Common questions

The collection of "clever students in your school" is not considered a set because it lacks the objective criteria needed for well-defined membership. The term "clever" is subjective and can vary greatly depending on personal opinions, making it impossible to establish clear membership boundaries for the collection .

The volume of a cube is calculated by raising the edge length to the power of three, which is expressed in index form as \( a^3 \). For a cube with an edge of 4 cm, the volume is 4^3 = 4 × 4 × 4 = 64 cm³ in standard form. Index notation provides a concise way to represent repeated multiplication, while the standard form gives the actual volume measurement .

To find the smallest number divisible by 5, 6, and 8, calculate the LCM of these numbers. First, find the prime factors: 5 is a prime number, 6 = 2 × 3, and 8 = 2^3. The LCM takes the highest power of each prime factor: 2^3 × 3 × 5 = 120. Therefore, 120 is the smallest number divisible by all three numbers .

The set of even numbers less than 20 can be expressed in set-builder notation as \( \{ x \mid x \text{ is an even number and } x < 20 \} \). This method is useful because it provides a concise way to define sets by stating the property or properties that its members must satisfy, rather than listing all elements .

To demonstrate the relationship, calculate the HCF of 20 and 30, which is 10, and the LCM, which is 60. The product of the numbers is 20 × 30 = 600. According to the relationship, HCF × LCM should be equal to 600 (i.e., 10 × 60 = 600), illustrating that the product of the HCF and LCM of two numbers equals their product .

The divisibility rule for 5 states that a number is divisible by 5 if its last digit is either 0 or 5. For instance, the number 35 is divisible by 5 because it ends with the digit 5. This rule simplifies checking divisibility without performing full division calculations .

A well-defined collection is a set in which it is possible to determine membership objectively, meaning there should be a clear yes or no answer to whether an object is included in the set. This concept is important because it ensures that the set has precise boundaries and can be unequivocally described. For example, the set of vowels in the English alphabet is well-defined because it clearly includes the letters {a, e, i, o, u} .

To convert 165.1 cm to feet and inches, first convert to inches (1 inch = 2.54 cm): 165.1 cm = 65 inches. Then, convert inches to feet and remaining inches: 65 inches = 5 feet 5 inches (since 65 ÷ 12 = 5 R5). Such conversions are necessary in practical situations where different measurement systems are used, and a common understanding is needed, for example in international trade or engineering .

To construct a 5-digit number using only even digits that is divisible by 2, ensure the last digit is even. One possible strategy is to use digits 2, 4, 6, 8, 0, making sure the last digit is 0 since all numbers ending in 0 are divisible by 2. A number like 82460 fits these criteria. This strategy involves maximizing digit options while maintaining divisibility conditions .

To determine if a number is divisible by 3, sum its digits and check if the sum is divisible by 3. For the number 513, sum the digits: 5 + 1 + 3 = 9, and since 9 is divisible by 3, 513 is also divisible by 3. This rule simplifies the process of checking divisibility by reducing the number to a simpler form .
