Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

The horizontal lines are IK, AB, HG and DC i.e. 4 in number.

The vertical lines are AD, EH, JM, FG and BC i.e. 5 in number.

The slanting lines are IE, JE, JF, KF, DE, DH, FC and GC i.e. 8 is number.

Thus, there are 4 + 5 + 8 = 17 straight lines in the figure.

Prime Numbers :: Numbers which are divisible by only 1 and itself are Prime Numbers.

It's answer will be 91.

Because 91 can be divisible by 7,13,91,1.

It is quite clear that prime number should be divisible only by itself and by 1.

Given 0.875 and 0.375

0.875 ::

After decimal point there are 3 digits 875

Now, mutiply and divide 0.875 with 1000

$$\begin{gathered} 0.875 x 10001000 = 8751000 \\ Now, this can be reduced to fraction 78 \\ Therefore, 0.875 as fraction = 78 \end{gathered}$$

Similarly,

0.375 :: 

After decimal point there are 3 digits 375

Now, mutiply and divide 0.375 with 1000

$$\begin{gathered} 0.375 x 10001000 = 3751000 \\ Now, this can be reduced to fraction 38 \\ Therefore, 0.375 as fraction = 38 \end{gathered}$$

Given Prabhas is twice as good a workman as Rana.

Prabhas finishes the work in 3 hrs

=> Rana finishes the work in 6 hrs.

Number of hours required together they could finish the work

= 3 x 6 / 3 + 6

= 18/9

= 2 hrs.

729 = 9 x 9 x 9

=> Cube root of 729 = 9

Now, required square of 9 = 9 x 9 = 81.

Let us assume A is the faster and B is slower, A takes 10s to finish a lap of 50 m, B takes 17s(approx) to finish a lap of 50 m.
So at 11th sec A starts his 2nd lap by the time B will be in between so that is the first time they will meet each other, at 21st sec A starts his 3rd lap by the time B will be coming back to finish his 2nd lap. So that is the second time they meet in opposite. Then at 31st sec A will start his 4th lap by the time B would not even finish 2nd lap as he take 34(2*17) sec to finish 2 laps. So at 35th sec B will start his 3rd lap by the time A will be coming back to finish his 4th lap in the half way so they will meet 3rd time. At 41st sec A will start its fifth lap by the time B will be going to finish 3rd lap in same direction. At 50th second both will complete A's 5th lap and B's 3rd lap. So they will start next lap(A's 6th and B's 4th) from the same point in same direction. And A will finish the race after completing 300m(6*50) total distance and then they wont meet opposite to each other.

So totally they met 3 times in opposite direction.

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 

P is the nurse.
