Q:

In what time would a cistern be filled by three pipes which diameters are 2 cm, 3 cm and 4 cm running together, when the largest alone can fill it is 58 minutes? The amount of water flowing in each pipe is proportional to the square of its diameter.

A) 26 min B) 32 min
C) 36 min D) 42 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 32 min

Explanation:

Given that the diameters of the three pipes are 2 cm, 3 cm and 4 cm

From the given data,

Amount of water from three pipes is 4 units, 9 units and 16 units.

Let the capacity of cistern be 'p' units.

∴ p/58 = 16

⇒ p = 928 units.

 

In 1 minute, quantity to be filled by 3 pipes = 29 units

∴ Total time required = 928/29 = 32 minutes.

Q:

Mr. Rajan invested Rs 1,00,000 in US Stock Markets when the GBPINR rate was 75. After one year his investment appreciated by 20% in GBP terms. He sold of his investments and repatriated the money to India at the then existing rate of 80. what was real returns in INR?

A) loss of 24% B) gain of 28%
C) loss of 28% D) gain of 20%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) gain of 28%

Explanation:

Money invested by Rajan before 1 year was = Rs. 100000

Money in UK pounds @ 75 is = 100000/75 = 1333.33 Pounds

 

Now, after 1 year invested amount was appreciated by 20%

=> 20% of 1333.33 = 266.66

 

Total investment becomes = 1333.33 + 266.66 = 1600 Pounds

This 1600 Pounds @ Indian currency at 80 = 1600 x 80 = Rs. 1,28,000

 

Hence, Rajan's investment of Rs. 1,00,000 becomes Rs. 1,28,000 in 1 year

 

Therefore, his profit % = [(128000 - 100000)/100000] x 100 = 28%.
