55 min. spaces are covered in 60 min.

60 min. spaces are covered in min. = min.

Loss in 64 min. = min.

Loss in 24 hrs = min. = min.

All the boxes contain distinct number of chocolates.
For each combination of 4 out of 8 boxes, the box with the greatest number has to be given to the first person, the box with the second highest to the second person and so on.

The number of ways of giving 4 boxes to the 4 person is: 8C4= 70

Part filled in 4 minutes = 4(1/15 + 1/20) = 7/15

Remaining part = 1 - 7/15 = 8/15

Part filled by B in 1 minute = 1/20

1/20 : 8/15 :: 1 : k

k = (8/15 )x 1 x 20 = 10( 2/3) min = 10 min 40 sec.

The tank will be full in (4 min. + 10 min. 40 sec) = 14 min 40 sec.

Angle between hands of a clock

When the minute hand is behind the hour hand, the angle between the two hands at M minutes past H 'o clock

=> 30H-M5+M2 degrees

Here H = 4, M = 15 and the minute hand is behind the hour hand.

Hence the angle

 = 30[4-(15/5)]+15/2 = 30(1)+7.5 = 37.5 degrees

Let the number be 'x'.

x+x22 = 11x
x2= 22x
=> x = 22.

Calculating Age has 2 conditions. Let your Birthday is on January 1st.

1. If the month in which you are born is completed in the present year i.e, your birthday, then

Your Age = Present year - Year you are born 

As of now, present year = 2018

i.e, Age = 2018 - 1995 = 23 years.

2. If the month in which you are born is not completed in the present year i.e, your birthday, then

Your Age = Last year - Year you are born

As of now, present year = 2018

i.e, Age = 2017 - 1995 = 22 years.

The distance to be covered = Sum of their lengths = 200 + 300 = 500 m.

Relative speed = 72 -36 = 36 kmph = 36 x 5/18 = 10 mps.

Time required = d/s = 500/10 = 50 sec.

Suppose total votes polled is x
