Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

Total number of events=52

Number of aces =4

So,required probability = 4/52 =1/13

Given a secret is told to 3 persons in 3 minutes.
And if the process continues with each person saying 3 other persons,
In 30 minutes => the rocess for 10 times because each person time is 3 minutes.
Required number of persons = 3 + 32 + 33 + .... + 39 + 310

Now it forms a geometric progression,

Sum to n terms is S = arn - 1r - 1

Here a = 3, r = 3

 
=> 59048 x 3 /2

= 88572.

We know the formula for calculating

The compound interest C = P1 + r100n - 1 where P = amount, r = rate of interest, n = time

Here P = 5000, r1 = 10, r2 = 20

Then $$\begin{gathered} C = 65001 + 101002 x 1 + 201002 - 1 \\ = 6500 x 18562500 \\ = 65 x 185625 \end{gathered}$$

C = Rs. 4826.

Given A & B in partnership

A Invests 116000 for 12 months 

=> A's share = 116000 x 12 = 13,92,000

B Invests for 6 months

=> B's share = 144000 x 6 = 8,64,000

Their Ratio = 1392 : 864 = 29 : 18

Let the Annual profit = P

Given B's share = Rs. 9000

=> 18/47 x P = 9000

=> P = 9000 x 47/18

=> P = 23,500

Hence, Overall profit = P = Rs. 23,500

Perimeter = Distance covered in 8 min. = (12000/60) * 8 = 1600m 

Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres.  

Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160.  

Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m.

Area = (480 x 320) = 153600 

End of first year     :  10000 x (3/5) = Rs. 6000
End of second year :  6000 x (3/5) = Rs. 3600
End of third year    :  3600 x (3/5) = Rs. 2160

Let N be the required number. 

=> 60100x27x34xN=2664  

=> N = 2664x2x7x5/9  

=> N = 20720.

1 2 3 4 5 6(Shankar) 7(Nitu) 8(Althaf) 9 10 11 12 13 14
Here, Althaf is 8th from front, Shankar is 9th from rear end and Nitu is between them
So minimum no. of boys standing in the queue = 14
