A) 105555 B) 106665
C) 106656 D) 108333
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 106656

Explanation:

The number of arrangements of 4 different digits taken 4 at a time is given by 4P4 = 4! = 24.All the four digits will occur equal number of times at each of the position,namely ones,tens,hundreds,thousands.

 

 

 

Thus,each digit will occur 24/4 = 6 times in each of the position.The sum of digits in one's position will be 6 x (1+3+5+7) = 96.Similar is the case in ten's,hundred's and thousand's places.

 

 

 

Therefore,the sum will be 96 + 96 x 10 + 96 x 100 + 96 x 100 = 106656

Q:

Twelve children take sixteen days to complete a work which can be completed by 8 adults in 12 days. After working for 3 days, sixteen adults left and six adults and four children joined them. How many days will they take to complete the remaining work ?

A) 3 days B) 2 days
C) 6 days D) 12 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 6 days

Explanation:

From the given data,

12 children 16 days work,
One child’s one day work = 1/192.


8 adults 12 days work,
One adult’s one day’s work = 1/96.


Work done in 3 days = ((1/96) x 16 x 3) = 1/2


Remaining work = 1 – 1/2 = 1/2


(6 adults+ 4 children)’s 1 day’s work = 6/96 + 4/192 = 1/12

1/12 work is done by them in 1 day.

1/2 work is done by them in 12 x (1/2) = 6 days.
