Mastering Number System for SSC Exams

Number System is one of the most frequently asked topics in the Mathematics section across SSC CGL, CHSL, CPO, MTS, and GD exams. It tests your ability to solve number system concepts such as fractions, decimals, divisibility, place value and recurring decimals.

Core Formulas

  • Fraction comparison: Convert to decimals or common denominator; the smallest/largest fraction is identified by value.
  • Divisibility: A number is divisible by 9 if digit sum is divisible by 9; by 11 if alternating digit-sum difference is a multiple of 11.
  • Recurring decimal: 0.3 with bar = 1/3; use 9s in denominator for pure recurrence, 0s+9s for mixed.
  • Unit digit: Find the cyclic pattern of the last digit for powers (e.g. 2,4,8,6 for base ending in 2).
Pro Tip for Speed: Practise daily with previous year SSC questions to build speed and accuracy before attempting full mocks.

Detailed Answer Explanations

  1. Q1. Answer: (A) 3\sqrt{3}
    3\sqrt{3} = 1.7321.732, 32\sqrt[3]{} 2 ≈ 1.261.26, 2\sqrt{2} ≈ 1.4141.414, 34\sqrt[3]{} 4 ≈ 1.587.1.587. The smallest is 32.\sqrt[3]{} 2.
  2. Q2. Answer: (C) 6(1/6)6^{(1/6)}
    LCM of 22, 33, 11, 66 = 6.6. 3(1/2)3^{(1/2)} = 3(3/6)3^{(3/6)} = (27)(1/6)(27)^{(1/6)}, 2(1/2)2^{(1/2)} = 2(3/6)2^{(3/6)} = (8)(1/6)(8)^{(1/6)}, 11 = 1(6/6)1^{(6/6)} = (1)(1/6)(1)^{(1/6)}, 6(1/6)6^{(1/6)} = (6)(1/6).(6)^{(1/6)}. The greatest is 3(1/2).3^{(1/2)}.
  3. Q3. Answer: (C) 11
    5A75A7 + 335335 = 8B2.8B2. 8B28B2 is divisible by 33, so 88 + B + 22 = multiple of 3.3. B = 55 or 8.8. If B = 55, then 335335 + 5A75A7 = 852852, so A = 1.1. If B = 88, then 335335 + 5A75A7 = 882882, so A = 4.4. Hence, largest value of A = 4.4.
  4. Q4. Answer: (C) 77
    119119 is a multiple of 17.17. Required remainder = remainder obtained on dividing 1919 by 1717 = 2.2.
  5. Q5. Answer: (B) 33, 22
    Let the number be x. x = 4y4y + 11, y = 5z5z + 44 ⇒ x = 4(5z)4(5z) + 44 + 11 = 20z20z + 17.17. Dividing x by 55: 20z20z + 1717 = 5(4z)5(4z) + 33 + 2.2. Then dividing 4z4z + 33 by 44: remainder 3.3. So remainders are 22, 3.3.
  6. Q6. Answer: (A) 3939
    The middle number (4th) is 33.33. So the numbers are 2727, 2929, 3131, 3333, 3535, 3737, 39.39. The largest is 39.39.
  7. Q7. Answer: (A) 1003710037
    The smallest 5-digit number is 10000.10000. Remainder on dividing 1000010000 by 123123 is 37.37. Required number = 1000010000 + (123)(123) - 3737 = 10086.10086.
  8. Q8. Answer: (A) 3636
    Remainder = 4.4. Divisor = 33 × 44 = 12.12. Divisor = 44 × Quotient ⇒ Quotient = 124\frac{12}{4} = 3.3. Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder = 1212 × 33 + 44 = 40.40.
  9. Q9. Answer: (A) 44
    Since 5656 is a multiple of 88, the remainder is obtained by dividing 2929 by 88, which is 5.5.
  10. Q10. Answer: (A) 10101010
    Number = xyxyxyxy = xy × 1000010000 + xy × 100100 + xy = xy(10000 + 100100 + 11 = xy × 10101.10101.
  11. Q11. Answer: (C) 1123\frac{11}{23}
    825\frac{8}{25} = 0.320.32, 723\frac{7}{23} ≈ 0.300.30, 1123\frac{11}{23} ≈ 0.480.48, 1453\frac{14}{53} ≈ 0.26.0.26. Hence 1453\frac{14}{53} is the smallest.
