Q:

A watch which gains uniformly ,is 5 min,slow at 8 o'clock in the morning on sunday and it is 5 min 48 sec.fast at 8 p.m on following sunday. when was it correct?

A) 7pm on wednesday	B) 20 min past 7pm on wednesday
C) 15min past 7pm on wednesday	D) 8pm on wednesday

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20 min past 7pm on wednesday

Explanation:

This sunday morning at 8:00 AM, the watch is 5 min. Slow, and the next sunday at 8:00PM it becomes 5 min 48 sec fast. The watch gains $5 + 5 \frac{48}{60}$ min in a time of (7×24)+12 = 180 hours.

To show the correct time, it has to gain 5 min.

$\frac{54}{5} m i n \to 180 h o u r s$

5min ->

$(\frac{5}{\frac{54}{2}} \times 180)$

$83 \frac{1}{3} h r s = 72 h r s + 11 \frac{1}{3} h r s = 3 d a y s + 11 h r s + 20 m i n$

So the correct time will be shown on wednesday at 7:20 PM

Q:

Of the following, which is greater than ½ ?

Indicate ALL such fractions.

A) 2/5	B) 4/7
C) 4/9	D) 5/11

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 4/7

Explanation:

One way to deal with fractions is to convert them all to decimals.

In this case all you would need to do is to see which is greater than 0.5.

Otherwise to see which is greater than ½, double the numerator and see if the result is greater than the denominator. In B doubling the numerator gives us 8, which is bigger than 7.
