Q:

If Rs. 782 be divided into three parts, proportional to $\frac{1}{2} : \frac{2}{3} : \frac{3}{4}$ , then the first part is?

A) Rs. 182	B) Rs. 190
C) Rs. 192	D) Rs. 204

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Rs. 204

Explanation:

$R s . (782 * \frac{6}{23})$

Given ratio = $\frac{1}{2} : \frac{2}{3} : \frac{3}{4}$ = 6:8:9

1st part = $R s . (782 * \frac{6}{23})$ = Rs. 204

Q:

A train travelling at a speed of 75 mph enters a tunnel $3 \frac{1}{2}$ miles long. The train is $\frac{1}{4}$ mile long. How long does it take for the train to pass through the tunnel from the moment the front enters to the moment the rear emerges?

A) 2.5 min	B) 3 min
C) 3.2 min	D) 3.5 min

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3 min

Explanation:

Total distance covered = $(\frac{7}{2} + \frac{1}{4})$ miles = $\frac{15}{4}$ miles

Time taken = $(\frac{15}{4 * 75})$ hrs = $\frac{1}{20}$ hrs = $(\frac{1}{20} * 60) m i n$ = 3 min

Q:

Two trains 140 m and 160 m long run at the speed of 60 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively in opposite directions on parallel tracks. The time (in seconds) which they take to cross each other, is:

A) 9	B) 9.6
C) 10	D) 10.8

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10.8

Explanation:

Relative speed = (60 + 40) km/hr =[ 100 x ( 5 / 18 ) ]m/sec = ( 250 /9 ) m/sec.
Distance covered in crossing each other = (140 + 160) m = 300 m.
Required time = [ 300 x ( 9/250 ) ] sec = ( 54/ 5 )sec = 10.8 sec.

Q:

A man’s current age is $\frac{2}{5}$ of the age of his father. After 8 years, he will be $\frac{1}{2}$ of the age of his father. What is the age of father at now ?

A) 50	B) 40
C) 33	D) 30

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40

Explanation:

Let, father’s current age is A years.
Then, Man’s current age = $[(\frac{2}{5} * A)]$ years.

$[(\frac{2}{5} * A)]$ +8= $(\frac{1}{2}) (A + 8)$

2(2A+40) = 5(A+8)

A = 40

Q:

The difference between a positive proper fraction and its reciprocal is 9 / 20. Then the fraction is :

A) 3/5	B) 3/10
C) 4/5	D) 5/4

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4/5

Explanation:

Let the required fraction be x. Then, (1 / x )- x = 9/20
1 - x^(2) / x = 9 / 20 => 20 - 20 * x^(2) = 9 * x.
20 * x^(2) + 9 *x - 20 = 0.
=> (4 * x + 5) (5 * x - 4) = 0.
=> x = 4 / 5.

Q:

$\frac{854 * 854 * 854 - 276 * 276 * 276}{854 * 854 + 854 * 276 + 276 * 276} = ?$

A) 546	B) 578
C) 607	D) None of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 578

Explanation:

Given exp . is like this $\frac{854 * 854 * 854 - 276 * 276 * 276}{854 * 854 + 854 * 276 + 276 * 276} = ?$

so ans = 854 - 276 = 578
