A) 52.5 B) 62.5
C) 72.5 D) 82.5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 62.5

Explanation:

Let the capacity of 1 bucket = x.

 

 

 

Then, capacity of tank = 25x.

 

 

 

New capacity of bucket  = (2/5)x

 

 

 

Required no of buckets = 25x/(2x/5)  = 62.5

Q:

Two dice are thrown together .What is the probability that the sum of the number on the two faces is divided by 4 or 6.

A) 7/18 B) 14/35
C) 8/18 D) 7/35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 7/18

Explanation:

Clearly, n(S) = 6 x 6 = 36
Let E be the event that the sum of the numbers on the two faces is divided by 4 or 6.
Then,E = {(1,3),(1,5),(2,2),(2,4),(2,6),(3,1),(3,3),(3,5),(4,2),(4,4),(5,1),(5,3),(6,2),(6,6)}
n(E) = 14.
Hence, P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 14/36 = 7/18

Q:

Two trains are running in opposite directions in the same speed. The length of each train is 120 meter. If they cross each other in 12 seconds, the speed of each train (in km/hr) is

A) 42 B) 36
C) 28 D) 20
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 36

Explanation:

Distance covered = 120+120 = 240 m

Time = 12 s

Let the speed of each train = v. Then relative speed = v + v = 2v

2v = distance/time = 240/12 = 20 m/s

Speed of each train = v = 20/2 = 10 m/s

= 10 × 36/10 km/hr = 36 km/hr
