Q:

In how many ways can the letters of the word EDUCATION be rearranged so that the relative position of the vowels and consonants remain the same as in the word EDUCATION?

A) 4! x 4! B) 5! x 5!
C) 4! x 5! D) 3! x 4!
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4! x 5!

Explanation:

The word EDUCATION is a 9 letter word, with none of the letters repeating.

The vowels occupy 3rd,5th,7th and 8th position in the word and the remaining 5 positions are occupied by consonants

As the relative position of the vowels and consonants in any arrangement should remain the same as in the word EDUCATION, the vowels can occupy only the afore mentioned 4 places and the consonants can occupy1st,2nd,4th,6th and 9th positions.

The 4 vowels can be arranged in the 3rd,5th,7th and 8th position in 4! Ways.

Similarly, the 5 consonants can be arranged in1st,2nd,4th,6th and 9th position in5! Ways.

Hence, the total number of ways = 4! × 5!

Q:

A goods train runs at the speed of 72 kmph and crosses a 250 m long platform in 26 seconds. What is the length of the goods train?

A) 230 m B) 240 m
C) 260 m D) 270 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 270 m

Explanation:

Speed =[ 72 x (5/18) ]m/sec= 20 m/sec.

Time = 26 sec.

Let the length of the train be x metres.

Then,[ (x+250)/26 ]= 20

=> x + 250 = 520

=> x = 270.

Q:

A speaks truth in 75% of cases and B in 80% of cases. In what percentage of cases are they likely to contradict each other, narrating the same incident

A) 30/100 B) 35/100
C) 45/100 D) 50/100
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 35/100

Explanation:

Let   A = Event that A speaks the truth

B = Event that B speaks the truth 


Then P(A) = 75/100 = 3/4

P(B) = 80/100 = 4/5

P(A-lie) = 1-34= 1/4 

P(B-lie) = 1-45= 1/5

 

Now, A and B contradict each other =[A lies and B true] or [B true and B lies]

 = P(A).P(B-lie) + P(A-lie).P(B) 

 = 35*15+14*45=720  

 = 720*100= 35%
