Unit's Digit · XAT PYQs
Nadeem’s age is a two-digit number X, squaring which yields a three-digit number,whose last digit is Y. Consider the statements below:
Statement I: Y is a prime number
Statement II: Y is one-third of X
To determine Nadeem’s age uniquely:
X and Y are the digits at the unit's place of the numbers (408X) and (789Y) where X ≠ Y. However, the digits at the unit's place of the numbers (408X)63 and (789Y)85 are the same. What will be the possible value(s) of (X + Y)?
Example: If M = 3 then the digit at unit's place of the number (2M) is 3 (as the number is 23) and the digit at unit's place of the number (2M)2 is 9 (as 232 is 529).
