Q:

Three graziers A,B and C rent a piece of pasture for a month. A puts in 27 cattle for 19 days, B 21 for 17 days and C 24 for 23 days. If at the end of the month the rent amount to Rs.237, how much ought to be paid by each.

Answer

A's cattle = 27 x 19 = 513


B's cattle = 21 x 17 = 357


C's cattle = 24 x 23 = 552


Ratio of cattle = 513 : 357 : 552


                    = 171 : 119 : 184


 


payment to be made by A = \inline 237\times \frac{171}{474}


                                     = Rs.85.50


payment to be made by B = \inline 237\times \frac{119}{474}


                                     = Rs.59.50


payment to be made by C = \inline 237\times \frac{184}{474}

Q:

A person starting with 64 rupees and making 6 bets, wins three times and loses three times, the wins and loses occurring in random order. The chance for a win is equal to the chance for a loss. If each wager is for half the money remaining at the time of the bet, then the final result is:

A) A gain of Rs. 27 B) A loss of Rs. 37
C) A loss of Rs. 27 D) A gain of Rs. 37
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) A loss of Rs. 37

Explanation:

As the win leads to multiplying the amount by 1.5 and loss leads to multiplying the amount by 0.5, we will multiply the initial amount by 1.5 thrice and by 0.5 thrice (in any order).

The overall resultant will remain same.

So final amount with the person will be (in all cases):

= 64(1.5)(1.5)(1.5)(0.5)(0.5)(0.5)= Rs. 27

Hence the final result is: 

64 − 27 = 37

A loss of Rs.37

Q:

Raghu can complete a work in 12days working 9 hours a day. Arun can complete the same work in 8 days working 11 hours a day. If both Raghu and Arun work together, working 12 hours a day, in how many days can they complete the work ?

A)3449 days   

B)12449 days 

C)4349 days    

D)41249 days

A) Option A B) Option B
C) Option C D) Option D
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Option C

Explanation:

Raghu can complete the work in (12 x 9)hrs = 108 hrs.

 

 Arun can complete the work in (8 x 11)hrs = 88 hrs.

 

Raghu's 1 hrs work = 1/108 and Arun's 1 hrs work = 1/88

 

(Raghu + Arun)'s 1 hrs work = 1108+188=492376

 
So, both Raghu and Arun will finish the work in 237649 hrs

Number of days of 12 hours each=237649×112 = 19849=4349 days
