Answer : 3. "4"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 4 Explanation: N = H.C.F. of (4665 - 1305), (6905 - 4665) and (6905 - 1305) = H.C.F. of 3360, 2240 and 5600 = 1120. Sum of digits in N = ( 1 + 1 + 2 + 0 ) = 4

Answer : 4. "0.375 & 0.1"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 0.375 & 0.1 Explanation: 3/8 as a Decimal : In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple. Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125 => 3 x 1258 x 125 = 3751000 = 0.375   1/10 as a Decimal : 1 divided into 10 parts of each 0.1.   Therefore, 3/8 = 0.375 and 1/10 = 0.1 in decimals.
