Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Given that Rs. 1860 will become Rs. 2641.20 at 12%

=> Simple Interest = 2641.20 - 1860 = Rs. 781.20

We know I = PTR/100

=> 781.20 x 100 = 1860 x T x 12

=> T = 78120/1860x12

=> T = 78120/22320

=> T = 3.5 years.

a = 12×15×12 = 90 sq.cm  

b = 2a = 12×20×h  

h= 18cm

1 million distinct 3 digit initials are needed.

Let the number of required alphabets in the language be ‘n’.

Therefore, using ‘n’ alphabets we can form n * n * n = n3 distinct 3 digit initials.

Note distinct initials is different from initials where the digits are different.

For instance, AAA and BBB are acceptable combinations in the case of distinct initials while they are not permitted when the digits of the initials need to be different.

This n3 different initials = 1 million 

i.e. n3=106  (1 million = 106)

  => n = 102 = 100

Hence, the language needs to have a minimum of 100 alphabets to achieve the objective.

Let width = x

Then, height = 6x and length = 42x 

42x * 6x * x = 16128

x = 4

Let Karan’s present age be x years and Shiva’s present age be y years.
Then, according to the first condition,
x - 10 = 3(y - 10) or x - 3y = - 20 ..(1)
Now, Karan’s age after 10 years = (x + 10) years
Shiva’s age after 10 years = (y + 10)
(x + 10) = 2 (y + 10) or x - 2y = 10 ..(2)
Solving (1) and (2), we get x = 70 and y = 30
Karan’s age = 70 years and Shiva’s age = 30 years.

Making education free can not ensure full literacy. So argument I is vague. Argument II stands strong.

2ab=a2+b2-a2-b2

29-9=20

=>ab=10
