Q:

A watch which gains 5 seconds in 3 minutes was set right at 7 a.m. In the afternoon of the same day, when the watch indicated quarter past 4 o'clock, the true time is:

A) 4pm	B) 5pm
C) 6pm	D) 7pm

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4pm

Explanation:

Time from 7 am to 4.15 pm = 9 hrs 15 min = $\frac{37}{4}$ hrs

3 min. 5 sec. of this clock = 3 min. of the correct clock.

Now 3min.5sec. is $\frac{37}{720}$ hrs of this clock = 3 min.is $\frac{1}{20}$ hrs of the correct clock

$\frac{37}{4}$ hrs of clock = $(\frac{1}{20} \times \frac{720}{37} \times \frac{37}{4})$ hrs of the correct clock.

= 9 hrs of the correct clock.

$\therefore$ The correct time is 9 hrs after 7 am. i.e., 4 pm.

A) 9	B) 18
C) 27	D) 36

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 27

Explanation:

Other side = $\sqrt{d^{2} - s^{2}}$ = $\sqrt{(\frac{225}{4} - \frac{81}{4})}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{144}{4}}$ = 6 ft

Q:

The difference between the compound interest and the simple interest accrued on an amount of Rs. 18,000 in 2 years was Rs. 405. What was the rate of interest p.c.p.a. ?

A) 12%	B) 13%
C) 14%	D) 15%

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 15%

Explanation:

Let the rate be R% p.a. Then,

$[1800 {(1 + \frac{R}{100})}^{2} - 1800] - (\frac{1800 * R * 2}{100}) = 405$

$1800 [\frac{{(100 + R)}^{2}}{10000} - 1 - \frac{2 R}{100}] = 405$

$1800 [\frac{{(100 + R)}^{2} - 10000 - 200 R}{10000}] = 405$

$\Leftrightarrow$

$\frac{9}{5} * R^{2} = 405 \Leftrightarrow R^{2} = (\frac{405 * 5}{9}) = 225 \Leftrightarrow R = 15$
Rate = 15%.
