Q. 1 A nine-digit number, 256463127, undergoes a transformation where even digits are reduced by 2 and odd digits are increased by 2. After this transformation, what is the product of the digit in the fifth position from the left and the digit in the second position from the right?
Check Solution
Ans: A
Explanation: The original number is 256463127. Let’s apply the transformation:
– 2 (even) becomes 2 – 2 = 0
– 5 (odd) becomes 5 + 2 = 7
– 6 (even) becomes 6 – 2 = 4
– 4 (even) becomes 4 – 2 = 2
– 6 (even) becomes 6 – 2 = 4
– 3 (odd) becomes 3 + 2 = 5
– 1 (odd) becomes 1 + 2 = 3
– 2 (even) becomes 2 – 2 = 0
– 7 (odd) becomes 7 + 2 = 9
The transformed number is 074245309. The digit in the fifth position from the left is 4. The digit in the second position from the right is 0. The product of these two digits is 4 * 0 = 0.
