Algebra: Sequence and Series Test-3

Congratulations - you have completed Algebra: Sequence and Series Test-3.You scored %%SCORE%% out of %%TOTAL%%.You correct answer percentage: %%PERCENTAGE%% .Your performance has been rated as %%RATING%%
Your answers are highlighted below.
Question 1
The sum 9 + 16 + 25 + 36 + ….. + 100 is equal to:
A
350
B
380
C
400
D
420
Question 1 Explanation: 
Let p =sum of square of first 10 natural numbers
q= sum of square of 1st 2 natural numbers. Thus the given series is p-q
Thus the series
$ \begin{array}{l}=\frac{10(11)(21)}{6}-5\\=385-5\\=380\end{array}$
Question 2
Find the sum of the first five terms of the following series.
$ \displaystyle \frac{1}{1\times 4}+\frac{1}{4\times 7}+\frac{1}{7\times 10}+..........+$
A
9/32
B
7/16
C
5/16
D
1/210
Question 2 Explanation: 
$ \begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{1\times 4}+\frac{1}{4\times 7}+\frac{1}{7\times 10}+..........\\=\frac{1}{3}\left( \begin{array}{l}1-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{7}\\-\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{13}+\frac{1}{13}-\frac{1}{16}\end{array} \right)\\=\frac{15}{16}\times \frac{1}{3}=\frac{5}{16}\end{array}$
Question 3
If (1012 + 25)2 – (1012 –25)2 =10n, then the value of n is
A
20
B
14
C
10
D
5
Question 3 Explanation: 
(1012 + 25)2 – (1012 –25)2 =10n
=> (1012 + 25+1012 –25) (1012 + 25-1012 +25)=10n
=> 2 x 1012 x 2 x25=10n
=>1014=10n
=>n=14
Question 4
Given 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + …….+ 10 = 55, then the sum 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + …….+ 60 is equal to:
A
300
B
655
C
330
D
455
Question 4 Explanation: 
The given series is = 6 X (1+2+3+….+9+10)= 6 X 55 = 330.
Question 5
When simplified the product
$\displaystyle \left( 1-\frac{1}{2} \right)\,\left( 1-\frac{1}{3} \right)\,\left( 1-\frac{1}{4} \right)\,......\left( 1-\frac{1}{n} \right)\,\,\,\,gives:$
A
1/n
B
2/n
C
{2(n-1)}/n
D
2/{n(n-1)}
Question 5 Explanation: 
$ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}\left( 1-\frac{1}{2} \right)\,\left( 1-\frac{1}{3} \right)\,\left( 1-\frac{1}{4} \right)\,......\left( 1-\frac{1}{n} \right)\,\,\,\,\\=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{2}{3}\times \frac{3}{4}\times .......\times \frac{n-1}{n}\\=\frac{1}{n}\end{array}$
