A) 1 B) 2
C) 3 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3

Explanation:

Let the radius of the circle be r cm. Then, 

 

120360πr2=667

Q:

Two concentric circles form a ring. The inner and outer circumferences of ring are  5187m and 3527 m respectively. Find the width of the ring.

A) 4 B) 5
C) 6 D) 7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4

Explanation:

Let the inner and outer radii be r and R metres.

 

Then  2πR=3527=>R=3527*722*12=8m 

 

 2πR=5287=>R=5287*722*12=12m

 

=> Width of the ring = (R - r) = (12 - 8) m = 4 m.

Q:

In how many ways can 5 different toys be packed in 3 identical boxes such that no box is empty, if any of the boxes may hold all of the toys?

A) 15 B) 10
C) 25 D) 20
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 25

Explanation:

The toys are different; The boxes are identical
If none of the boxes is to remain empty, then we can pack the toys in one of the following ways
a. 2,2,1
b. 3,1,1

Case a. Number of ways of achieving the first option 2−2–1

Two toys out of the 5 can be selected in5C2 5 ways. Another 2 out of the remaining 3 can be selected in3C2 ways and the last toy can be selected in 1C1  way.

However, as the boxes are identical, the two different ways of selecting which box holds the first two toys and which one holds the second set of two toys will look the same. Hence, we need to divide the result by 2.

Therefore, total number of ways of achieving the 2−2–1 option is:

5C2*3C22=10*32=15 ways.

Case b. Number of ways of achieving the second option 3−1–1

Three toys out of the 5 can be selected in 5C3  ways. As the boxes are identical, the remaining two toys can go into the two identical looking boxes in only one way.
Therefore, total number of ways of getting the 3−1–1 option is5C3=10 ways.

Total ways in which the 5 toys can be packed in 3 identical boxes
=number of ways of achieving Case a + number of ways of achieving Case b
=15 + 10 = 25 ways

Q:

The inner circumference of a circular race track, 14 m wide, is 440 m. Find radius of the outer circle

A) 44 B) 22
C) 33 D) 84
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 84

Explanation:

Let inner radius be r metres. Then, 2πr = 440 ; r = 440×744= 70 m.

Radius of outer circle = (70 + 14) m = 84 m.

C) 12 D) 11
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 14

Explanation:

Distance covered in one revolution = 88×10001000= 88m. 

 

2πR2=88  2×227×R=88  R=88×744

Q:

The diameter of the driving wheel of a bus is 140 cm. How many revolution, per minute must the wheel make in order to keep a speed of 66 kmph ?

A) 150 B) 250
C) 350 D) 550
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 250

Explanation:

Circumference = No.of revolutions * Distance covered

 

Distance to be covered in 1 min. = (66 X1000)/60 m = 1100 m.
Circumference of the wheel = 2 x (22/7) x 0.70 m = 4.4 m.
Number of revolutions per min. =(1100/4.4) = 250.

Q:

The area of a circular field is 13.86 hectares. Find the cost of fencing it at the rate of Rs. 4.40 per metre.

A) 2808 B) 3808
C) 4808 D) 5808
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 5808

Explanation:

Area = (13.86 x 10000) sq.m = 138600 sq.m

 

πR2=138600R2=138600×722R=210m 

 

Circumference = 2πR2=2×227×210=1320m 

 

Cost of fencing = Rs. (1320 x 4.40) = Rs. 5808.

Q:

If the letters of the word CHASM are rearranged to form 5 letter words such that none of the word repeat and the results arranged in ascending order as in a dictionary what is the rank of the word CHASM ?

A) 32 B) 24
C) 72 D) 36
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 32

Explanation:

The 5 letter word can be rearranged in 5!=120 Ways without any of the letters repeating.

The first 24 of these words will start with A.

Then the 25th word will start will CA _ _ _.
The remaining 3 letters can be rearranged in 3!=6 Ways. i.e. 6 words exist that start with CA.

The next word starts with CH and then A, i.e., CHA _ _.
The first of the words will be CHAMS. The next word will be CHASM.

Therefore, the rank of CHASM will be 24+6+2= 32
