Q:

A contractor undertakes to complete a work in 130 days. He employs 150 men for 25 days and they complete 1/4 of the work . He then reduces the number of men to 100, who work for 60 days, after which there are 10 days holidays.How many men must be employed for the remaining period to finish the work?

Answer

150 men in 25 days do = $\frac{1}{4}$ work

Let 1 man in 1 day does = x work

Total work done by 150 men in 25 days = 150x * 25 = $\frac{1}{4}$ work => x = $\frac{1}{15000}$

Therefore, 100 men in 60 days do = 100 * 60x = 6000x work = 6/15 = 2/5

Total work done = $\frac{1}{4} + \frac{2}{5} = \frac{13}{20}$

Therefore, Remaining work = 1 - $\frac{13}{20}$ = $\frac{7}{20}$

Remaining time = 130 - (25+60+10) = 35 days

Therefore, work is done in 25 days by 150 men.

Therefore, Work is done in 35 days by 150 men.

Hence, he should employ 50 more men.

Q:

The average monthly salary of the employees of a firm is Rs.60 out of the employees 12 officers get an average of Rs.400 per month and the rest an average of Rs. 56 per month , Find the number of emp

Answer

Actual average salary of 12 officers = 400

$\inline \fn_jvn \therefore$ Total salary of 12 officers = 400 x 12 = 4800

Average of these 12 officers as a whole =60

Total salary of 12 officers as a whole = 60 x 12 = 720

The total salary of rest = 4800 - 720 = 4080

Difference in average of the rest of officers = 60 - 56 = 4

Rest of the officers = $\inline \fn_jvn \frac{4080}{4}=1020$

Total number of employees = 1020 + 12 = 1032

$\frac{1}{5}\times (x+x-11)=9$

$\inline \fn_jvn \Rightarrow$ x = 28

$\inline \fn_jvn \therefore$ Another Number is (28 - 11) = 17

Q:

A number when divided by 779 gives a remainder 47. By dividing the same number by 19, what would be the remainder?

Answer

Number = ( 779 x a) + 47, where "a" is the quotient

= (19 x 41 x a) + (19 x 2) + 9

= 19 x (41a + 2) + 9

= 19 x (New quotient) + 9

$\inline \fn_jvn \therefore$ Required remainder = 9
