Q:

What time will it be 18 hours from now in India, if in the USA it is 4:15 AM?

(Hint : IST = US + 9:30 hrs)

A) 1:45 in the afternoon B) 7:45 in the evening
C) 7:45 in the next morning D) 1:45 in the next morning
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7:45 in the next morning

Explanation:

We know that the time difference between India and USA is 9 hrs 30 min.

India is 9:30 hrs ahead of USA.

Time in India = 4:15 + 9:30 = 13:45 PM.

Required Time after 18 hrs = 13:45 + 18 hrs = 7:45 AM.

 

Hence it is 7:45 AM on the next morning.

Q:

Ajay and Vijay have some marbles with them. Ajay told Vijay "if you give me 'x' marbles, both of us will have equal number of marbles". Vijay then told Ajay "if you give me twice as many marbles, I will have 30 more marbles than you would". Find 'x'  ?

A) 4 B) 10
C) 8 D) 5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 5

Explanation:

If Vijay gives 'x' marbles to Ajay then Vijay and Ajay would have V - x and A + x marbles.
V - x = A + x --- (1)
If Ajay gives 2x marbles to Vijay then Ajay and Vijay would have A - 2x and V + 2x marbles.
V + 2x - (A - 2x) = 30 => V - A + 4x = 30 --- (2)
From (1) we have V - A = 2x
Substituting V - A = 2x in (2)
6x = 30 => x = 5.
