@ Vignesh,

But there was one option which justified the answer.

That sum can not be calculated
as
there are infinite numbers possible for that statement.

I would also be responding like you if my answer would have been accepted right.

Dear Admin,

It is not fair fair on your part to change language of qn on next day .
According to statement
Sum of all the numbers formed by the integers 2,3,4,5,8 is ....

The sum can not be calculated as there are infinite numbers that can be made with these integers.

On next day , you changed the statement to help some members with wrong answers with new statement

Sum of all the 5 digit numbers formed by the integers 2,3,4,5,8 is
(Repetition is not allowed)


Pls respond with inbiased approach.

@ yadeesh,

check solution given by Aman

Sum of x terms = (x/2)*(2*30 +(x-1)*1)
when x=129,
sum = 129*188/2 =129*94=12126
for x=130
sum = 65*189=12285

so min value of x should be 130 so that
30+31+32+33+................ upto x numbers > 12250


so answer is 130.

Dear Admin
Refer the solved puzzle(#M40000070)

The answer has given as 16 but I found it as 15
Because, there would be four cuts required to get maximum No of pieces of cake. We do not get the maximum pieces when the cutting would be parallel.Therefore, axial cutting is required.
For this the following formula has been used:

For N(max)=(n^3+5n+6)/6

K=5.5 is not minimum value satisfying given conditions.
Many values less than that satisfy given conditions.
even k 0.5 satisfies which is not there in options.

so none of these.

The mistake in qn was informed to administrator in time but there was no response from admin.

so qn was answered according to given statements.

How min k=5.5 can satisfy given conditions ?

as k=1 also satisfies all conditions when A= 9.

pls check.

so
none of these should be correct for yesterday puzzle.
