Q:

In a camp, there is a meal for 120 men or 200 children. If 150 children have taken the meal, how many men will be catered to with remaining meal?

A) 50	B) 40
C) 30	D) 20

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 30

Explanation:

There is a meal for 200 children. 150 children have taken the meal.

Remaining meal is to be catered to 50 children.

Now, 200 children = 120 men.

50 children = $(\frac{120}{200}) 50$ =30men

Q:

A fort had provision of food for 150 men for 45 days. After 10 days, 25 men left the fort. The number of days for which the remaining food will last, is:

A) 29/5	B) 37/4
C) 42	D) 54

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 42

Explanation:

After 10 days : 150 men had food for 35 days.

Suppose 125 men had food for x days.

Now, Less men, More days (Indirect Proportion)

125 : 150 :: 35 : x => 125 x x = 150 x 35

=>

=> x = 42.

Q:

Two ships are sailing in the sea on the two sides of a lighthouse. The angle of elevation of the top of the lighthouse is observed from the ships are 30º and 45º respectively. If the lighthouse is 100 m high, the distance between the two ships is:

A) 173 m	B) 200 m
C) 273 m	D) 300 m

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 273 m

Explanation:

Let AB be the lighthouse and C and D be the positions of the ships.

Then, AB = 100m, $∠ A C B = 30 ° a n d ∠ A D B = 45 °$

$\frac{A B}{A C} = \tan 30 ° = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} = > A C = A B * \sqrt{3} = 100 \sqrt{3 m}$

$\frac{A B}{A D} = \tan 45 ° = 1 = > A D = A B = 100 m$

CD=(AC+AD)= $(100 \sqrt{3} + 100) m = 100 (\sqrt{3} + 1) = 100 * 2.73 = 273 m$

Q:

A, B and C start at the same time in the same direction to run around a circular stadium. A completes a round in 252 seconds, B in 308 seconds and c in 198 seconds, all starting at the same point. After what time will they again at the starting point ?

A) 26 minutes and 18 seconds	B) 42 minutes and 36 seconds
C) 45 minutes	D) 46 minutes and 12 seconds

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 46 minutes and 12 seconds

Explanation:

L.C.M. of 252, 308 and 198 = 2772.

So, A, B and C will again meet at the starting point in 2772 sec. i.e., 46 min. 12 sec.

Q:

Which of the following has the most number of divisors?

A) 99	B) 101
C) 176	D) 182

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 176

Explanation:

99 = 1 x 3 x 3 x 11

101 = 1 x 101

176 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 11

182 = 1 x 2 x 7 x 13

So, divisors of 99 are 1, 3, 9, 11, 33, .99

Divisors of 101 are 1 and 101

Divisors of 176 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 16, 22, 44, 88 and 176

Divisors of 182 are 1, 2, 7, 13, 14, 26, 91 and 182.

Hence, 176 has the most number of divisors.
