Q:

Rs. 69 were divided among 115 family members so that each lady gets 50 paise less than each gentleman, and each gentleman received twice the paise as each lady received. Find the number of  gentlemen in the family?

A) 23 B) 92
C) 48 D) 52
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 23

Explanation:

Total number of female members = 115

Let the number of males = x

Number of females = y

=> x + y = 115  ......(1)

According to the given data,

x + y(0.50) = 69 ......(2)

From (1) & (2), we get

0.5y = 46

=> y = 46 x 2 = 92

=> x = 115 - 92 = 23

 

Hence, required number of gentlemen in the family = x = 23.

1.12.91 is the first Tuesday. Which is the fourth Thursday of December 91  ?

A) 22.12.91 B) 25.12.91
C) 24.12.91 D) 23.12.91
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 25.12.91

Explanation:

Given that 2.12.91 is the first Tuesday
Hence we can assume that 4.12.91 is the first Thursday

If we add 7 days to 4.12.91, we will get second Thursday
If we add 14 days to 4.12.91, we will get third Thursday
If we add 21 days to 4.12.91, we will get fourth Thursday

=> fourth Thursday = (4.12.91 + 21 days) = 25.12.91.

Q:

Sripad has scored average of 65 marks in three objects. In no subjects has he secured less than 58 marks. He has secured more marks in Maths than other two subjects. What could be his maximum score in Maths ?

A) 79 B) 77
C) 76 D) 73
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 79

Explanation:

Assuming Sripad has scored the least marks in subject other than science,
Then the marks he could secure in other two are 58 each.
Since the average mark of all the 3 subject is 65.
i.e (58+58+x)/3 = 65
116 + x = 195
x = 79 marks.

Therefore, the maximum marks he can score in maths is 79.
