What is the least number which when doubled will be exactly divisible by 12, 14, 18 and 22?
Explanation:
LCM of 12, 14, 18 and 22 = 2772
Hence the least number which will be exactly divisible by 12, 14, 18 and 22 = 2772
2772 ÷ 2 = 1386
1386 is the number which when doubled, we get 2772
Hence, 1386 is the least number which when doubled will be exactly divisible by 12, 14, 18 and 22.
X and Y invest Rs.21000 and Rs.17500 respectively in a business. At the end of the year, they make a profit of Rs.26400. What is the share of X in the profit?

What is the two-digit number?
I. The difference between the two digits is 9.
II. The sum of the digits is equal to the difference between the two digits.
Explanation:
Let the tens and unit digits be x and y respectively. Then,
From Statement I. x-y= 9.
From Statement II. x+y=x-y.
From I and II, we get x-y= 9 and x+y= 9.
On solving, we get x= 9 and y= 0.
Therefore, Required number is 90.
Thus, both Statements and II are necessary to answer.
