Q:

There are two examinations rooms P and Q. If 10 students are sent from P to Q, then the number of students in each room is the same. If 20 candidates are sent from Q to P, then the number of students in P is double the number of students in Q. The number of students in room Q is ?

A) 100	B) 70
C) 120	D) 80

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 80

Explanation:

If 'k' is number of students in P and 'l' is number of students in Q, then
From the given conditions, we have
=> k - 10 = l + 10 .......(1)
=> k + 20 = 2(l - 20) ....(2)

Solving these eqns, we get
k = 100 and l = 80.
Therefore, number of students in class Q is 80.

Q:

At a dinner party every two guests used a bowl of rice between them, every three guests used a bowl of dal between them and every four used a bowl of meat between them. There were altogether 65 dishes. How many guests were present at the party ?

A) 60	B) 74
C) 82	D) 58

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 60

Explanation:

Let,

no. of rice bowl = x
no. of dal bowl = y
no. of meat bowl = z

Then, x + y + z = 65 ....(1)

Also given that, 2x = 3y = 4z

substituting value of y & z in terms of x i.e. y = 2x/3 and z = x/2 in eq (1),
We get x = 30.

As 1 rice bowl is shared between 2 guests,
Therefore, there are 60 guests.
