 = 16
only by 2 or 3 = 51+33-16 = 68
only by 2 or 3 or 5= 68+7 = 75
total not divisible by these = 100-75= 25
Mohit Jain Thanks Anurag Mathur just make little correction 101-75=26 is answer..
Indrajeet Singh (300-210)(1/2)(2/3)(4/5)
=>90*4/15=24-1=23
nw btwn 200 and 210,
3 such no.s ie., 203,206,209
so total 23+3=26
Indrajeet Singh Just an application of euler.
Sri Krishna Indrajeet why did you start from 210 ?
Indrajeet Singh Coz we are considering 2,3,5
lcm=30,
so those no.s need to be a multiple of 30, thats y
Chandrasekhar Singh In any set of 2*3*5 i.e. 30 numbers, the number of numbers not divisible by 2, 3,
5 is (2 - 1)(3 - 1)(5 - 1) i.e. 8. Thus from 1 to 30, there are 8 such numbers; from 31 to 60, there are
further 8 and so on.
From 1 to 210, there are 8*7 = 56 such numbers. Enumerating from 200 to 210, there are 2 such
numbers. Thus from 1 to 199, there are 54 such numbers.
From 1 to 300, there are 8*10 = 80 such numbers.
From 200 to 300, there are 80 - 54 = 26.
Else as Indrajeet Singh has explained beautifully, we can also directly count in the range 210 to 300.
Chandrasekhar Singh Indrajeet Singh correcting the oversight, 90*4/15 = 24. There will be 24
numbers co-prime to 2, 3, 5 from 210 to 300.
And from 200 to 209, there are 2 such numbers 203, 209.
So total is still 24 + 2 = 26.
Indrajeet Singh sir ya bt i did -1 as no.s is asked between 200 and 300, so to eliminate 300 i did dat..
so shudnt it b 25 then?
Chandrasekhar Singh 24 are the number of co-prime to 2, 3 & 5. So 300 is not counted in the 24. So
we do not have to subtract a number which is not counted.
