Q:

Solve 30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

A) 24.750 B) 36.975
C) 34.652 D) 26.354
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 36.975

Explanation:

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

 

Now

=> 0.0825 x 30 = 2.475 -----(1)

=> 15% of 30 = 450/100 = 4.5 -----(2) 

 

Hence, from (1) & (2)

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30)

= 30 + 2.475 + 4.5

30 + (.0825 x 30) + (15% x 30) = 36.975.

Q:

What was the day on 16th June,1993?

A) Saturday B) Monday
C) Wednesday D) Friday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Wednesday

Explanation:

16 June, 1993 = (1992 years + Period from 1.1.1993 to 16.6.1993)

Odd days in 1600 years = 0

Odd days in 300 years = 1

92 years = (69 ordinary years + 23 leap year) = (69 x 1 + 23 x 2)= 3 odd days

Jan. Feb. March April May June

(31 + 28 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 16 ) = 167 days

167 days = (23 weeks + 6 days) =6 odd days.

Total number of odd days = (0 + 1 + 3 + 6) = 3 odd days.

Given day is Wednesday.
