Q:

A container contains 120 lit of Diesel. From this container, 12 lit of Diesel was taken out and replaced by kerosene. This process was further repeated for two times. How much diesel is now there in the container ?

A) 88.01 lit	B) 87.48 lit
C) 87.51 lit	D) 87.62 lit

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 87.48 lit

Explanation:

For these type of problems,

Quantity of Diesel remained = $(q {(1 - \frac{p}{q})}^{n})$

Here p = 12 , q = 120

=> $(120 {(1 - \frac{12}{120})}^{3})$ = 120 x 0.9 x 0.9 x 0.9 = 87.48 lit.

Q:

One-third of the boys and one-half of the girls of a college participated in a sport. If the number of participating students is 300, out of which 100 are boys. What is the total number of students in the college ?

A) 550	B) 575
C) 625	D) 700

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 700

Explanation:

Let number of boys = B

Number of girls = G

From the given data,

1B/3 + 1G/2 = 300

But given B/3 = 100

=> B = 300

G/2 = 300 - 100

G = 200 x 2

=> G = 400

Therefore, total number of students in the college = B + G = 700.

Total number of filling the vacancies = 10 x 792 = 7920
