Q:

A group of workers was put on a job. From the second day onwards, one worker was withdrawn each day. The job was finished when the last worker was withdrawn. Had no worker been withdrawn at any stage, the group would have finished the job in 55% of the time. How many workers were there in the group?

A) 50 B) 40
C) 45 D) 10
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 10

Explanation:

Let the number of workers be x.

Now, Using work equivalence method,

X + (X-1) + (X-2)+ . . . . + 1 = X *55% of X

 

=> [X * (X+1)] / 2 = X * (55X/100)    [because, Series is in AP. Sum of AP = {No. of terms (first term+ last term)/2} ]

Therefore, X = 10

Q:

Mr. stenley employed a certain number of typist for his project. 8 days later 20% of the typist left the job and it was found that it took as much time to complete the rest work from then as the entire work needed with all the employed typists. The average speed of a typist is 20 pages/hour. Minimum how many typist could be employed? 

A) 10 B) 5
C) 15 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 5

Explanation:

Since 20% i.e 1/5 typists left the job. So, there can be any value which is multiple of 5 i.e, whose 20% is always an integer. Hence, 5 is the least possible value.

Q:

A single reservoir supplies the petrol to the whole city, while the reservoir is fed by a single pipeline filling the reservoir with the stream of uniform volume. When the reservoir is full and if 40,000 liters of petrol is used daily, the suply fails in 90 days.If 32,000 liters of petrol is used daily, it fails in 60 days. How much petrol can be used daily with out the supply ever failing? 

A) 64000 liters B) 56000 liters
C) 78000 liters D) 60000 liters
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 56000 liters

Explanation:

Let x liter be the per day filling and v litr be the capacity of the reservoir, then 

      90x + v = 40000 * 90     -----(1)

      60x + v= 32000 * 60     ------(2)

solving eq.(1) and (2) , we get

      x = 56000

Hence , 56000 liters per day can be used without the failure of supply.

Q:

In a mixture of milk and water, there is only 26% water. After replacing the mixture with 7 liters of pure milk , the percentage of milk in the mixture  become 76%. The quantity of mixture is:

A) 65 liters B) 91 liters
C) 38 liters D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 91 liters

Explanation:

         Milk             Water 

         74%             26%        (initially) 

         76%             24%        ( after replacement) 

 

  Left amount = Initial amount 1-replaced amounttotal amount 

   24  = 261-7k

=> k = 91

Q:

The diluted wine contains only 8 liters of wine and the rest is water. A new mixture whose concentration is 30%, is to be  formed by replacing wine. How many liters of mixture shall be replaced with pure wine if there was initially 32 liters of water in the mixture ?

A) 4 B) 5
C) 8 D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 5

Explanation:

           Wine                         Water

            8L                              32L

            1                :               4

           20 %                           80% (original ratio)

           30 %                           70% (required ratio)

 

In  ths case, the percentage of water being reduced when the mixture is being replaced with wine.

 

so the ratio of left quantity to the initial quantity is 7:8

 

Therefore , 78=1-K40

 

=> K = 5 Lit
