Q:

How many seconds in 10 years?

A) 31523500 sec B) 315360000 sec
C) 315423000 sec D) 315354000 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 315360000 sec

Explanation:

We know that,

1 year = 365 days

1 day = 24 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds.

 

Then, 1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 seconds.

= 8760 x 3600

1 year = 31536000 seconds.

 

Hence, 10 years = 31536000 x 10 = 315360000 seconds.

Q:

A, B, C and D enter into partnership. A subscribes 1/3 of the capital B 1/4, C 1/5 and D the rest. How much share did A get in a profit of Rs.2490 ?

A) Rs. 820 B) Rs. 830
C) Rs. 840 D) Rs. 850
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 830

Explanation:

Let the total amount in the partnership be 'x'.
Then A's share = x/3
B's share = x/4
C's share = x/5
D's share = x - (x/3 + x/4 +x/5) = 13x/60

A : B : C : D = x/3 : x/4 : x/5 : 13x/60 = 20 : 15 : 12 : 13

A's share in the profit of Rs. 2490 = 20 (2490/60) = Rs. 830.
