Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Beipanjiang Bridge

Three years in the making, it's estimated to have cost the Chinese government around 1 billion yuan (or US$144 million).The bridge is going to cut travel times between Liupanshui in the Guizhou province and Xuanwei in the Yunnan province to two hours instead of the current five – as long as you don't mind the heights.The bridge crosses the the Nizhu river, and to give you some idea of the size of the drop down to the water below, it's almost 2 Eiffel Towers or one-and-a-half Empire State Buildings.

Q:

A sum of Rs.1890 has to be used to give 9 prizes to the customers of a super market for their overall academic purchases. If each prize is Rs.30 less than its preceding price, what is the least value of the price ?

A) 90 B) 95
C) 85 D) 80
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 90

Explanation:

Let the least value of the prize = Rs. x

Then the next value of the prize is x+30 , x+60, x+90, ....x+240.

Given total amount of cash prizes = Rs.1890

--> x + (x+30) + (x+60) + (x+90) + ....+ (x+240) = 1890

--> 9x + (30 + 60 + 90 + 120 + 150 + 180 + 210 + 240) = 1890

--> 9x + 30(1 + 2 + 3 + 4....+ 8) = 1890

--> 9x + 30(36) = 1890

--> 9x = 810 --> x=90

Hence the least value of the prize x=90

Q:

K and L start the business, with L investing the total capital of Rs. 40,000 on the condition that K pays L interest @ 8% per annum on his half of the capital. L is a working partner and receives Rs.1200 per month from the total profit and any profit reamaining is equally shared by both of them. At the end of the year, it was found that the income of L is twice that of K. Find the total profit for the year ?

A) Rs.44000 B) Rs.46400
C) Rs.480800 D) Rs.46000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.46400

Explanation:

Interest received by L from K = 8% of half of Rs.40,000  

8100×20000=1600  

 

Amount received by L per annum for being a working partner = 1200 x 12 = Rs.14,400

 

Let 'A' be the part of remaing profit that 'L' receives as his share.

 

 Total income of 'K' = only his share from the reamaing profit

 

                              = 'A', as both share equally.

 

Given income of L = Twice the income of K

 

--> (1600 + 14400 + A ) = 2A

--> A= Rs.16000

Thus total profit = 2A + Rs.14,400= 2(16000) + 14400 

                                                  = 32000 +14400 = Rs.46,400.

A man rows his boat 60 km downstream and 30 km upstream taking 3 hrs each time. Find the speed of the stream ?

A) 5 kmph B) 10 kmph
C) 15 kmph D) 45 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 5 kmph

Explanation:

Speed of the boat downstream  s=a/t= 60/3 = 20 kmph

Speed of the boat upstream s= d/t = 30/3= 10 kmph

 

Therefore,  The speed of the stream = speed of downstream - speed of upstream2=5 kmph

Q:

Mr. Karthik drives to work at an average speed of 48 km/hr. Time taken to cover the first 60% of the distance is 20 minutes more than the time taken to cover the remaining distance. Then how far is his office ?

A) 40 km B) 50 km
C) 70 km D) 80 km
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 80 km

Explanation:

Let the total distance be 'x' km.

Time taken to cover remaining 40% of x distance is   t1=40×x100×48


But given time taken to cover first 60% of x distance is   t2=t1+2060hrs

 t2=60×x100×48

60×x100×48= 40×x100×48+2060

 x=80 km.
