Q:

1 Billion Seconds Equals to

A) 34.76 years B) 32.48 years
C) 33.31 years D) 31.68 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 31.68 years

Explanation:

We know that 1 year = 365.25 days

1 day = 24 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

 

=> 1 Year = 365.25 x 24 x 60 x 60 Seconds

But 1 billion seconds = ?

1 Year = 365.25 x 24 x 60 x 60 Seconds

    ?     =  1000000000 Seconds

 

? = 1000000000365.25 x 24 x 60 x 60 years = 31. 68 years.

Q:

Find the sum of the Arithmetic Series upto 36 terms

2, 5, 8, 11,...

A) 3924 B) 1962
C) 1684 D) 1452
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1962

Explanation:

Arithmetic Series ::

 

An Arithmetic Series is a series of numbers in which each term increases by a constant amount.

 

How to find the sum of the Arithmetic Sequence or Series for the given Series ::

 

When the series contains a large amount of numbers, its impractical to add manually. You can quickly find the sum of any arithmetic sequence by multiplying the average of the first and last term by the number of terms in the sequence.

 

That is given by Sn = n(a1 + an)2 Where n = number of terms, a1 = first term, an = last term

 

Here Last term is given by an = a1 + n-1d where d = common difference

 

Now given Arithmetic Series is 

 

2, 5, 8, 11,...

 

Here a1 = 2,  d = 3, n = 36 

 

Now, an= a1 + n - 1d a36= 2 + 36 - 13 = 105 + 2 = 107 

 

Now, Sum to 36 terms is given by

 

S36 = 36(2 + 107)2 = 36 x 1092 = 39242 = 1962

 

 

 

Therefore, Sum to 36 terms of the series 2, 5, 8, 11,... is 1962.

Q:

A man pays Rs. 6.40 per litre of milk. He adds water and sells the mixture at Rs. 8 per litre, thereby making 37.5% profit. The proportion of water to milk received by the customers is

A) 1 : 10 B) 10 : 1
C) 9 : 11 D) 11 : 9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1 : 10

Explanation:

Customer ratio of Milk and Water is given by

Milk          ::        Water

  6.4                         0

         81 + 38 =6411

 6411                      6410 - 6411 

=> Milk : Water = 110 : 11 = 10 : 1

 

Therefore, the proportionate of Water to Milk for Customer is 1 : 10

15, 30, ? , 40, 8, 48

A) 21 B) 8
C) 19 D) 10
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10

Explanation:

Given nuber series is 15, 30, ? , 40, 8, 48 

Here the number series follows a pattern that

15

15 x 2 = 30

30 ÷ 3 = 10

10 x 4 = 40

40 ÷ 5 = 8

8 x 6 = 48

Hence, the missing number in the series is 10.
