Q:

Four thermal heaters A,B, C and D are used in the R & D department of Raliance chemicals Ltd. Only one heater can be used on any day . If heater A is used on any day, neither A nor C can be used the next day. If heater C is used on any day, neither C nor D can be used on the next day. If heater C is used on any day, then A has to be used the next day. If heater D is used on any day, then B has to be used the next day.

If heater D is used on the third day and different heaters are used on first and fourth day, which heater is used on the first day ?

   (1) D       (2) A       (3) B        (4) C

Answer

If heater D is used on the third day, heater B has to be used on the fourth day and A has to be used on the second day. But if A is used on second day, then either B or C has to be used on the first day. But if heater B is used on the first day, then according to the question, the requirement of having different heaters on the first day and fourth days would not be fulfilled. Hence the heater that would be used on the first day is C.

Q:

The market price of an article was 40% more than its cost price. Rana was going to sell it at market price to a customer, but he showed Rana some defects in the article, due to which Rana gave him a discount of 28.57%. Next day he came again and showed Rana some more defects, hence he gave him another discount that was equal to 12.5% of the cost price. What was the approximate profit/loss to Rana ?

A) Loss of 12.5% B) Profit of 12.5%
C) Loss of 24.5% D) Profit of 22.5%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Loss of 12.5%

Explanation:

Let the cost price be Rs. 100
Then, market price is Rs. 140
Now, the first discount is of 28.57% Rs.140 =~ Rs. 40
Hence, its selling price = 140 - 40 = Rs. 100
Now since Rana is selling at cost price, any further discount will be equal to loss percentage.
The next dicount of 12.5% will be the loss percentage to Rana.
