This Productisa Mystery

ProblemThe numberA8is at wo-digitnumber withtensdigitAand units(ones) digit8. Similarly, 3B is at wo-digitnumber withtensdigit3and units digitB. WhenA8is multipliedby 3B, theresult isthe four-digitn umb erC730. IfA,B, andCare eachdifferen tdigitsfrom0to9, determinethe values ofA,B, andC.

Solution

In am ultiplicationquestiontherearethreeparts: themultiplier,multiplicandandproduct. In ourproblem, A8is them ultiplier,3Bis them ultiplicand,andC730is thepro duct. The unitsdigit ofthe product C730is 0.The unitsdigit ofa product isequal tothe units digit ofthe resultobtained by multiplying theunitsdigitsof themultiplier andm ultiplicand. So8Bmustequal an umb erwithunitsdigit0.Theon lyc hoicesfor Bare 0and 5,since no other singledigit multiplied by8pro ducesanum ber endinginzero. However,ifB= 0, theunits digitof thepro ductis 0and theremainingthreedigits ofthe product,C73, arepro ducedbym ultiplying 3A8. But3A8producesa num berendingin4, not 3as required.Therefore B6= 0andBmustequal 5.S othe multiplicandis35. SinceA8is at wo-digitnumber, thelargestpossiblevalueforAis9. Since9835 =3430 , the largest possiblevalueof Cis3. Also,the product C730is afour-digit num bersoC6= 0. Therefore, theonly possible valuesforCare1;2;and3. Wewillexamine each possibilit yfor C. IfC= 1, thenC730becomes1730. Wewan tA835 =1 730. Alternatively,wew ant

173035 =A8. But173035:= 49:4, whichisnot awh ol en umber.Therefore,C6= 1.

IfC= 2, thenC730becomes2730. Wewan tA835 =2730 . Alternatively,wew ant

273035 =A8. Since273035 =78 , whichisa wholen umb er.Th erefore,C= 2producesa

validv alueforA, namelyA= 7. IfC= 3, thenC730becomes3730. Wewan tA835 =3730 . Alternatively,wew ant

373035 =A8. But373035:= 106:6, whichisnot awhole num ber. Therefore,C6= 3.

Weha veexaminedevery validpossibilit yforCand foundonly onesolution. Therefore, A= 7, B= 5andC= 2is theonly valid solution.Wecan easilyv erifythat7835 =2730 .

HomestyleLemon Drink

ProblemArestauranto wnerwasexp erimentingwiththe tasteofherhomestylelemon drink.She started with60 litresof water. Sheremo ved15litres ofthe waterandreplaceditwith 15litres of purelemon juice.After thoroughlystirring thenew mixture,she discov eredthat itw asto o lemony.So shere mov ed10litresofthenewmixtureand replac edit with1 0litres ofw ater. She thoroughlystirred themixture andconcluded thatthe newmixture was justrigh t. Determine theratio ofpure le monjuice towaterinthenal 60litre mixture.

Solution

Weneed todetermine theamoun tof purelemon juiceandthea mount ofw ater in thenal mixture. The ownerstartswith 60litres ofw aterand nolemon juice.After removing15 litres ofw aterandadding15 litresof purelemo njuice, shehas 15litres ofpure lemon juiceand 6015 =45 litres ofw ater.So1560 =14 ofthe newmixture is pure lemonjuice and 4560
=34 ofthe newmixture isw ater.

She thenremo ves10litresofthe newmixture,

14 ofwhichispure lemon juiceand 34
ofwhichis water. Sotheowner remov es 14 10= 104
=52 litresof purelemon juice and 34
10= 304
=152 litresof water.

Before addinganother 10litr esof watershehas 1552

=302 52
=252 litresof pure lemonjuice and45152 =902 152
=752 litresof water. After addingthe nal10 litres ofw ater,shehas10 +752 =202 +752
=952 litresof water.

The nalratio ofpure lemonjuice tow ateris

252
:952 =25 :95 =5 :19 : Therefore, thenal ratioof purelemon juiceto wa ter inthe homestyle lemon drink is5 :19 .

Wecan easilyjustify why thispattern continues.If ap ow erendsin125,then the last3 digitsof the nextp owerare thesame asthelastthreedigitsofthe product1255 =62 5. Thatis, thelast threedigits of thenext po werare625. If ap owerendsin625,thenthe las t3 digitsof thenext po werarethesameas the lastthree digitsof thepro duct6255 =3 125.

A GrapeProblem

ProblemThere aresev eralbowls containingvariousamounts ofgrapeson atable.When12 ofthebo wls eachhad 8more grapes addedto them,themean(a verage) num ber ofgrap esp erbowl increased by6.H ow manybowlsof grapesareon thetable?

Solution

Solution 1:

The meann umberofgrapesper bo wlisequalto thetotalnum berofgrapes dividedb ythe numberofbo wls.S othemeannumb erofgrapes per bo wlincreasesby6ifthetotal num berof grapesadded dividedb ythe number ofb owlsisequalto6. If 12of theb owls eachhad8moregrap esaddedtothem, thenthe total num berofgrap es added is128 =9 6. Thus,96 div idedbythenumb erofb owls equals6.Since9616 =6 , thereare 16b owls.

Solution 2:

This solutionuses variables torepresentth eunkno wnvalues. Weare toldthat themean num ber ofgrap esperbowlincreasedb y6. Wecanwrite thisas follows. old mean+ 6= new mean The meanis equalto the totaln umberof grap esdividedbythenumb erof bowls.Letbbethe numberofbo wls. Letgbethe totaln umb erofgrapesthatwereoriginallyin theb owls.If12 of theb owlseachhad8 moregrapesadded tothem, thenthe totaln umberof grapes addedis

128 =96 . Nowwe canrewriteourequation abo ve using variables.

gb + 6= g+ 96b

Wecan separatethe fraction onthe rightside.

gb + 6= gb +96b

Nowif we subtract

gb from bothsidesof the equation,w eareleftwith anequation thathas only onev ariable.Wecan thensolvethis equation. 6 = 96b

Multiply bothsidesb yb:6b= 96

Divide bothsidesb y6:b=966

b= 16

Therefore, thereare 16b owls.
