Q:

Sandeep got Rs. 6000 as his share out of the total profit of Rs. 9000 which he and Saketh earned at the end of one year. If Sandeep invested Rs. 20000 for 6 months, whereas Saketh invested his amount for the whole year, the amount invested by Saketh?

A) Rs. 5000 B) Rs. 6200
C) Rs. 8100 D) R. 7600
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 5000

Explanation:

Let the amount invested by saketh = RS. p

Now, that of sandeep = 20,000 x 6

saketh = 12 x p

Ratio of their earnings = 120000 : 12p = 6000 : (9000 - 6000)

=> 12000012p = 60003000 => p= Rs. 5000

Hence, the amount investe by saketh  = Rs. p  = Rs. 5000.

Q:

In how many ways can the letters of the word 'MISSISIPPI' be arranged ?

A) 12400 B) 11160
C) 16200 D) 12600
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 12600

Explanation:

Total number of alphabets = 10

so ways to arrange them = 10! 

 

Then there will be duplicates because 1st S is no different than 2nd S.

we have 4 Is 3 S and 2 Ps 

 

Hence number of arrangements = 10!/4! x 3! x 2! = 12600

Q:

A train travelling at 48 kmph crosses another train, having half its length and travelling in opposite direction at 42 kmph, in 12 sec. It also covers a bridge in 45 sec. Find the length of the bridge ?

A) 250 mts B) 400 mts
C) 320 mts D) 390 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 400 mts

Explanation:

Let the length of the 1st train = L mts

Speed of 1st train = 48 kmph

Now the length of the 2nd train = L/2 mts

Speed of 2nd train = 42 kmph

Let the length of the bridge = D mts

Distance = L + L/2 = 3L/2

Relative speed = 48 + 42 = 90 kmph = 90 x 5/18 = 25 m/s(opposite)

Time = 12 sec

=> 3L/2x25 = 12

=> L = 200 mts

Now it covers the bridge in 45 sec

=> distance = D + 200

Time = 45 sec

Speed = 48 x5/18 = 40/3 m/s

=> D + 200/(40/3) = 45

=> D = 600 - 200 = 400 mts

Hence, the length of the bridge = 400 mts.
