Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

From the given data,

containers contain mixtures of milk and water as 1365 lit, 1560 lit and 1755 lit.

Biggest measure that can measure all these different quantities exactly can be given by

HCF of (1365, 1560, 1755) 

That can be found as 

HCF of 1365, 1755 = 195

Now, HCF of 195 and 1560 = 195

Hence, biggest measure that can measure all the given different quantities exactly is 195 lit.

Clearly, increased migration would add to the burden on city's infrastructure. So, attempts should be made to make the villagers feel comfortable in the villages itself. So, only course I follows.

Suppose the ages of three persons are x, 2x, 3x years respectively 

Hence, age of youngest person = x = 30 years.

Let the place be at a distance of 'd' kms

From the given data,

$$\begin{gathered} d5 - 1 + d5 + 1 = 7560 kms \\ d4 + d6 = 54 \\ \end{gathered}$$

5d/12 = 5/4 => d = 3 kms.

Hence, the place is 3 kms far.

Cruise = a sea voyage for pleasure. All other words are related to ‘journey on land, sea with an aim’.

3

3 x 1.5 + 1.5 = 6

6 x 2.5 + 2.5 = 17.5

17.5 x 3.5 + 3.5 = 64.75

64.75 x 4.5 + 4.5 = 295.875

  LCD is nothing but Lowest or Least Common Denominator

Here LCD of 12 and 18 means LCD of two fractions with denominators 12 and 18 respectively.

Therefore, LCM of 12 & 18 = 6 x 3 x 2 = 36 

•  How to calculate LCD ::

The lowest common denominator or least common denominator (LCD) is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators of a set of fractions.

Let length, breadth and height of the room be 7, 3, 1 unit respectively.

Area of walls = 2(l+b)xh = 2(7+3)x1 = 20 sq. unit.

Now, length, breadth and height of room will become 3.5, 6 and 2 respectively. 

Area of walls = 2(l+b)xh = 2(3.5+6)x2 = 38 sq. unit. 

% Increase in the area of walls = (38-20)x100/20 = 90%.
