Question :

In a cricket team, the average age of eleven players in 28 years. What is the age of the captain?

Statements :

a. The captain is eleven years older than the youngest player.

b. The average age of 10 players, other than the captain is 27.3 years.

c. Leaving aside the captain and the youngest player, the average ages of three groups of three players each are 25 years, 28 years and 30 years respectively.

A) All a,b and c follows B) Only a and c follows
C) Either b alone or a & b follows D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Either b alone or a & b follows

Explanation:

From statement (b)
Average of 11 players = 11 x 28 = 308
Average of 10 players = 10 x 27.3 = 273
Age of captain = 308 - 273 = 35.

From the Statement (a) we can say that captain's age (C) = y + 11 ...(1) where y-youngers age
From the statement (c),the averge age of 3groups of 3players each was given,
It means total 9 players age was given indirectly,
1st group: 25 x 3 = 75
2nd group: 28 x 3 = 84
3rd group: 30 x 3 = 90
Total  is 75 + 84 + 90 = 249
Now {C + Y + (9 players age sum)}/11 = 28
Y + 11 + Y + (249) = 28 x 11=308
2Y+260=308
2Y = 308-260 = 40 ==> Y=24 ==> C(captain's age)= Y+11 = 24+11 = 35

Therefore, statement b alone or a & c only is the answer.

Q:

What is 90 days from today?

 

Hints : Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

A) 18th April, Friday B) 20th April, Saturday
C) 21th April, Sunday D) 19th April, Saturday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20th April, Saturday

Explanation:

Given Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

In january, we have 31 days

February - 28 days (Non leap year)

March - 31 days

April - 30 days

=> Remaining days => 31 - 20 = 11 in Jan

+ 28 in Feb + 31 in Mar = 11 + 28 + 31 = 70 days

More 20 days to complete 90 days => upto 20th April

 

Therefore, after 90 days from today i.e, 20th Jan 2017 is 20th Apr 2017.

 

Now, the day of the week will be 

90/7 => Remainder '6'

As the day starts with '0' on sunday 

6 => Saturday.

 

Required day is 20th April, Saturday.
