Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Let the five consecutive odd numbers be x-4, x-2, x, x+2, x+4

According to the question,

Difference between square of the average of first two odd number and the of the average last

two odd numbers is 396

i.e, x+3 and x-3

$$\begin{gathered} ⇒x + 32 - x - 32 = 396 \\ ⇒ x2 + 9 + 6x - x2 + 6x - 9 = 396 \\ ⇒ 12x = 396 \\ ⇒ x = 33 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the smallest odd number is 33 - 4 = 29.

To find the minimum distance, we have to get the LCM of 75, 80, 85

Now, LCM of 75, 80, 85 = 5 x 15 x 16 x 17 = 20400

Hence, the minimum distance each should walk so that thay can cover the distance in complete steps = 20400 cms = 20400/100 = 204 mts.

 Investment ratio of A, B & C = (4000 ×6+3000×9):(5500 ×6+4000×9):4

Total number of chairs = (3 + 5 + 4) = 12.

Let S be the sample space.

Then, n(s)= Number of ways of picking 2 chairs out of 12

= 12×11/2×1 = 66

Let n(E) = number of events of selecting 2 chairs for selecting no white chairs.

=> 8C2 = 8×7/2×1 = 28

Therefore required probability = 28/66 = 14/33.

Given length of the rectangle = 3 cm

Breadth of the rectangle = 4 cm

Then, the diagonal of the rectangle D = 32 + 42 = 25 = 5

Then, it implies side of square = 5 cm

We know that Area of square = S x S = 5 x 5 = 25 sq.cm.

75% of 450 + ? % of 560 = 600 

$$\begin{gathered} 75 x 450100 + ? x 560100 = 600 \\ 75 x 92 + 28p5 = 600 \\ 75x9x5 + 56p10 = 600 \\ 3375 + 56p = 6000 \\ 56p = 2625 \\ p = 46.875 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, in the given question ? = 46.875

Time taken by both Meghana and Ganesh to work together is given by =

t1 x t2

Where

$$\begin{gathered} t1 = 32 hrs \\ t2 = 12 12 hrs = 252 hrs \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, time took by both to work together = 

32 x 252 = 16 x 25 = 4 x 5 = 20 hrs
