The simplest triangles are AKI, AIL, EKD, LFB, DJC, DKJ, KIJ, ILJ, JLB, BJC, DHC and BCG i.e. 12 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are AKJ, ALJ, AKL, ADJ, AJB and DBC i.e. 6 in number.
The triangles composed of the three components each are ADC and ABC i.e. 2 in number.
There is only one triangle i.e. ADB composed of four components.
Thus, there are 12 + 6 + 2 + 1 = 21 triangles in the figure.

Q:

A shopkeeper sells one-third of his goods at a profit of 10%, another one-third at a profit of 20%, and the rest at a loss of 6%.What is his overall profit percentage ?

A) 6% B) 8%
C) 10% D) 12%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8%

Explanation:

Let the shopkeeper buy 300g for Rs.300. Now he sells 100g for Rs.110, another 100g for Rs120, and the rest 100g for Rs94. 

 

Therefore, the total amount he receives = Rs.110 + Rs.120 + Rs.94 = 324. 

 

Therefore, the shopkeeper spends Rs.300 and gets back Rs.324.

 

Therefore, his profit percentage = 24300x100 % = 8%

A) 8 kmph B) 6 kmph
C) 7.5 kmph D) 5.5 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6 kmph

Explanation:

Speed of the stream = 1
Motor boat speed in still water be = x kmph
Down Stream = x + 1 kmph
Up Stream = x - 1 kmph
[35/(x + 1)] + [35/(x - 1)] = 12
x = 6 kmph

Here the molecule C2 has all paired electrons in its electronic configuration. So C2 is Diamagnetic.

 

Whereas, B2 molecule has unpaired electrons. So B2 is Paramegnetic.

Q:

The wages of labourers in a factory increases in the ratio 22:25 and there was a reduction in the number of labourers in the ratio 15:11. Find the original wage bill if the present bill is Rs. 5000 ?

A) Rs. 5500 B) Rs. 6000
C) Rs. 6200 D) Rs. 6350
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 6000

Explanation:

The wages of labourers in a factory increases in the ratio 22:25 and there was a reduction in the number of labourers in the ratio 15:11. Find the original wage bill if the present bill is Rs 5000 ?
Ratio of increase of wages = 22:25
Ratio of decrease of labourers = 15:11
Compound ratio of wages of labourers = 22 x 15 : 25 x 11 = 330:275
Final bill = Rs. 5000
For 275 ratio wages = Rs. 5000
For 1 ratio wages = 5000/275
For 330 ratio wages = 5000/275 x 330 = Rs. 6000

Q:

In a mixture of milk and water the proportion of water by weight was 75%. If in 60 gm of mixture 15 gm water was added, what would be the percentage of water ? (Weight in gm)

A) 80% B) 70%
C) 75% D) 62%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 80%

Explanation:

Water in 60 gm mixture=60 x 75/100 = 45 gm. and Milk = 15 gm.

 

After adding 15 gm. of water in mixture, total water = 45 + 15 = 60 gm and weight of a mixture = 60 + 15 = 75 gm.

 

So % of water = 100 x 60/75 = 80%.
