Q:

A rectangular park 60 m long and 40 m wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the park and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. If the area of the lawn is 2109 sq. m, then what is the width of the road?

A) 1 B) 2
C) 3 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3

Explanation:

Area of the park = (60 x 40) = 2400m2

Area of the lawn = 2109m2 

Area of the crossroads = (2400 - 2109) = 291m2 

Let the width of the road be x metres. Then,

60x+40x-X2=291 

x2-100x+291=0 

  (x - 97)(x - 3) = 0
   x = 3.

The instructor's rules were simple. Breathe through your mouth, not your nose; else the mask will fog up. Easier said than done; I got it wrong many a time. But once you fought habit and got the hang of it, the panoramic underwater world revealed itself to you with high-definition clarity.

Led by him, I slowly peered through the mask into what till then was crystal-clear water, shimmering in the sunlight. I saw pebbles, sand and my fluid shadow. I was in Nemo's universe. Sea cucumbers, sea anemone, clown fish, star fish, sea horses, parrot fish, butterfly fish and a bevy of colourful salt water fish swam past. A shoal of canary-yellow fish did a merry dance and another with vibrant blue fish followed it. They were oblivious to the snorkelers who struggled to take in the sight of a world so beautiful, so colourful, and resist opening their mouth wide in amazement; the tube would fall off!

What is 'Nemo'?

A) A name of an under water animal B) Name of the writer
C) Name of the instructor D) Name of a type of sea cucumber

A) a B) b
C) c D) d
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) c

Explanation:
