Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

                                                A    :    B    :    C   

Ratio of efficiency               3     :    1    :    2   

Ratio of No.of days            1/3  :   1/1  :   1/2    

     or                                       2    :    6    :    3   

Hence A is correct.  

Time from 7 am to 4.15 pm  = 9 hrs 15 min = 374 hrs 

3 min. 5 sec. of this clock = 3 min. of the correct clock. 

Now 3min.5sec. is37720 hrs of this clock = 3 min.is120 hrs of the correct clock 

374 hrs of clock = 120×72037×374 hrs of the correct clock. 

  = 9 hrs of the correct clock. 

 The correct time is 9 hrs after 7 am. i.e., 4 pm.

Other side = d2-s2= 2254-814 = 1444 = 6 ft

  Area of closet = (6 x 4.5) sq. ft = 27 sq. ft.

Average speed = 2aba+b, here a=25 b=4
= 2 x 25 x 4/(25+4) = 200/29 km/hr.

Distance covered in 5 hours 48 minutes
= Speed x time = (200/29)x (29/5) Distance covered in 5 hours 48 minutes = 40kms.

Distance of the post office from the village = (40/2) = 20 km.

Let breadth=x meters.   Then, Length =115x100 meters 

Given that, x×115x100=460  

=> x = 20  

Breadth = 20 

Let the required no of hours be x. Then

Less men , More hours    (Indirct Proportion)

Therefore,  15:36 ::25:x 

=> (15 x X)=(36 x 25)  => x = 60

Hence, 15 men can do it in 60 hours.

Time taken by one tap to fill half of the tank = 3 hrs.

  Part filled by the four taps in 1 hour =4*1/6 =2/3

Remaining part =1-12=12

23:12::1:x

=> x = 12*1*32=34

So, total time taken = 3 hrs. 45 mins.
