Q:

Find value of $\frac{\log \sqrt{27} + \log 8 + l o g \sqrt{1000}}{\log 120}$

A) 1/2	B) 3/2
C) 2	D) 2/3

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3/2

Explanation:

$= \frac{\log \sqrt{3^{3}} + \log 2^{3} + \log \sqrt{10^{3}}}{\log (10 \times 3 \times 2^{2})}$

$= \frac{\log (3^{3})^{\frac{1}{2}} + \log 2^{3} + \log {(10^{3})}^{\frac{1}{2}}}{\log (10 \times 3 \times 2^{2})}$

$= \frac{\frac{1}{2} \log 3^{3} + 3 \log 2 + \frac{1}{2} \log 10^{3}}{\log 10 + \log 3 + \log 2^{2}}$

$= \frac{\frac{3}{2} (\log 3 + 2 \log 2 + \log 10)}{\log 3 + 2 \log 2 + \log 10}$ = $\frac{3}{2}$

Q:

If $A = \frac{l o g_{3} (2187)}{5}$ and $B = l o g_{243} (2187)$ , then which one of the following is correct?

A) A	B) A=B
C) A>B	D) can't be determined

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) A=B

Explanation:

Given $A = \frac{\log_{3} (2187)}{5} a n d B = \log_{243} (2187)$

$B = \log_{3^{5}} (2187) = \frac{\log_{3} (2187)}{5}$

=> A

Therefore, A = B

Q:

Sandeep got Rs. 6000 as his share out of the total profit of Rs. 9000 which he and Saketh earned at the end of one year. If Sandeep invested Rs. 20000 for 6 months, whereas Saketh invested his amount for the whole year, the amount invested by Saketh?

A) Rs. 5000	B) Rs. 6200
C) Rs. 8100	D) R. 7600

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 5000

Explanation:

Let the amount invested by saketh = RS. p

Now, that of sandeep = 20,000 x 6

saketh = 12 x p

Ratio of their earnings = 120000 : 12p = 6000 : (9000 - 6000)

=> $\frac{120000}{12 p} = \frac{6000}{3000} = > p = Rs . 5000$

Hence, the amount investe by saketh = Rs. p = Rs. 5000.

Q:

A train travelling at 48 kmph crosses another train, having half its length and travelling in opposite direction at 42 kmph, in 12 sec. It also covers a bridge in 45 sec. Find the length of the bridge ?

A) 250 mts	B) 400 mts
C) 320 mts	D) 390 mts

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 400 mts

Explanation:

Let the length of the 1st train = L mts

Speed of 1st train = 48 kmph

Now the length of the 2nd train = L/2 mts

Speed of 2nd train = 42 kmph

Let the length of the bridge = D mts

Distance = L + L/2 = 3L/2

Relative speed = 48 + 42 = 90 kmph = 90 x 5/18 = 25 m/s(opposite)

Time = 12 sec

=> 3L/2x25 = 12

=> L = 200 mts

Now it covers the bridge in 45 sec

=> distance = D + 200

Time = 45 sec

Speed = 48 x5/18 = 40/3 m/s

=> D + 200/(40/3) = 45

=> D = 600 - 200 = 400 mts

Hence, the length of the bridge = 400 mts.
