Q:

Three milkmen rented a pasture. A grazed 24 cows for 4 months; B 10 cows for 6 months; C 56 cows for 5 months. If A's share of rent is Rs. 960, find the total rent of the field?

A) 4530 B) 4440
C) 4360 D) 4280
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 4360

Explanation:

Ratio of shares of A,B,C = (24 x 4) : (10 x 6) : (56 x 5)

                                    = 96 : 60 : 280.

 

Let total rent be Rs. x. Then, A's share = Rs.96x436

 96x436=960 x=960×43696=4360

 

Hence total rent of the field is Rs. 4360.

Q:

If a number 72k23l is divisible by 88. Then find value of k and l ?

A) k=8 & l=2 B) k=7 & l=2
C) k=8 & l=3 D) k=7 & l=1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) k=7 & l=2

Explanation:

If a number to be divisile by 88, it should be divisible by both "8" and "11"

Check for '8' :
For a number to be divisible by "8", the last 3-digit should be divisible by "8"
Here 72x23y --> last 3-digit is '23y'
So y=2 [ (i.e) 232 is absolutely divisible by "8"]

Chech for '11' :
For a number to be divisible by "11" , sum of odd digits - sum of even digits should be divisible by "11"
(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + y)
(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + 2)
(10 + x) - 6 should be divisible by "11"
for x = 7
=> 17 - 6 = 11 [ which is absolutely divisible by "11"]

So x = 7 , y= 2.

A) 16/19 B) 1
C) 3/2 D) 17/20
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 17/20

Explanation:

n(S) = 20
n(Even no) = 10 = n(E)
n(Prime no) = 8 = n(P)
P(E U P) = 10/20 + 8/20 - 1/20 = 17/20

A triangle and a parallelogram are constructed on the same base such that their areas are equal. If the altitude of the parallelogram is 100 m , then the altitude of the triangle is

A) 200m B) 300m
C) 400m D) 100m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 200m

Explanation:

Let the triangle and parallelogram have common base b, 

let the Altitude of triangle is h1 and of parallelogram is h2(which is equal to 100 m), then  

Area of triangle    = 12×b×h1 

Area of rectangle  = b*h2 

As per Given,

12*b*h1=b*h2

12*b*h1=b*100

 h1=200
