Q:

A contractor undertook to complete a piece of work in 120 Days and employed 140 men upon it. At the end of 66 days only half of the work was done,so he put on 25 extra men. By how much time did he exceed the specific time ?

A) 2 days B) 3 days
C) 4 days D) 5 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 2 days

Explanation:

work done=total number of person x number of days;
half of work done = 140 x 66;
For half of remaining work 25 extra men are added.
Therefore, total men for half work remaining = 140 + 25 = 165;
Let 2nd half work will be completed in K days;
140 x 66 = 165 x K
K = 122;
Hence, extra days => 122-120 = 2days.

A) 14.66% B) 16.66%
C) 20% D) 33.33%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 14.66%

Explanation:

There is no need to use the no of goats i.e (34,398). let initially thete be 1000 goats then 

 

  1000 -----> 1400 -----> 980 -----> 1274 ----->1146.6

 

Thus the % increase = (1146.6-1000)/100 x 100= 14.66%

Q:

An Engine length 1000 m moving at 10 m/s. A bird is flying from engine to end with 'x' m/s and coming back at '2x' m/s. Take total time of bird travelling as 187.5 s. Find x and 2x in km/hr ?

A) 21.4 and 42.8 B) 25.2 and 50.4
C) 31.4208 and 62.8416 D) 33.12 and 66.24
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 31.4208 and 62.8416

Explanation:

Birds speeds in mtrs/sec is 'x' and '2x' .
While flying from Engine to end, relative speed = (x+10) m/sec
from end to engine, flying speed = (2x - 10) mtr/sec
so
1000/(x+10) + 1000/(2x-10) = 187.5 secs
solving it, we get
so x = 8.728 m/sec and 2x= 17.456 m/sec

x = 31.4208 km/hr and 2x = 62.8416 km/hr.

Q:

Find the principal if the interest compounded at the rate of 10% per annum for two years is Rs. 420 ?

A) Rs. 2000 B) Rs. 2100
C) Rs. 1900 D) Rs. 2150
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 2000

Explanation:

Given,
Compound rate, R = 10% per annum
Time = 2 years
C.I = Rs. 420
Let P be the required principal.
A = (P+C.I)
Amount, A = P1 + r100n

(P+C.I) = P1 + 101002

(P+420) = P[11/10][11/10]

P-1.21P = -420

0.21P = 420

Hence, P = 420/0.21 = Rs. 2000
