Q:

X can complete the work in 10 days, Y can do the same in 15 days. If they are hired for 5 days to do the work together, what is the work that left unfinished?

A) 1/3 B) 2/3
C) 1/6 D) 5/6
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 1/6

Explanation:

Given X can do in 10 days 

=> 1 day work of X = 1/10

 

Y can do in 15 days 

=> 1 day work of Y = 1/15

 

1day work of (X + Y) = 1/10 + 1/15 = 1/6

 

Given they are hired for 5 days

 => 5 days work of (X + Y) = 5 x 1/6 = 5/6

 Therefore, Unfinished work = 1 - 5/6 = 1/6

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.
