Q:

Two boys and a girl can do a work in 5 days, while a boy and 2 girls can do it in 6 days. If the boy is paid at the rate of 28$ a week, what should be the wages of the girl a week ?

A) 24 $ B) 22 $
C) 16 $ D) 14 $
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 16 $

Explanation:

Let the 1 day work of a boy=b and a girl=g, then
2b + g = 1/5 ---(i) and
b + 2g = 1/6 ---(ii)
On solving (i) & (ii), b=7/90, g=2/45
As payment of work will be in proportion to capacity of work and a boy is paid $ 28/week,
so a girl will be paid 28×245790 = 16 $.

Q:

Two trains running in opposite directions cross a man standing on the platform in 27 seconds and 17 seconds respectively and they cross each other in 23 seconds. The ratio of their speeds is  ?

A) 1 : 2 B) 3 : 1
C) 4 : 7 D) 3 : 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 3 : 2

Explanation:

Let the speeds of the two trains be x m/sec and y m/sec respectively.

Then, length of the first train = 27 x meters, and

length of the second train = 17 y meters.

(27 x + 17 y) / (x + y) = 23

=> 27 x + 17 y = 23 x + 23 y

=> 4 x = 6 y

=> x/y = 3/2.

Q:

The age of Sohail, Afzal and Bilal are 17,16 and 12 respectively. If the age of Aslam also included the average of the ages is increased by 5. What is the age of Aslam?

A) 32 B) 33
C) 34 D) 35
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 35

Explanation:

Given S = 17 yrs

A = 16 yrs

B = 12 yrs

Average = 17 + 16 + 12/3 = 15 yrs

Given if Aslam added to them, their average increases by 5

=> Average of 4 members = 20

Let the age of Aslam be 'x'

Then, 

17 + 16 + 12 + x /4 = 20

=> x = 80 - 45

=> x = 35. 

 

Hence, the age of Aslam is 35 yrs.

One-quarter of one-seventh of a land is sold for Rs. 30,000. What is the value of an four fifteenth of land ?

A) Rs.1,92,000 B) Rs.2,24,000
C) Rs.1,26,000 D) Rs.3,42,000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.2,24,000

One-quarter of one-seventh = 1/4 x 1/7
= 1/28
Now, 1/28 of a land costs = Rs. 30,000
Thus, 8/35 of the land will cost = 30,000 x 28 x 4/15
= Rs. 2,24,000.
