1. The number of ways of selecting two numbers from the set {1, 2, …,12} whose sum is divisible
by 3 is
(A) 66 (B) 16
(C) 6 (D) 22
1. (D)
Any natural number is either of the form 3 k or 3k – 1 or 3k +1. Sum of two numbers will be
divisible by 3 if and only if either both are of the form 3 k or one is of the form 3k-1 and other is
of the form 3k+1. This can be done in 4C2+4C1 4C1 = 6+16 = 22

ways. These two digits can be placed to the right of 4th position in one way only. The
remaining three digits to the left of 4th position are in the required order automatically.

61. (B)
7! = 24 32 5 7
Since the factor should be odd as well as of the form 3t + 1, the factor cannot be a multiple

63. (A), (B)
f(n) = 1! + 2! + 3! + . . . . . + n!
f(n+1) = 1! + 2! + 3! + . . . . . + (n+1)!
f(n+2) = 1! + 2! + 3! + . . . . . + (n+2)!
f(n+2) – f(n+1) = ( n +2)! = ( n+2 )( n + 1)! = (n +2)[ f( n+1) – f(n) ]
f( n+2) = (n+3)f( n+1) – (n+2)f(n) P(x) = x +3, Q(x) = – x –2

Two distinct odd digits for the second and fourth places can be selected in 4C2 = 6 ways
(since we cannot take 1, as first digit will be at least 2). Now these can be arranged in
increasing order in one way only. Similarly two distinct even digits for the first and third
places can be selected in 4C2 = 6 ways (since we cannot take 0). Now these can be
arranged in increasing order in one way only.
Now total number of ways of filling the four places is 6 6 = 36.
