Q:

A is 50% more efficient than B. They together start the work and 7/12th of work is left after 8 days. Find in what time B alone will complete the whole work.

A) 36 days  B) 44 days 
C) 50 days  D) 40 days 
 
Answer & Explanation Answer:

Explanation:

Ratio of efficiency of A to B is 3 : 2

Let, In 8 days they complete = (3 + 2) × 8 = 40 units

So, total work = 40 × 12/5 units

Time taken by B alone to complete whole work = 40 ×  12/5 ×2 = 48 days

Q:

In how many years, Rs. 200 will produce the same interest @ 5 % as Rs. 900 produce in 2 years @ 3 ½ %  ?

A) 5.2 yrs B) 7 yrs
C) 7.9 yrs D) 6.3 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 6.3 yrs

Explanation:

P = Rs. 900, R = 3 ½ % = 7/2 %, T = 2 years. 

Therefore, 

S.I. = PTR/100

S.I. = Rs. (900 x 7/2 x 2/100) = Rs. 63

Now, P = Rs. 200, S.I. = Rs. 63, R = 5 %

Time = ((100 x 63) / (200 x 5) ) years = 6.3 years.

Q:

Find the principal if the interest compounded at the rate of 10% per annum for two years is Rs. 420 ?

A) Rs. 2000 B) Rs. 2100
C) Rs. 1900 D) Rs. 2150
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 2000

Explanation:

Given,
Compound rate, R = 10% per annum
Time = 2 years
C.I = Rs. 420
Let P be the required principal.
A = (P+C.I)
Amount, A = P1 + r100n

(P+C.I) = P1 + 101002

(P+420) = P[11/10][11/10]

P-1.21P = -420

0.21P = 420

Hence, P = 420/0.21 = Rs. 2000

Q:

How many zeros are there from 1 to 10000 ?

A) 2893 B) 4528
C) 6587 D) 4875
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 2893

Explanation:

For solving this problem first we would break the whole range in 5 sections


1) From 1 to 9
Total number of zero in this range = 0


2) From 10 to 99
Total possibilities = 9*1 = 9 ( here 9 is used for the possibilities of a non zero integer)


3) From 100 to 999 - three type of numbers are there in this range
a) x00 b) x0x c) xx0 (here x represents a non zero number)
Total possibilities
for x00 = 9*1*1 = 9, hence total zeros = 9*2 = 18
for x0x = 9*1*9 = 81, hence total zeros = 81
similarly for xx0 = 81
total zeros in three digit numbers = 18 + 81 +81 = 180


4) From 1000 to 9999 - seven type of numbers are there in this range
a)x000 b)xx00 c)x0x0 d)x00x e)xxx0 f)xx0x g)x0xx
Total possibilities
for x000 = 9*1*1*1 = 9, hence total zeros = 9*3 = 27
for xx00 = 9*9*1*1 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162
for x0x0 = 9*1*9*1 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162
for x00x = 9*1*1*9 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162
for xxx0 = 9*9*9*1 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729
for xx0x = 9*9*1*9 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729
for x0xx = 9*1*9*9 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729
total zeros in four digit numbers = 27 + 3*162 + 3*729 = 2700
thus total zeros will be 0+9+180+2700+4 (last 4 is for 4 zeros of 10000)
= 2893

Q:

A boat travels 72 km downstream in 8 hours and 84 km upstream in 12 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the water current ?

A) 9 and 3 kmph B) 6 and 7 kmph
C) 8 and 1 kmph D) 7 and 2 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 8 and 1 kmph

Explanation:

Downstream speed = 72km/8hrs  = 9 kmph
upstream speed = 84km/12hrs = 7 kmph
speed of boat = avg of downstream and upstream speeds
speed of boat = (9+7)/2kmph = 8 kmph.
current speed = half of the difference of downstream and upstream speeds
currend speed = (9-7)/2kmph = 1 kmph
