(60 x 30 x 8)/ 150 = (35 x D2 x 6) / 200
D2 = (60 x 30 x 8 x 200) / (150 x 35 x 6) => D2 = 91.42 days =~ 91.5 days.

Q:

A supplier supplies cartridges to a news paper publishing house. He earns a profit of 25% by selling cartridges for Rs. 1540. Find the cost price of the Cartridges ?

A) Rs. 1100 B) Rs. 1793.4
C) Rs. 1440 D) Rs. 1232
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Rs. 1232

Explanation:

Let Cost Price(C.P) = P
gain% = {(S.P-C.P)/C.P} x 100
25 = {(1540-P)/P} x 100
25/100 = (1540-P)/P
=> P = 4(1540)-4P
=> 5P = 4(1540)
=> P = 1232
So, Cost Price = Rs. 1232

A) 1 B) 2
C) 4 D) 5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1

Q:

The probabilities that A and B will tell the truth are 2 / 3 and 4 / 5 respectively . What is the probability that they agree with each other ?

A) 3/5 B) 1/3
C) 2/5 D) 3/4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 3/5

Explanation:

Let A be the event of A will tell truth. B be the event of B tell truth

 

 P(A)=23,P(Ac)=1-P(A)=13

 

 

 

P(B)=45,P(Bc)=1-P(B)=15 

 

When both agree then they say true or they say false together, that is 

 

 A∩B or Ac∩Bc

 

 

 

Also these events will be mutually exclusive :

 

 P(A∩B)+P(Ac∩Bc)=P(A)P(B)P(C)=23*45+13*15=35
