A) 85 km/hr B) 95 km/hr
C) 105 km/hr D) 120 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 120 km/hr

Explanation:

Initial speed = 80km/hr

Q:

In a college, number of boys is 75% of number of girls. Difference between boys and girls is 35. On a particular day 20% boys were absent, then find the number of boys those who present?

A) 72 B) 84
C) 93 D) 81
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 84

Explanation:

Ratio of girls and boys = 100% : 75% = 4:3

Difference is 1 unit = 35

So, 3 units = 35 x 3 = 105

If 20% absent, that’s mean 80% present.

So, present boys = 80% of 105 = 80×105100 = 84

Q:

In an election between two candidates K and L, the number of valid votes received by K exceeds those received by L by 15% of the total number of votes polled. If 20% of the votes polled were invalid and a total of 8720 votes were polled, then how many valid votes did L get ?

A) 3241 B) 2457
C) 2642 D) 2834
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2834

Explanation:

Let the total number of votes polled in the election be 100k.
Number of valid votes = 100k - 20% (100k) = 80k
Let the number of votes polled in favour of K and L be a and b respectively.
a - b = 15% (100k) => a = b + 15k
=> a + b = b + 15k + b
Now, 2b + 15k = 80k and hence b = 32.5k
It is given that 100k = 8720
32.5k = 32.5k/100k x 8720 = 2834

The number of valid votes polled in favour of L is 2834.

A) 10 days B) 14 days
C) 11 days D) 9 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10 days

Explanation:

For 30 days he receives

30 x 25 = 750
               

Actually he gets 425

Therefore, Fine is 750 - 425 =  325

 

=> No of days absent = 325/(25+7.50)= 10

Q:

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.
