Q:

At what time between 3 and 4 o’clock will the minute hand and the hour hand are on the same straight line but facing opposite directions ?

A) 3:15 2/8	B) 3:49
C) 3:49 1/11	D) 3:51

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3:49 1/11

Explanation:

On straight line means 180 degree angle.
180 = 11/2 min – 30 hrs
180 = 11/2 m – 30 × 3
180 = 11/2 m – 90
(180 + 90) 2 = 11 m
m = 540/11 = 49 1/11 minutes.

Q:

Divide Rs. 1301 between A and B, so that the amount of A after 7 years is equal to the amount of B after 9 years, the interest being compounded at 4% per annum.

A) Rs.625	B) Rs.626
C) Rs.286	D) Rs.627

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs.625

Explanation:

Let the two parts be Rs. x and Rs. (1301 - x).

$x {(1 + \frac{4}{100})}^{7} = (1301 - x) {(1 + \frac{4}{100})}^{9}$

$\frac{x}{(1301 - x)} = {(1 + \frac{4}{100})}^{2} = (\frac{26}{25} * \frac{25}{26})$

=> 625x=676(1301-x)

1301x=676 x 1301x=676.
So,the parts are rs.676 and rs.(1301-676)i.e rs.676 and rs.625

Q:

A is 30% more efficient than B. How much time will they, working together, take to complete a job which A alone could have done in 23 days ?

A) 9 days	B) 11 days
C) 13 days	D) 15 days

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 13 days

Explanation:

Ratio of times taken by A and B = 100 : 130 = 10 : 13.
Suppose B takes x days to do the work.

Then, 10 : 13 :: 23 : x => x = ( 23 x 13/10 ) => x = 299 /10.

A's 1 day's work = 1/23 ;
B's 1 day's work = 10/299 .

(A + B)'s 1 day's work = ( 1/23 + 10/299 ) = 23/299 = 113 .

Therefore, A and B together can complete the work in 13 days.

Q:

Find the appropriate relation for quantity1 and quantity2 in the following question:

Quantity 1: In an examination, Ankita scored 35 marks less than Puneeta. Puneeta scored 65 more marks than Meenakshi. Rakhi scored 115 marks, which is 20 marks more than Meenakshi's. Simpy scored 108 marks less than the maximum marks of the test. What approximate percentage of marks did Simpy score in the examination, if she got 67 marks more than Ankita?

Quantity 2: The length of a rectangle is increased by 60%. By what percent would the width have to be decreased to maintain the same area?

A) Quantity1 < Quantity2	B) Quantity1 ≤ Quantity2
C) Quantity1 ≥ Quantity2	D) Quantity1 > Quantity2

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Quantity1 > Quantity2

Explanation:

Quantity1-
Rakhi’s marks= 115
Meenakshi’s marks= 115 - 20 = 95
Puneeta’s marks= 95 + 65= 160
Ankita’s marks=160 - 35= 125
Simpy’s marks= 125+ 67= 192
Total maximum marks= 192 + 108= 300
Required percentage marks of Simpy
= $\frac{192}{300} \times 100 = 64 %$
Quantity2-
Let length and breadth be 100.

After increase in length it become 160, then
reduction in breadth be ‘x’
Now, 160*x= 100*100
Hence, x = $\frac{10000}{160} = 62.5$

100-62.5=37.5%

Q:

A wheel makes 1000 revolutions in covering a distance of 88 km. Find the radius of the wheel.

A) 14	B) 13
C) 12	D) 11

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 14

Explanation:

Distance covered in one revolution = $\frac{88 \times 1000}{1000}$ = 88m.

$2 {πR}^{2} = 88 \Rightarrow 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times R = 88 \Rightarrow R = 88 \times \frac{7}{44}$

Q:

If 6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days while 26 men and 48 boys can do the same in 2 days what is time taken by 15 men and 20 boys?

A) 4 days	B) 6 days
C) 7 days	D) 5 days

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4 days

Explanation:

Given that

6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days

26 men and 48 boys can do the same in 2 days

As the work done is equal,

10(6M + 8B) = 2(26M + 48B)

60M + 80B = 52M + 96B

=> M = 2B

=> B = M/2 ……(1)

Now Put (1) in 15M + 20B

=> 15M + 10M = 25M

Now, 6M + 8B in 10 days

=> (6M + 4M) 10 = 100M

Then D(25M) = 100M

=> D = 4 days.