  12. Q12. Answer: (C) 4040
    Let number of members be n. Each member contributed 2n2n rupees. Total collection = n × 2n2n = 2n22n^{2} = 30423042 ⇒ n² = 15211521 ⇒ n = 39.39.
  13. Q13. Answer: (A) 55
    5252 is a multiple of 13.13. Hence, the required remainder is obtained on dividing 4545 by 13.13. Required remainder = 6.6.
  14. Q14. Answer: (A) 33
    Let number be x. x = 3q3q + 1.1. q = 2r2r + 11 ⇒ x = 3(2r)3(2r) + 11 + 11 = 6r6r + 4.4. Remainder when divided by 66 = 4.4.
  15. Q15. Answer: (C) 1818
    Let number be x. x = 13q13q + 11, q = 5r5r + 33 ⇒ x = 13(5r)13(5r) + 33 + 11 = 65r65r + 40.40. Remainder when divided by 6565 = 40.40.
  16. Q16. Answer: (A) 44
    When the second divisor is a factor of the first divisor, the second remainder is obtained by dividing the first remainder by the second divisor. Hence, on dividing 2929 by 88, the remainder is 5.5.
  17. Q17. Answer: (C) 22
    If a number leaves remainder 33 when divided by 66, it is of the form 6k6k + 3.3. Square = (6k)(6k) + 323^{2} = 36k236k^{2} + 36k36k + 9.9. Remainder when divided by 66 is 3.3.
  18. Q18. Answer: (B) 8080
    Let the numbers be x and y. xy\frac{x}{y} = 55 => x = 5y.5y. x + y = 120120 => 6y6y = 120120 => y = 2020, x = 100.100. Difference = 80.80.
  19. Q19. Answer: (A) 0.70.7 + sqrt(0.16)
    0.70.7 + sqrt(0.16) = 0.70.7 + 0.40.4 = 1.11.1; 1.021.02 - 0.624\frac{0.6}{24} = 1.021.02 - 0.0250.025 = 0.9950.995; 1.21.2 × 0.830.83 = 0.9960.996; sqrt(1.44) = 1.2.1.2. Hence, sqrt(1.44) is the greatest.
  20. Q20. Answer: (B) 5959
    Sum = 6060 × 612\frac{61}{2} = 3030 × 61.61. Clearly, it is divisible by 60.60.
  21. Q21. Answer: (C) 52\frac{5}{2}
    10.04\frac{1}{0.04} = 1004\frac{100}{4} = 25.25.
  22. Q22. Answer: (A) 55
    7197^{19} = (6)(6) + 119.1^{19.} Each term except the last term is divisible by 6.6. Hence, 7197^{19} + 22 when divided by 66 leaves remainder 11 + 22 = 3.3.
  23. Q23. Answer: (B) 224224
    Number at (i) = 643643 - 175175 = 468.468. Number at (ii) = 17521752 - 114114 = 1638.1638. Number at (iii) = 11491149 - 213213 = 936.936. Clearly, 468468, 16381638 and 936936 are multiples of 234.234. Divisor = 234.234.
  24. Q24. Answer: (C) 7474
    Let the number be x. Then, x - 3131 = 7575 - x ⇒ 2x2x = 106106 ⇒ x = 53.53.
  25. Q25. Answer: (C) 0.1110.111
    The smallest possible three-place decimal number is 0.0010.001 (which is not listed). Hence, the correct option is (4)(4) None of the above.
  26. Q26. Answer: (B) sqrt(0.0121)
    (0.1)2(0.1)^{2} = 0.010.01, sqrt(0.0121) = 0.110.11, sqrt(0.0004) = 0.02.0.02. Clearly, 0.010.01 < 0.020.02 < 0.110.11 < 0.12.0.12. Hence, 0.120.12 is the largest.
  27. Q27. Answer: (A) 1010
    Let the number be x. (x × 32\frac{3}{2} - (x ÷ 32\frac{3}{2} = 1010 ⇒ 3x2\frac{3x}{2} - 2x3\frac{2x}{3} = 1010 ⇒ (9x)(9x) - 4x64x\frac{}{6} = 1010 ⇒ 5x5x = 6060 ⇒ x = 12.12.
  28. Q28. Answer: (C) 56\frac{5}{6}
    Decimal equivalents: 67\frac{6}{7} = 0.8570.857, 56\frac{5}{6} = 0.8330.833, 78\frac{7}{8} = 0.8750.875, 45\frac{4}{5} = 0.8.0.8. Clearly, 0.8750.875 is the greatest, so 78\frac{7}{8} is the largest.
  29. Q29. Answer: (B) 33

