A can do a piece of work in 30 days. He works at it for 6 days and then B finishes it in 18 days. In what time can A and B together it ?

A) 14 1/2 days B) 11 days
C) 13 1/4 days D) 12 6/7 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 12 6/7 days

Explanation:

Let 'B' alone can do the work in 'x' days

6/30 + 18/x = 1

=> x = 22.5

 

1/30 + 1/22.5 = 7/90 

=> 90/7 = 12 6/7 days

Q:

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

Explanation:

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

Q:

Vinod have 20 rupees. He bought 1, 2, 5 rupee stamps. They are different in numbers by the reason of no change, the shop keeper gives 3 one rupee stamps. So how many stamps Vinod have ?

A) 10 B) 18
C) 12 D) 15
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10

Explanation:

Given total rupees = 20 Rs
No. of one rupee stamps = 3
Now, remaining money = Rs. 17
With that he buys only 2 and 5 rupee stamps
Let number of Rs. 5 stamps = K
Let number of Rs. 2 stamps = L
5K + 2L = 17
K = 3, L = 1 (possible)
L = 6, K = 1 (possible)
=> But given that they are different in number so, K is not equal to 3
one rupee stamps = 3
2 two stamps = 6
5 rupee stamps = 1
Total number of stamps = 10.

Q:

In a fort, there are 1200 soldiers. If each soldier consumes 3 kg per day, the provisions available in the fort will last for 30 days. If some more soldiers join, the provisions available will last for 25 days given each soldier consumes 2.5 kg per day. Find the number of soldiers joining the fort in that case ?

A) 693 B) 741
C) 528 D) 654
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 528

Explanation:

Assume x soldiers join the fort. 1200 soldiers have provision for 1200 (days for which provisions last them)(rate of consumption of each soldier)
= (1200)(30)(3) kg.

Also provisions available for (1200 + x) soldiers is (1200 + x)(25)(2.5) k

As the same provisions are available
=> (1200)(30)(3) = (1200 + x)(25)(2.5)

x = ([(1200)(30)(3)] / (25)(2.5)) - 1200 => x = 528.
