Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Let the rquired number be 'P'

According to the question,

$$\begin{gathered} 100 x P100 = 20 \\ => P = 20 x 100100 = 20 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, 100 percent of the number 20 is 20.

Now, you can also try for

20 percent of what number is 100

$$\begin{gathered} 20 x P100 = 100 \\ => P = 100 x 10020 = 500 \\ => P = 500 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, 20 percent of the number 500 is 100.

1 to 300 = 300 numbers
squares btwn 1 to 300 = 1,4,9,16,25,36,49.....289 i.e, total 17
cubes = 1,8,27,64,125,216 i.e, 5
now 1 and 64 are common so total numbers that should be removed ( 17+5-2= 20 )
total 20 term removed so 300th term would be 320

Let the total applicants be 100

Then, 20% got 85 marks

i.e 20 x 85 = 1700

and 25% got 95 marks

 i.e 25 x 95 = 2375

Now, the remaining applicants are 55 and let the average marks scored by them be x.

Therefore, 2375 + 1700 + 55x  =  60×100 

6000 - 4075 = 55x

55x=1925

x=35.

Q, the Doctor, is the father of T. S, the Housewife, is the grandmother of T and hence the mother of Q. Since there are only two married couples one being that of Q, the grandfather of R. i.e. U must be married to S. Thus, R and T will be both children of Q and these must be the students So, P, who remains, shall be the wife of Q and she alone can be the nurse. Thus, U must be the contractor 

The husband of P will be Q. 

Given total number of smileys = 5 + 6 + 3 = 14

Now, required probability = 

$$\begin{gathered} 5C214C2 + 3C214C2 \\ = 1091 + 391 \\ = 1391 \\ = 17 \end{gathered}$$

0.46 = 46/100 = 23/50.

Sum of the numerator and denominator is 23 + 50 = 73

A bud is an undeveloped or embryonic shoot and may be specialized to develop flowers. Similarly, Seed is undeveloped and may be developed into a plant.

Hence, Flower : Bud :: Plant : Seed.
