Some riders
• Not meant for the Mathematicians!• For those who are “scared” of Math• Some of the methods discussed are strictly for
fun, yet may give astonishing results

Some Fundamentals of MCQ
• All choices except one are wrong• Framing the wrong choices takes just one
minute!– Paired choices– Units– Direction
![Page 4: CTET Jan 2012 Paper I Math Discussion](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081420/555deb52d8b42a192c8b57dc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Select one:• a. 9:59 A.M. • b. 10:01 A.M. • c. 9:59 P.M. • d. 9:57 A.M.
Choice Pair!
Then, three choices are A.M. while one is P.M.!
Now, if 9:59 A.M. is your correct answer, what choices would you frame?

Select one:• a. 9:59 A.M. • b. 10:01 A.M. • c. 9:59 P.M. • d. 9:57 A.M.
What time is 4 hours 59 minutes before 2:58 P.M.?

In which of the following divisions, will the remainder be more than the remainder you get when you divide 176 by 3?Select one:• a. 174 ÷ 4 • b. 175 ÷ 3 • c. 176 ÷ 2 • d. 173 ÷ 5
![Page 7: CTET Jan 2012 Paper I Math Discussion](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081420/555deb52d8b42a192c8b57dc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Remainders
• 176 ÷ 3 Maximum remainder is 2.• Only one correct answer.• To check, start with the highest divisor, that is,
5. • 173 ÷ 5 170 is a multiple, so remainder is 3.
![Page 8: CTET Jan 2012 Paper I Math Discussion](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081420/555deb52d8b42a192c8b57dc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Remainders…some more fundas
• Divisibility rule also gives remainder (?)• 176 ÷ 3
• 1+7+6=14; 1+4=5• Remainder will be 5 ÷ 3, that is, 2.
• Are there more divisibility rules than you know of?
![Page 9: CTET Jan 2012 Paper I Math Discussion](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081420/555deb52d8b42a192c8b57dc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
More divisibility rules
• 11: Keep subtracting the last digit from the number to get a 0
• 31: Keep subtracting thrice the last digit from the number to get a 0
• 41: Keep subtracting 4 x the last digit from the number to get a 0
Can you derive more now? Is there an exception?http://mathforum.org/dr.math/faq/faq.divisibleto50.html
