Q:

The cost of Type 1 rice is Rs. 15 per kg and Type 2 rice is Rs.20 per kg. If both Type 1 and Type 2 are mixed in the ratio of 2 : 3, then the price per kg of the mixed variety of rice is

A) Rs. 19.50 B) Rs. 19
C) Rs. 18 D) Rs. 18.50
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 18

Explanation:

Let the price of the mixed variety be Rs. x per kg. By the rule of alligation, we have :

 

Cost of 1 kg of type 1 rice           Cost of 1 kg of type 2 rice  

 

 

 

 

(20-x)/(x-15) = 2/3 

 60 - 3x = 2x - 30

  x = 18.

Q:

152, 124, 96, 69, 40

Find the odd man out?

A) 124 B) 96
C) 69 D) 40
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 69

Explanation:

The given number series is 152, 124, 96, 69, 40

152

152 - 28 = 124

124 - 28 = 96

96 - 28 = 68 (not 69)

68 - 28 = 40

 

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 69.
