Q:

The difference between two numbers is 3355. When the larger number is divided by the smaller one, the quotient is 6 and the remainder is 15. The smaller number and larger number respectively ?

A) 546, 3901 B) 415, 3770
C) 668, 4023 D) 404, 3759
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 668, 4023

Explanation:

Let the smaller number be k.
Then, larger number = (3355 + k)
Therefore 3355 + k = (6k + 15)
‹=› 5k = 3340
‹=› k = 668.

Therefore, the smaller number k = 668 and now the larger number = 3355+668 = 4023.

Q:

K, L and M can do a piece of work in 20, 30 and 60 days respectively. In how many days can K do the total work if he is assisted by L and M on every third day ?

A) 15 days B) 13 days
C) 12 days D) 10 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 15 days

Explanation:

In one day work done by K = 1/20

Work done by K in 2 days = 1/10

 

Work done by K,L,M on 3rd day =1/20 + 1/30 + 1/60 = 1/10

Therefore, workdone in 3 days is = 1/10 + 1/10 = 1/5

 

1/5th of the work will be completed at the end of 3 days.

The remaining work = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5

1/5 of work is completed in 3 days

Total work wiil be done in 3 x 5 = 15 days.

Q:

Avanthi’s age is 1/6th of her father’s age. Her father’s age will be twice of Kapil’s age after 10 years. If Kapil’s eighth birthday was celebrated two years ago, then what is Avanthi’s present age ?

A) 6 years B) 4 years
C) 7 years D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) None

Explanation:

As given Kapil's 8th birthday was celebrated 2 years ago,

Kapil’s present age = 8 + 2 = 10 years.

Father's age is twice of Kapil’s age after 10 years.
=> F + 10 = 2 (K + 10) = 2 (10+ 10)
F = 30years,

Avanthi's age =1/6(F) = 30/6 = 5 years.

Q:

Find the sum to 200 terms of the series 2 + 5 + 7 + 6 + 12 + 7 + ....

A) 30,400 B) 30,200
C) 34,600 D) 38,400
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 30,400

Explanation:

we can treat every two consecutive terms as one.
So, we will have a total of 100 terms of the nature:
(2 + 5) + (7 + 6) + (12 + 7).... => 7, 13, 19,....

 

We know the sum of n terms  nn+12

 

Now, a= 7, d=6 and n=100
Hence the sum of the given series is
S= 100/2 x[2 x 7 + 99 x 6]
=> 50[608]
=> 30,400.
