Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

As A1 speaks always after A2, they can speak only in  1st  to 9th places and 

A2 can speak in 2nd to 10 the places only when A1 speaks in 1st place 

A2 can speak in 9 places the remaining 

 A3, A4, A5,...A10  has no restriction. So, they can speak in 9.8! ways. i.e

when A2 speaks in the first place, the number of ways they can speak is 9.8!.

When A2 speaks in second place, the number of ways they can speak is  8.8!.

When A2 speaks in third place, the number of ways they can speak is  7.8!. When A2 speaks in the ninth place, the number of ways they can speak is 1.8!

Therefore,Total Number of ways they can  speak = (9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1) 8! = 92(9+1)8! = 10!/2

15! - 14! - 13!

= (15 × 14 × 13!) - (14 × 13!) - (13!)

= 13! (15 × 14 - 14 - 1)

= 13! (15 × 14 - 15)

= 13! x 15 (14 - 1)

= 15 × 13 × 13!

Ratio of times taken by A and B = 160 : 100
A can do the work in 12 days
Let B can do the work in "D" days
=> 160:100 = 12 : D
=> D = 12 x 100/160 = 7.5 hrs

Let t be the usual time. If the usual rate is 1 unit, then the unusual rate is 6/7.
Balance by the distance,
1 x t = (6/7)(t + 30)
7t = 6(t + 30)
we get t as,
t = 180 minutes = 3 hrs.

Let number of boys = B

Number of girls = G

From the given data,

1B/3 + 1G/2 = 300

But given B/3 = 100

=> B = 300

G/2 = 300 - 100

G = 200 x 2

=> G = 400

Therefore, total number of students in the college = B + G = 700.

i=j/m

FV
= PV(1+  i)^n

We know 60 min = 1 hr
Total northward Laxmi's distance = 20kmph x 1hr = 20 km
Total southward Prasanna's distance = 30kmph x 1hr = 30 km
Total distance between Prasanna and Laxmi is = 20 + 30 = 50 km.
