Q:

A man covers a distance of 1200 km in 70 days resting 9 hours a day, if he rests 10 hours a day and walks with speed 1½ times of the previous in how many days will he cover 840 km ?

A) 39 days B) 37 days
C) 35 days D) 33 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 35 days

Explanation:

Distance d = 1200km
let S be the speed

he walks 15 hours a day(i.e 24 - 9)
so totally he walks for 70 x 15 = 1050hrs.

S = 1200/1050 => 120/105 = 24/21 => 8/7kmph


given 1 1/2 of previous speed
so 3/2 * 8/7= 24/14 = 12/7

New speed = 12/7kmph

Now he rests 10 hrs a day that means he walks 14 hrs a day.

time = 840 x 7 /12 => 490 hrs
=> 490/14 = 35 days

So he will take 35 days to cover 840 km.

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:

If a number 72k23l is divisible by 88. Then find value of k and l ?

A) k=8 & l=2 B) k=7 & l=2
C) k=8 & l=3 D) k=7 & l=1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) k=7 & l=2

Explanation:

If a number to be divisile by 88, it should be divisible by both "8" and "11"

Check for '8' :
For a number to be divisible by "8", the last 3-digit should be divisible by "8"
Here 72x23y --> last 3-digit is '23y'
So y=2 [ (i.e) 232 is absolutely divisible by "8"]

Chech for '11' :
For a number to be divisible by "11" , sum of odd digits - sum of even digits should be divisible by "11"
(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + y)
(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + 2)
(10 + x) - 6 should be divisible by "11"
for x = 7
=> 17 - 6 = 11 [ which is absolutely divisible by "11"]

So x = 7 , y= 2.
