Q:

The average age of A and B, 2 years ago was 26. If the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs, and B is 5 years younger to C, then find the difference between the age of A and C?

A) 11 yrs	B) 9 yrs
C) 7 yrs	D) 13 yrs

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 9 yrs

Explanation:

Let the present ages of A and B be 'x' and 'y' respectively

From the given data,

[(x-2) + (y-2)]/2 = 26

=> x+y = 56

But given the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs => present age of A = 40 - 5 = 35 yrs

=> x = 35 => y = 56 - 35 = 21

=> Age of B = 21 yrs

Given B is 5 years younger to C,

=> Age of C = 21 + 5 = 26 yrs

=> Required Difference between ages of A and C = 35 - 26 = 9 yrs.

C) 144	D) 143

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 144

Explanation:

Here the series follows,

194

194 - (1x1 - 1) = 194

194 - (2x2 - 1) = 191

191 - (3x3 - 1) = 183

183 - (4x4 - 1) = 168

168 - (5x5 - 1) = 144

Q:

A & B invest Rs. 1,16,000 & 1,44,000 respectively. B invests for 6 months. At the end of the year, B’s share is Rs. 9000, find the overall profit?

A) Rs. 23,500	B) Rs. 19,780
C) Rs. 21,700	D) Rs. 20,050

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 23,500

Explanation:

Given A & B in partnership

A Invests 116000 for 12 months

=> A's share = 116000 x 12 = 13,92,000

B Invests for 6 months

=> B's share = 144000 x 6 = 8,64,000

Their Ratio = 1392 : 864 = 29 : 18

Let the Annual profit = P

Given B's share = Rs. 9000

=> 18/47 x P = 9000

=> P = 9000 x 47/18

=> P = 23,500

Hence, Overall profit = P = Rs. 23,500

Q:

A boat running upstream takes 8 hours 48 minutes to cover a certain distance, while it takes 4 hours to cover the same distance running downstream. What is the ratio between the speed of the boat and speed of the water current respectively?

A) 7:4	B) 11:4
C) 4:7	D) 8:3

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 8:3

Explanation:

Let the speed of the boat upstream be p kmph and that of downstream be q kmph

Time for upstream = 8 hrs 48 min = $8 \frac{4}{5}$ hrs

Time for downstream = 4 hrs

Distance in both the cases is same.

=> p x $8 \frac{4}{5}$ = q x 4

=> 44p/5 = 4q

=> q = 11p/5

Now, the required ratio of Speed of boat : Speed of water current

= $\frac{q + p}{2} : \frac{q - p}{2}$

=> (11p/5 + p)/2 : (11p/5 - p)/2

=> 8 : 3
