Q:

In a parking lot there are two types of vehicles, two wheelers and four wheelers. The total number of the vehicles in the parking lot is 200. When the number of the wheels of all the vehicles is counted it is counted to be 580. Find the total number of the four wheeler vehicles in the parking lot ?

A) 110 B) 90
C) 100 D) 180
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 90

Explanation:

Let number of 2 wheelers be 'x'
and 4 wheelers be 'y'

Given total number of vehicles = 200
i.e, x + y = 200 ....(1)

Given total number of wheels = 580
i.e, 2x + 4y = 580 ...(2)

By solving (1)&(2), we get

y = 90
=> x = 110

Therefore, number of two wheelers = 110
number of four wheelers = 90

At what time between 2 and 3 O'clock, the hands of a clock coincide ?

A) 1 10/11 minutes past 2 B) 1 10/11 minutes past 3
C) 1 11/10 minutes past 3 D) 11 10/11 minutes past 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1 10/11 minutes past 2

Since, in one hour, two hands of a clock coincide only once, so, there will be value.
Required time T = 211H×30 + Ao minutes past H.
Here H - initial position of hour hand = 2 (since 2 O'clock)
A° = Required angle = 0° (Since it coincides)

 

T = 2112×30 + 0o minutes past 2 

 

=> 11011 minutes past 2
