Q:

When I was married 10 years ago my wife is the 6th member of the family. Today my father died and a baby born to me.The average age of my family during my marriage is same as today. What is the age of Father when he died ?

A) 50 yrs B) 60 yrs
C) 70 yrs D) 65 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 60 yrs

Explanation:

Let the Father be x years when he died

Average Age 10 years ago be A

Total Age 10 years ago = 6*A

Total Age after 10 years(Just before father's Death) = 6A + 6*10 = 6A + 60

Father Died and Baby was born => the Total number of people in the family is Same (6)
Baby born today so age of baby = 0

(6A +60 - x)/6 = 6A/6
=> A + 10 -(x/6) = A
=> x/6 = 10
=> x = 60

Therefore we can conclude that the father was 60 years old when he died.

Q:

A cow was standing on a bridge, 5m away from the middle of the bridge. A train was coming towards the bridge from the ends nearest to the cow. Seeing this cow ran towards the the train and managed to escape when the train was 2m away from bridge. If it had run in the opposite direction, it would hit by the train 2m before the end of the bridge. What is the lenght of the bridge in meters assuming the speed of the train is 4 times that of cow ?

A) 22 mts B) 28 mts
C) 32 mts D) 34 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 32 mts

Explanation:

let 'b' be the Length of bridge from cow to the near end of the bridge and 'a' be the distance of the train from the bridge.
'x' be speed of cow => '4x' speed of train
Then the total length of the bridge 2b + 10.
(a-2)/4x = b/x
=> a-2 = 4b........(1)
Now if it had run in opposite direction
(a+2b+10-2)/4x = (b+10-2)/x
=> a - 2b = 24......(2)
Solving (1) and (2)
b = 11 ,
Therefore length of the bridge is 2 x 11 + 10 = 32mts.

Q:

A letter is takenout at random from 'ASSISTANT'  and another is taken out from 'STATISTICS'. The probability that they are the same letter is :

A) 35/96 B) 19/90
C) 19/96 D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 19/90

Explanation:

ASSISTANTAAINSSSTT

STATISTICSACIISSSTTT

Here N and C are not common and same letters can be A, I, S, T. Therefore

 Probability of choosing A =  2C19C1×1C110C1 = 1/45 

 Probability of choosing I = 19C1×2C110C1 = 1/45

Probability of choosing S = 3C19C1×3C110C1 = 1/10

Probability of choosing T = 2C19C1×3C110C1 = 1/15

Hence, Required probability =   145+145+110+115= 1990

C) CVCPZRL D) VCPCZLR
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) VPCVZRL

Explanation:

ROUTINE IS 7 LETTER WORD.. (1st=R,2nd=O,3rd=U,4th=T,5th=I,6th=N,7th=E)
1st and 3rd letter interchanging. (UORTINE)
5th and 7th letter interchanging. (UORTENI)
1st letter shifting one after that (VORTENI)
2nd letter shifting two befor that (VMRTENI)
3rd letter remains same (VMRTENI)
4th letter
(total alphabets - current)+1
(26 - 20)+1= 7.(i.e) G (VMRGFNI)
5th letter shifting one after that (VMRGFNI)
6th letter shifting two befor that (VMRGFLI)
7th letter remains same (VMRGFLI
Like that,
CRUELTY IS 7 LETTER WORD.. (1st=C,2nd=R,3rd=U,4th=E,5th=L,6th=T,7th=Y)
1st and 3rd letter interchanging. (URCELTY)
5th and 7th letter interchanging. (URCEYTL)
1st letter shifting one after that (VRCEYTL)
2nd letter shifting two befor that (VPCEYTL)
3rd letter remains same (VPCEYTL)
4th letter
(total alphabets - current)+1
(26 - 5)+1= 22.(i.e) V (VPCVYTL)

Q:

At what time, between 3 o’clock and 4 o’clock, both the hour hand and minute hand coincide each other  ? 

A) 3:16 7/11 B) 3:16 11/4
C) 3:30 D) 3:16 4/11
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 3:16 4/11

Explanation:

Coincide means 00  angle.

This can be calculated using the formulafor time A to B means  [11m/2 - 30 (A)]

Here m gives minutes after A the both hands coincides.

Here A = 3, B = 4

0 =11m/2 –30 × 3
11m = 90 × 2 = 180
m= 180/11 = 16 4/11

So time = 3 : 16 4/11
