Q:

Lucky started working 2 years ago. Her starting salary was half of Karthik's salary at that time. Each year since then Lucky and Karthik have received a rise of 10% in their respective salary. What percentage (to the nearest percent) of Karthik's current salary is Lucky's current salary ?

A) 75%	B) 22.5%
C) 35%	D) 50%

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 50%

Explanation:

Let the salary of Karthik 2 years ago be Rs.100
So, Lucky's salary 2 years ago was Rs.50

Karthik's present salary has seen two 10 percent increases. So as Lucky's salary.

So, Karthik's salary 1 year ago = 100 + 10% of 100 = 100 + 10 = 110.
Karthik's present salary = 110 + 10% of 110 = 110 + 11 = 121.

Lucky's salary 1 year ago = 50 + 10% of 50 = 50 + 5 = 55
Lucky's present salary = 55 + 10% of 55 = 55 + 5.5 = 60.5

Lucky's present salary of 60.5 = 50% of Karthik's present salary of 121.

Q:

P, Q and R start simultaneously from A to B. P reaches B, turns back and meet Q at a distance of 11 km from B. Q reached B, turns back and meet R at a distance of 9 km from B. If the ratio of the speeds of P and R is 3:2, what is the distance between A and B ?

A) 99	B) 100
C) 89	D) 1

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 99

Explanation:

Let, Distance between A and B = d

Distance travelled by P while it meets Q = d + 11

Distance travelled by Q while it meets P = d – 11

Distance travelled by Q while it meets R = d + 9

Distance travelled by R while it meets Q = d – 9

Here the ratio of speeds of P & Q => SP : SQ = d + 11 : d – 11

The ratio of speeds of Q & R => SQ : SR = d + 9 : d – 9

But given Ratio of speeds of P & R => P : R = 3 : 2

$\frac{S P}{S R} = \frac{S P}{S Q} x \frac{S Q}{S R} = \frac{(d + 11) (d + 9)}{(d - 11) (d - 9)}$

=> $\frac{(d + 11) (d + 9)}{(d - 11) (d - 9)}$ = 3/2

=> d = 1, 99

=> d = 99 satisfies.

Therefore, Distance between A and B = 99

Q:

If a soldier fires 7 shots from a gun in 12 minutes then find the total number of shots fired by the man in 3/2 hrs.

A) 45	B) 44
C) 46	D) 47

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 46

Explanation:

Here given soldier shots 7 shots in 12 min

=> 1 shot doen't take any time in 12 min

=> Only 6 shots take 12 min

12 min ------ 6 shots

90 min ------ ? shots

=> 90 x (6/12) = 45

Therefore, total shots fired in 90 minutes = 45 + 1 = 46 shots.

Q:

Which expression is equivalent to $i^{233}$ ?

A) i	B) 1
C) -i	D) -1

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) i

Explanation:

We know that,

$i^{2} = - 1 i^{3} = i^{2} x i = - 1 x i = - i i^{4} = i^{2} x i^{2} = - 1 x - 1 = 1 Hence, i^{233} = i^{4 x 58 + 1} = i^{232} x i^{1} = 1 x i = i$
