Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Let the actual distance be t kms

Now, According to the data,

$$\begin{gathered} 5t + 860 = 6t \\ => 560t + 860 = 6t \\ => 60t + 8 = 72t \\ => 8 = 12t \\ => t = 8/12 = 2/3 hrs \end{gathered}$$

Now, the total distance = 6t = 6 x 2/3 = 2 x 2 = 4 kms.

The distance is constant in this case.

Let the time taken for travel with a speed of 10 kmph be 't'.

Now the speed of 15 kmph is 3/2 times the speed of 10 kmph.

Therefore, time taken with the speed of 15 kmph will be 2t/3 (speed is inversely proportional to time)

Extra time taken = t - 2t/3 = t/3

=> 1pm - 11am = 2hrs

=> t/3 = 2h

=> t = 6 hrs.

Now, Distance = speed x time = 10 x 6 = 60 kms

Time he takes to reach at noon = 6 - 1 = 5 hrs

Now, Speed = 60/5 = 12 kmph.

Using Trial and error method,

we get the number of girls in the hall = 78

Given number is 14278359
As given 1st and 5th digits, 2nd & 6th, 3rd & 7th and 4th & 8th digits are to to be interchanged.
Therfore, the rearranged number is 83591427
Then, the second digit from the right end is 2.

A sponge is a porous material. Rubber is an elastic material. 

Since Rubber is not a Massive or solid and not an inflexible thing, it is elastic. 

Speed of tractor = 360/12 = 30 kmph

Speed of jeep = 250 x 30/100 = 75 kmph

But, given ratio of speed of car, jeep and tractor is 3 : 5 : 2

Speed of car = 3 x 75/5 = 45 kmph

Required, average speed of car and jeep = 75 + 45/2 = 60 kmph.

Second, fourth and the sixth digits of the number are 3, 1 and 6. Using these digits only once we can make 361, which is a perfect square number. Hence, our answer is 19 x 19 = 361

Let he mixes the oils in the ratio = x : y

Then, the cost price of the oils = 60x + 65y

Given selling price = Rs. 68.20

=> Selling price = 68.20(x+y)

Given profit = 10% = SP - CP

=> 10/100 (60x + 65y) = 68.20(x+y)-(60x + 65y)

=> 6x + 6.5y = 8.20x + 3.20y

=>2.2x = 3.3y

=> x : y = 3 : 2
