Q:

Karthik read $\frac{6}{13}$ th of a book in 1st week and $\frac{5}{9}$ th of the remaining book in 2nd week. If there were 100 pages unread after 2nd week, how many pages were there in the book ?

A) 404	B) 415
C) 418	D) 420

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 418

Explanation:

Let the total book be 1

Then, in the 1st week $\frac{6}{13}$ th of book is read

i.e remaining pages = $1 - \frac{6}{13} = \frac{7}{13}$

in 2nd week he read $\frac{5}{9}$ th of it

i.e $\frac{5}{9} \times \frac{7}{13} = \frac{35}{117}$
Remaining pages after 2nd week = $\frac{7}{13} - \frac{35}{117} = \frac{28}{117}$

But given remaining pages after 2nd week = 100

$\frac{28 x}{117} = 100$

--> x = 418

The total pages in the book are 418

Q:

Raghu can complete a work in 12days working 9 hours a day. Arun can complete the same work in 8 days working 11 hours a day. If both Raghu and Arun work together, working 12 hours a day, in how many days can they complete the work ?

A) $3 \frac{4}{49} d a y s$

B) $12 \frac{4}{49} d a y s$

C) $4 \frac{3}{49} d a y s$

D) $4 \frac{12}{49} d a y s$

A) Option A	B) Option B
C) Option C	D) Option D

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Option C

Explanation:

Raghu can complete the work in (12 x 9)hrs = 108 hrs.

Arun can complete the work in (8 x 11)hrs = 88 hrs.

Raghu's 1 hrs work = 1/108 and Arun's 1 hrs work = 1/88

(Raghu + Arun)'s 1 hrs work = $(\frac{1}{108} + \frac{1}{88}) = \frac{49}{2376}$

So, both Raghu and Arun will finish the work in $\frac{2376}{49} h r s$

Number of days of 12 hours each= $(\frac{2376}{49} \times \frac{1}{12})$ = $\frac{198}{49} = 4 \frac{3}{49} d a y s$

A. $5 \frac{1}{11}$

B. $15 \frac{4}{15}$

C. $16 \frac{4}{11}$

D. $4 \frac{4}{15}$

A) Option A	B) Option B
