Q:

Main street high school has 10 members on its football team and 14 members on its science club. 5 members at the school belong to both the football and science teams. How many students belong to only science club team or football team?

A) 9 B) 14
C) 24 D) 21
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 9

Explanation:

Given that,

Members in football team = n(f) = 10

Members in science club = n(s) = 14

Members in both football team and science club = n(f ^ s) = 5

 

Then, Members in only football team = n(F) = 10 - 5 = 5

Members in only science team = n(S) = 14 - 5 = 9

Hence, members in only football or science team = n(FUS) = n(F) + n(S) - n(f^s) 

= 9 + 5 - 5

= 9.

 

Hence, many students belong to only science club team or football team = 9.

A) 7 hrs B) 6 hrs 10 min
C) 5 hrs 25min D) 8 hrs 15 min

A can write in 1hour = 32/6 pages

Similarly, B in 1 hour = 40/5 pages

Together (A+B) in 1 hour = 32/6 + 40/5 = 40/3

So, A+B write 40/3 pages in 1 hour

A+B write 110 pages in (3/40) x 110 Hours = 8 hours 15 min.

Q:

A drink vendor has 80 liters of Mazza, 144 liters of Pepsi, and 368 liters of Sprite. He wants to pack them in cans, so that each can contains the same number of liters of a drink, and doesn't want to mix any two drinks in a can. What is the least number of cans required?

A) 35 B) 36
C) 37 D) 38
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 37

Explanation:

If we want to pack the drinks in the least number of cans possible, then each can should contain the maximum numbers of liters possible.As each can contains the same number liters of a drink, the number of liters in each can is a comman factor for 80,144 and 368; and it is also the highest such factor, as we need to store the maximum number of liters in each can.

So, the number of liters in each can  = HCF of 80,144 and 368 = 16 liters.

Now, number of cans of Maaza = 80/16 = 5

Number of cans of Pepsi = 144/16 = 9

Number of cans of Sprite = 368/16 = 23

Thus, the total number of cans required = 5 + 9 + 23 = 37
