Q:

What is the value of P in the following Equation ?

 192.5 × 19p = 197

A) 3.9 B) 4.1
C) 3.7 D) 4.5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 4.5

Explanation:

Given equation is  

  192.5 ×19p = 197   

Here it is in the form of am × an = am+n  

 Here m = 2.5 , n = p, m+n = 7

 => 2.5 + p = 7 

 => p = 7 - 2.5

 => p = 4.5

A) u = 1, v = 0 B) u = 1, v = 3/2
C) u = 0, v = 3/4 D) u = 0, v = 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) u = 1, v = 3/2

Explanation:

Using Trial and error method,

From the options  u = 1, v = 3/2 satisfies both the equations.

Q:

In a cricket match, five batsmen P, Q, R, S and T scored an average of 36 runs. S Scored 5 more than T; T scored 8 fewer than P; Q scored as many as S and T combined; and Q and R scored 107 between them. How many runs did T score ?

A) 20 B) 29
C) 28 D) 24
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 20

Explanation:

Let the runs scored by P, Q, R, S and T be  a, b, c, d and e

From given data,

a + b + c + d + e = 36 x 5 = 180
b + c = 107
Let a = x
e = x-8
d = x-3
now 3x - 11 + 107 = 180
3x = 84
x = 28
e's score = 28-8 = 20
