Q:

The length of a rectangle is halved, while its breadth is tripled. What is the percentage change in area?

A) 25% increase	B) 50% increase
C) 50% decrease	D) 75% decrease

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 50% increase

Explanation:

Let original length = x and original breadth = y.

Original area = xy.

New length = x/2 and New breadth = 3y.

New area = (x/2 * 3y) = (3/2 )xy

Therefore, Increase % = [(1/2)xy * (1/xy) * 100] % = 50%

Q:

K is 4 times as fast as L and working together, they can complete a work in 24 days. In how many days can L alone complete the work ?

A) 30 days	B) 40 days
C) 120 days	D) 80 days

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 30 days

Explanation:

Given K=4L

-->K+L = 4L+L = 5L

These 5L people can complete the work in 24 days, which means L alone can do the work in (24 x 5)=120 days.

Hence, K alone can do the work in 120/4= 30 days.

Q:

Two persons K and L can complete a piece of work in 30 days and 45 days respectively. If they work together, what part of the work will be completed in 3 days ?

A) 1/6	B) 1/3
C) 2/3	D) 1/18

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1/6

Explanation:

K's one day's work = 1/30
L's one day's work = 1/45
(K + L)'s one day's work = 1/30 + 1/45 = 1/18

The part of the work completed in 3 days = 3 (1/18) = 1/6.

Q:

A bag contains 5 red smileys, 6 yellow smileys and 3 green smileys. If two smileys are picked at random, what is the probability that both are red or both are green in colour?

A) 7	B) 1/7
C) 3/7	D) 0

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1/7

Explanation:

Given total number of smileys = 5 + 6 + 3 = 14

Now, required probability =

$\frac{5 C_{2}}{14 C_{2}} + \frac{3 C_{2}}{14 C_{2}} = \frac{10}{91} + \frac{3}{91} = \frac{13}{91} = \frac{1}{7}$
