Maths:
Q) Sarah has a set of holiday photographs (fewer than hundred) which she is going to put into a photograph album.
If she puts 2 photgraphs on each page, she will have 1 photograh left over.
If she puts 3 photgraphs on each page, she will have 2 photograh left over.
If she puts 4 photgraphs on each page, she will have 3 photograh left over.
If she puts 5 photgraphs on each page, she will have 4 photograh left over.
How many photgraphs does she have altogether?

plz help ASAP !!
Thanks in adv.  ;D

Guys one more question !!!
Q 36 in the attached paper why is the correct answer D? Shouldn't it be C? When the resistance increases whys does the p.d. increase?
Again thanks in advance!!

From 1st condition ther number is odd andfrom las condition the last digit is 4 or 9 so must be nine sin the number is odd, so it must be 9,19,29,39,49,59,69,79,89,99. It has remainder 2 when dibided be 3 and remainder 3 when divided by 4.

The answer is 59

when the resistance increases, the voltage across it increases because it is consuming more of the power that is being supplied by the battery.

example - suppose a bulb is connected to a power source. Nothing else except for the bulb and the connecting wires to the power supply. Now let us add a resistor into the circuit (in series). you will notice the bulb gets dimmer. Why is it? Its because the resistor is using up some of the battery's voltage, thus, decreasing the voltage supplied to the bulb (you probably know that a bulb's brightness decreases whe the voltage decreases). Now, instead of the resistor, add a variable resistor. As you increase the resistance, the bulb gets dimmer. More voltage is being used up by the variable resistor and less of the voltage from the battery is reaching the bulb.
Hopefully you get it now.

The answer is D We have a potential divider. The LDR is a semiconductor and the resistance goes up in the dark because less electrons move into the conduction band. VLDR=VRLDR/(R+RLDR) and VLDR increases with |RLDR
