Q:

A bike runs at the speed of 35 km/h when not serviced and runs at 55 km/h, when serviced. After servicing the bike covers a certain distance in 5 h. How much approximate time will the bike take to cover the same distance when not serviced?

A) 8 hrs B) 7.5 hrs
C) 7 hrs D) 6.5 hrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8 hrs

Explanation:

Given speed of the bike after servicing = 55 kmph

Time taken for travelling some distance at 55 kmph = 5 hrs

Then, 

Distance = Speed x Time = 55 x 5 = 275 kms.

Now, 

Speed of the bike before servicing = 35 kmph

Distance = 275 kms

Now, Time = Distance/Speed = 275/35 = 7.85 hrs =~ 8 hrs.

Q:

2/3 as a decimal

A) 0.47 B) 6.77
C) 0.67 D) 0.07
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 0.67

Explanation:

To convert a fraction into decimal, just take the number on top which we called the numerator and divide it by the number at the bottom which we called the denominator.

2/3

How it comes :

2 ÷ 3 = 0 bring down the decimal point.

20 ÷ 3 = 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20

20 ÷ 3 = 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20

20 ÷ 3 = 6 and carry the remainder 2 to make 20

etc...

This gives the recurring decimal 0.6666...

If we round off to two decimals , then it becomes 0.67.

 

Hence, decimal fraction of 2/3 = 0.67.

Q:

If 1/a+1/b+1/c = 1/(a+b+c) where a+b+c not equals '0', abc not equals '0', What is the value of (a+b) (b+c) (a+c) ?

A) 3 B) 2
C) 1 D) 0
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 0

Explanation:

Let assume the value of a,b &c that will satisfy the equation.
so a=1,b=1,c= -1 or a=1,b= -1 &c=1 or a= -1,b=1,c=1
here all three cases satisfy the equation
assume any one a=1,b=1,c= -1

Hence (a+b)(b+c)(c+a)=(1+1)(1-1)(-1+1) = 0
