Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Let Ishika and her daughter present ages be p and q

 From the given data, 

p = 4/3(p - 9)

 => p = 36 years 

Hence, Ishika's present age = 36 years and

Her daughter's present age = 1/6 x 36 = 6 years 

Now, required her daughter’s age three years ago = 6 - 3 = 3 years.

"The words in each pair are antonyms of each other". Here "opposite Relationship" exists. The Word Indolence and the word work are opposite to each other. Similarly the opposite of the word Taciturn is speak.

Indolence - Meaning of this word is 'Laziness'

Taciturn - Meaning of this word is ' Saying very little' , not communicating a lot.

Let the three numbers be x, y, z.

From the gien data,

x = 2y ....(1)

x = z/2 => z = 2(2y) = 4y .....(From 1)  ...........(2)

Given average of three numbers = 56

Then,

$$\begin{gathered} x + y + z3 = 56 \\ 2y + y + 4y3 = 56 (From 1 & 2) \\ 7y = 56 x 3 \\ y = 24 \end{gathered}$$

Now,

x = 2y => x = 2 x 24 = 48

z = 4y = 4 x 24 = 96

Now, the highest number is z = 96 & smallest number is y = 24

Hence, required sum of highest number and smallest number

= z + y

= 96 + 24

= 120.

Let the distance in one direction = k kms

Speed in still water = 4.5 kmph

Speed of river = 1.5

Hence, speed in upstream = 4.5 - 1.5 = 3 kmph

Speed in downstream = 4.5 + 1.5 = 6 kmph

Time taken by Rajesh to row upwards = k/3 hrs

Time taken by Rajesh to row downwards = k/6 hrs

Now, required Average speed =$$\begin{gathered} Total distanceTotal speed = 2kk3 + k6 \\ = 2k x 186k + 3k = 4 kmph \end{gathered}$$ 

Therefore, the average speed of the whole journey = 4kmph.

   0.125125...... = 0.125¯ =   125/999

First is a group of the second.

Hence, Archipelago : Islands :: Massif : Mountains.

nec po tam => boys are studying

me tam sam => grapes are sour

tam po me => boys are grapes 

It is clear that "sam" represents "sour" in that code language.
