ques 3 There are between 100 and 110 cards in a collection of cards. Of they counted out 3 at a times, there 2 left over, but if they are counted out 4 at a time, there is 1 left over. How many cards are in the collection.

There are only 3 numbers within the range that give a remainder of 1 when divided by 4: 101, 105, 109. (all of these are 1 more than 100, 104, 108, which are multiples of 4)
Of these, only 101 is give a remainder of 2 when divided by 3, so the answer is 101.

ques 4 If an is the centre of a circle then ab =bc=cd. what is is the value of x?

ques 5 An instructor scored a student test of 50 questions by substracting 2 at a times did s the number of incorrect answers from the number of correct answers. If the student answered all of the ques and received a score of 38, how many question did that student ansered correctly
i answered the third question, but cannot figure out what you mean by the other four. If you are serious about finding answers, please repost the complete question, with answer choices if available, preferably one question per post.
