Q:

A can do a work in 9 days, B can do a work in 7 days, C can do a work in 5 days. A works on the first day, B works on the second day and C on the third day respectively that is they work on alternate days. When will they finish the work ?

A) [7 + (215/345)] days B) [6 + (11/215)] days
C) [6 + (261/315)] days D) [5 + (112/351)] days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) [6 + (261/315)] days

Explanation:

After day 1, A finishes 1/9 of the work.

After day 2, B finishes 1/7 more of the total work. (1/9) + (1/7) is finished.

After day 3, C finishes 1/5 more of total work. Total finished is 143/315.

So, after day 6, total work finished is 286/315.

 

Now remaining work =  29 /315

 

On day 7, A will work again 

 

Work will be completed on day 7 when A is working. He must finish 29/315 of total remaining work.

 

Since he takes 9 days to finish the total task, he will need 261/315 of the day. 

 

Total days required is 6 + (261/315) days.

Q:

A Product is supported each week by the same three Product supporters. Last month the first supporter took 440 calls, the second took 360 calls, and the third took 300 calls. This month the job will consists of 1500 calls. If the three supporters each increase their work proportionately, how many more calls will the second supporter take this month than last month ?

A) 131 calls B) 160 calls
C) 491 calls D) 600 calls
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 131 calls

Explanation:

1st supporter recieve 440 calls
2nd supporter recieve 360 calls
3rd supporter recieve 300 calls

So total calls = 1100 calls ;
Calls this month= 1500
So remaining calls to be distributed is 400

So Now Ratio 1st:2nd:3rd ==> 440:360:300
=> 22:18:15

Now No. of More Calls 2nd supporter will get => [18/(22+18+15)] x 400
=> (18/55) x 400
=> 131 Calls
So 131 more Calls than last month.

Q:

The average number of visitors of a library in the first 4 days of a week was 58. The average for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th days was 60.If the number of visitors on the 1st and 5th days were in the ratio 8 : 9. Then what is the number of visitors on the 5th day of the library ?

A) 54 B) 64
C) 68 D) 72
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 72

Explanation:

If number of visitors on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th day are k, l, m, n & o respectively, then
k + l + m + n = 58 x 4 = 232 ---- (i) &
l + m + n + o = 60 x 4 = 240 ---- (ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get
o-k = 8 ---(iii)
Given, k/o = 8/9 ----(iv)
So from (iii) & (iv), we get
a = 64, e = 72
Therefore, number of visitors on 5th day is 72.