  37. Q37. Answer: (A) 0.90.9
    0.90.9 = 910\frac{9}{10} = 0.90.9, 0.90.9̄ = 99\frac{9}{9} = 11, 0.090.09 = 990\frac{9}{90} = 0.10.1, 0.090.09̄ = 999\frac{9}{99} = 111\frac{1}{11} ≈ 0.09.0.09. Hence, 0.90.9̄ is the greatest.
  38. Q38. Answer: (C) 45\frac{4}{5}
    The decimal equivalents of : 76\frac{7}{6} = 1.1661.166, 79\frac{7}{9} = 0.7770.777, 45\frac{4}{5} = 0.80.8, and 57\frac{5}{7} = 0.714.0.714. Therefore, the smallest number is 57.\frac{5}{7.}
  39. Q39. Answer: (A) 49\frac{4}{9}
    49\frac{4}{9} ≈ 0.4440.444, sqrt(9/49) = 37\frac{3}{7} ≈ 0.42860.4286, 0.450.45̄ = 0.45…0.45\dots, (0.8)2(0.8)^{2} = 0.64.0.64. The smallest is sqrt(9/49) ≈ 0.4286.0.4286.
  40. Q40. Answer: (A) 34\frac{3}{4}
    27\frac{2}{7} ≈ 0.2860.286, 13\frac{1}{3} = 0.3330.333, 56\frac{5}{6} ≈ 0.8330.833, 34\frac{3}{4} = 0.75.0.75. The greatest is 56.\frac{5}{6.}
  41. Q41. Answer: (C) 3405634056
    A number is divisible by 1818 if it is divisible by 22 and 99 both. 6504365043 is not divisible by 2.2. Hence, 6504365043 is not divisible by 18.18.
  42. Q42. Answer: (B) 380380
    Let numbers be x and y (x > y). xy = 93759375, xy\frac{x}{y} = 1515 ⇒ x = 15y.15y. 15y215y^{2} = 93759375 ⇒ y² = 625625 ⇒ y = 25.25. x = 375.375. Sum = 400.400.
  43. Q43. Answer: (C) −8348-\frac{83}{48}
    23\frac{2}{3} of 33 13\frac{1}{3} = 23\frac{2}{3} × 103\frac{10}{3} = 209.\frac{20}{9.} Difference of 22 14\frac{1}{4} and 11 12\frac{1}{2} = 94\frac{9}{4} - 32\frac{3}{2} = 94\frac{9}{4} - 64\frac{6}{4} = 34.\frac{3}{4.} 34\frac{3}{4} of this = 34\frac{3}{4} × 34\frac{3}{4} = 916.\frac{9}{16.} Result = 209\frac{20}{9} - 916\frac{9}{16} = (320)(320) - 8114481\frac{}{144} = 239144.\frac{239}{144.}
  44. Q44. Answer: (A) 64006400
    Quotient = 16.16. Divisor = 2525 × 1616 = 400.400. Remainder = 4005\frac{400}{5} = 80.80. Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder = 400400 × 1616 + 8080 = 6480.6480.
  45. Q45. Answer: (A) 6060
    Let numbers be x and y. xy = 1152011520, xy\frac{x}{y} = 95.\frac{9}{5.} x² = 1152011520 × 95\frac{9}{5} = 2073620736 ⇒ x = 144.144. y = 80.80. Difference = 144144 - 8080 = 64.64.
  46. Q46. Answer: (A) 58\frac{5}{8}
    Let fractions be p < q < r. rp\frac{r}{p} = 76\frac{7}{6} ⇒ r = 7p6.\frac{7p}{6.} Middle fraction q = 76\frac{7}{6} - 13\frac{1}{3} = 56.\frac{5}{6.} p + 56\frac{5}{6} + 7p6\frac{7p}{6} = 5924\frac{59}{24} ⇒ 13p6\frac{13p}{6} = 5924\frac{59}{24} - 56\frac{5}{6} = 3924\frac{39}{24} ⇒ p = 34.\frac{3}{4.}
  47. Q47. Answer: (A) 33
