Q:

Tanks A and B are each in the shape of a right circular cylinder. The interior of tank A has a height of 10 meters and a circumference of 8 meters, and the interior of tank B has a height of 8 meters and a circumference of 10 meters. The capacity of tank A is what percent of the capacity of tank B ?

A) 76%	B) 72%
C) 80%	D) 82%

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 80%

Explanation:

circumference of A = $2 πr$ = 8 => so r = $\frac{4}{π}$
volume = $π \times {(\frac{4}{π})}^{2} \times 10$ = $\frac{160}{π}$
circumference of B = $2 πr$ = 10 => so r = $\frac{5}{π}$
volume = $π \times {(\frac{5}{π})}^{2} \times 8$ = $\frac{200}{π}$
so ratio of capacities = 160/200 = 0.8
so capacity of A will be 80% of the capacity of B.

Q:

Two bus tickets from city K to L and three tickets from city K to M cost Rs. 77, but three tickets from city K to L and two tickets from city K to M cost Rs. 73. What are the fares for cities L and M from K ?

A) Rs. 13 and Rs. 17	B) Rs. 17 and Rs. 19
C) Rs. 23 and Rs. 17	D) Rs. 13 and Rs. 19

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 13 and Rs. 17

Explanation:

If fares for cities L and M from K are x and y respectively, then

2x + 3y = 77 or 6x + 9y = 231...(1)
3x + 2y = 73 or 6x + 4y = 146...(2)

subtracting 2 from 1, we get

5y = 85

y = Rs. 17 => x = Rs. 13
