Q:

A single pipe of diameter x has to be replaced by six pipes of diameters 12 cm each. The pipes are used to covey some liquid in a laboratory. If the speed/flow of the liquid is maintained the same then the value of x is ?

A) 14.69 cm B) 29.39 cm
C) 18.65 cm D) 22.21 cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 29.39 cm

Explanation:

Volume of water flowing through 1 pipe of diameter x = Volume discharged by 6 pipes of diameter 12 cms.

 

As speed is same, area of cross sections should be same. 

 

Area of bigger pipe of diameter x = Total area of 6 smaller pipes of diameter 12 

i.e πR2 = 6πR12   

Here R = R and R1 = 12/2 = 6   

R2 = 6×6×6   

R = 14.696   

=> D = X = 14.696 * 2 = 29.3938 cm.

Q:

A man has only 20-paise and 25-paise coins in a bag. If he has 50 coins in all totaling to Rs.10.25, then the number of 20-paise coins is 

A) 42 B) 45
C) 38 D) 36
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 45

Explanation:

Let number of 20 ps coins = x and

number of 25 ps coins = y

Given total coins in the bag = 50

x + y = 50.......(1)

But the total money in the bag = Rs. 10.25

0.20x + 0.25y = 10.25

20x + 25y = 1025.........(2)

Now multiplying (1) by 25 we get

25x+25y=1250.............(3)

By solving (2) and (3)

20x + 25y = 1025;

=> x = 45;

Then, the no. of 20 ps coins are 45.

Q:

If two fractions, each of which has a value between 0 and 1, are multiplied together, the product will be :

A) always greater than either of the original fractions B) always less than either of the original fractions
C) sometimes greater and sometimes less than either of the original fractions D) remains the same
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) always less than either of the original fractions

Explanation:

We can easily Answer this by taking some values.

 

The question states that the two fractions, each have values between 0 and 1.

Let us say one of the fraction is 1/2 and the other fraction is 1/3 .

The product of the two fractions is 1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6 .
 is lesser than both 1/2  and 1/3 .

So, the correct answer is that the product is always less than either of the original fractions
