Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

As A1 speaks always after A2, they can speak only in  1st  to 9th places and 

A2 can speak in 2nd to 10 the places only when A1 speaks in 1st place 

A2 can speak in 9 places the remaining 

 A3, A4, A5,...A10  has no restriction. So, they can speak in 9.8! ways. i.e

when A2 speaks in the first place, the number of ways they can speak is 9.8!.

When A2 speaks in second place, the number of ways they can speak is  8.8!.

When A2 speaks in third place, the number of ways they can speak is  7.8!. When A2 speaks in the ninth place, the number of ways they can speak is 1.8!

Therefore,Total Number of ways they can  speak = (9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1) 8! = 92(9+1)8! = 10!/2

Let the present age of Pinky be x years

Then the age of Mary is x - 12 years

After 3 years,

Ratio of  MaryPinky = x - 9x + 3 = 58

8x - 72 = 5x +15

=> 3x = 87

=> x = 29

=> Age of Pinky = 29 years

=> Age of Mary = 29 - 12 = 17 years

Present age of Sam = 29 + 17 = 46

Before 15 years Sam age = 46 - 15 = 31 years.

Count the number of odd days from the year 2007 onwards to get the sum equal to 0 odd day.

Year : 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
Odd day : 1 2 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 2 1

Sum = 14 odd days => 0 odd days.
Calendar for the year 2018 will be the same as for the year 2007.

We are not given a value of P in this problem, so either pick a value

for P and stick with that throughout the problem, or just let P = P.

We have that t = 1, and r = .055. To find the effective rate of interest,

first find out how much money we have after one year:

A = Pert

A = Pe(.055)(1)

A = 1.056541P.

Therefore, after 1 year, whatever the principal was, we now have 1.056541P.

Next, find out how much interest was earned, I, by subtracting the initial amount of money from the final amount:

I = A − P

  = 1.056541P − P

  = .056541P.

Finally, to find the effective rate of interest, use the simple interest formula, I = Prt. So,

I = Pr(1) = .056541P

.056541 = r.

Therefore, the effective rate of interest is 5.65%

Remaining % of amount with Rohan

= 100 - (24 + 34 + 17 + 19)

= 100 - 94

= 6%

=> 6% = 540

=> 100% = ?

540 x 100/6 = Rs. 9000

Now, Money spent on insurance and food is

= 34 + 24 = 58% of 9000

= 58 x 9000/100

= 58 x 90

= Rs. 5220

First line will cut all other 14, similarly second will cut 13, and so on
Total = 14+13+12+11+10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1 = 105.

When a hand of cards is dealt, the order of the cards does not matter. If you are dealt two kings, it does not matter if the two kings came with the first two cards or the last two cards. Thus cards are combinations. There are 52 cards in a deck and we want to know how many different ways we can put them in groups of five at a time when order does not matter. The combination formula is used.

C(52,5) = 2,598,960
