Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

We know that,

Total number of balls n(S) = 26

Number of vowels n(E) = 5

Hence, required probability = n(E)/n(S) = 5/26.

A team of 6 members has to be selected from the 10 players. This can be done in 10C6 or 210 ways.

Now, the captain can be selected from these 6 players in 6 ways.
Therefore, total ways the selection can be made is 210×6= 1260

Given that to find 15 of 80

=> What % of 80 is 15

Let it be 'p'

=> p% of 80 = 15

=> $$\begin{gathered} p x 80100 = 15 \\ ⇒p = 15 x 10080 \\ ⇒p = 150080 = 18.75 \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, 15 is 18.75% of 80 => 18.75% of 80 = 15

Example::

Now, in the similar way we can find 15% of 80 =?

=> 15x80/100 = p

=> p = 4 x 3 = 12

Therefore, 15% of 80 = 12

Let the side of the square be 's' cm

length of rectangle = (s+5) cm

breadth of rectangle = (s-3)cm

(s+5) (s-3) = 

s2 - 5s - 3s - 15 = s2 

2s = 15

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(L+B) = 2(s+5 + s–3) = 2(2s + 2)

= 2(15 + 2) = 34 cm 

We know that, 

The area of a triangle with two sides given and included angle

A = 1/2 x product of sides x Sin(angle) 

Here the two sides are 8 & 12

Angle = 150

Area = 1/2 x 8 x 12 x sin150

Sin(150) = sin(90+60) = cos(60) = 1/2

A = 48 x 1/2 = 24

Area of the given triangle = 24 sq units.

Given word is SCOOTY

ATQ,

Except S & Y number of letters are 4(C 2O's T)

Hence, required number of arrangements = 4!/2! x 2! = 4!

= 4 x 3 x 2

= 24 ways.

$$\begin{gathered} 78 x 448 + 67 x 3374 \\ => 392 + 2892 \\ => 3284 \end{gathered}$$

Let the speed of the train be 'S' kmph

From the given data,

Distance = Length of train = D = 200 mts = 200 x 18/5 kms

Time = 10 sec

given speed of the motorcycler = 12 kmph

Relative speed as they are moving in the same direction = (S - 12) kmph

$$\begin{gathered} (S- 12) = 200 x 18515 \\ S - 12 = 48 \\ S = 60 kmph \\ \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the speed of the train = S = 60 kmph

Now,

Let the speed of the jeep be 'x' kmph

$$\begin{gathered} 60 - x = 200 x 18520 \\ 60 - x = 36 \\ x = 60 - 36 \\ x = 24 kmph \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the speed of the jeep = x = 24 kmph.
