Q:

A man walking at the speed of 4 kmph crosses a square field diagonally in 3 meters.The area of the field is

A) 10000 B) 20000
C) 30000 D) 40000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20000

Explanation:

speed of the man = 4 x (5/18) m/sec = 10/9 m/sec

time taken = 3 x 60 sec = 180 sec

length of diagonal = speed x  time = (10/9) x 180 = 200m

Area of the field = (1/2) x (dioagonal)²

= (1/2) x 200 x 200 sq.m = 20000sq.m

Q:

5/9 of the part of the population in a village are females. If 30 % of the females are married. The percentage of unmarried males in the total males is ?

A) 62.5 % B) 125 %
C) 84.32 % D) 46.87 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 62.5 %

Explanation:

Let total population = p
number of females = 5p/9
number of males =(p-5p/9) = 4p/9
married females = 30% of 5p/9 = 30x5p/100x9 = p/6
married males = p/6
unmarried males =(4p/9-p/6) = 5p/18
Percentage of unmarried males in the total males = {(5p/18)/4p/9}x100 = (5p/18)x(9/4p) = 125/2 % = 62.5%

Q:

A is three times as old as B. C was twice-as old as A four years ago. In four years' time, A will be 31. What are the present ages of B and C ?

A) 45, 10 B) 10, 50
C) 9, 50 D) 50, 15
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 9, 50

Explanation:

Let the age of A = A, B = B and C = C

From given

A = 3B

4 years ago,

C-4 = 2(A-4);

After 4 years

A + 4 = 31;

A = 27;
sub in above B, we get B = 9
C = 2(27 - 4) + 4 = 46 + 4 = 50

Hence B = 9yrs and C = 50yrs.
