Bank Clerk Questions

Both flies and bees can sit on the uncovered food and contaminate the food.

1. Answer (c)

Each time we order 1, one apple is added to the basket but each time when 4 is ordered, one apple is removed from it.

Required number of apples = number of 1's - number of 4's = 6 - 4 = 2

2. Answer (d)

Each time we order 1, 2 or 3, one fruit is added to the basket but when ever we order 4, two fruits are removed from it.

Required number = Number of 1's + Number of 2's + Number of 3's - 2 x (Number of 4's)

= 6 + 6 + 7 - (2x4)
= 19 - 8
= 11.

Let the number be 'x'.

x+x22 = 11x
x2= 22x
=> x = 22.

Walking at 3/4th of usual rate implies that time taken would be 4/3th of the usual time. In other words, the time taken is 1/3rd more than his usual time

so 1/3rd of the usual time = 15min
or usual time = 3 x 15 = 45min = 45/60 hrs = 3/4 hrs.

Given X can do in 10 days 

=> 1 day work of X = 1/10

Y can do in 15 days 

=> 1 day work of Y = 1/15

1day work of (X + Y) = 1/10 + 1/15 = 1/6

Given they are hired for 5 days

 => 5 days work of (X + Y) = 5 x 1/6 = 5/6

 Therefore, Unfinished work = 1 - 5/6 = 1/6 

work done=total number of person x number of days;
half of work done = 140 x 66;
For half of remaining work 25 extra men are added.
Therefore, total men for half work remaining = 140 + 25 = 165;
Let 2nd half work will be completed in K days;
140 x 66 = 165 x K
K = 122;
Hence, extra days => 122-120 = 2days.

The distance to be covered = Sum of their lengths = 200 + 300 = 500 m.

Relative speed = 72 -36 = 36 kmph = 36 x 5/18 = 10 mps.

Time required = d/s = 500/10 = 50 sec.
