Q:

12 men can complete a work in 8 days. 16 women can complete the same work in 12 days. 8 men and 8 women started working  and worked for 6 days. How many more men are to be added to complete the remaining work in 1 day?

A) 8 B) 12
C) 16 D) 24
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 12

Explanation:

1 man's 1 day work =1/96 ; 1 woman's 1 day work = 1/192

Work done in 6 days=6896+8192=6×18 =34 

Remaining work = 1/4

(8 men +8 women)'s 1 day work = 1896+8192 =1/8

Remaining work =1/4 -  1/8 = 1/8

 

 1/96 work is done in 1 day by 1 man

 

Therefore, 1/8 work will be done in 1 day by 96 x (1/8) =12 men

A) 777 B) 666

82% of 180 = 82x180/100 = 147.60

32% of 90 = 32x90/100

487.20 + 147.6 - 28.8  =  ?

? = 634.8  - 28.8

? = 606.

Q:

A sum of money amounts to Rs.6690 after 3 years and to Rs.10,035 after 6 years on compound interest.find the sum.

A) 4360 B) 4460
C) 4560 D) 4660
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4460

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs.P.then
P(1+R/100)^3=6690…(i) and P(1+R/100)^6=10035…(ii)
On dividing,we get (1+R/100)^3=10025/6690=3/2.
Substituting this value in (i),we get:
P*(3/2)=6690 or P=(6690*2/3)=4460
Hence,the sum is rs.4460.
