Q:

Two boys and a girl can do a work in 5 days, while a boy and 2 girls can do it in 6 days. If the boy is paid at the rate of 28$ a week, what should be the wages of the girl a week ?

A) 24 $	B) 22 $
C) 16 $	D) 14 $

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 16 $

Explanation:

Let the 1 day work of a boy=b and a girl=g, then
2b + g = 1/5 ---(i) and
b + 2g = 1/6 ---(ii)
On solving (i) & (ii), b=7/90, g=2/45
As payment of work will be in proportion to capacity of work and a boy is paid $ 28/week,
so a girl will be paid $28 \times \frac{\frac{2}{45}}{\frac{7}{90}}$ = 16 $.

Q:

16 men and 12 women can complete a work in 20 days. 18 women can complete the same work in 40 days. In how many days will 12 men 27 women complete the same work?

A) 16 days	B) 18 days
C) 19 days	D) 21 days

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 16 days

Explanation:

(16M + 12W) x 20 = 18W x 40

=> 2M = 3W

Then,
Convert all men into women

12M + 27W = 27 + 12 x 3/2W = 45W

Let number of days required be 'D'

=> 18 x 40 = 45 x D

=> D = 16 days.

Q:

If $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$ , then $\frac{1}{l o g_{c + a} (b)} + \frac{1}{l o g_{c - a} (b)} = ?$

A) 1	B) 2
C) 4	D) 8

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2

Explanation:

Given $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

Now $\frac{1}{\log_{c + a} (b)} + \frac{1}{\log_{c - a} (b)}$

= $\log_{b} (c + a) + \log_{b} (c - a)$

= $\log_{b} (c^{2} - a^{2})$

= $2 \log_{b} (b) = 2$
