Q:

The difference between the squares of two consecutive odd integers is always divisible by ?

A) 8	B) 2
C) 6	D) 4

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8

Let the two consecutive odd integers be (2x + 1) and (2x + 3)

Then,

(2x + 3)² - (2x + 1)²

= (2x + 3 + 2x + 1) (2x + 3 - 2x - 1)

= (4x + 4)(2)
= 8 (x + 1), which is always divisible by 8

Q:

The interest on a certain deposit at 4.5% p.a. is Rs. 202.50 in one year. How much will the additional interest in one year be on the same deposit at 5% p.a. ?

A) Rs. 22.5	B) Rs. 2.5
C) Rs. 202	D) Rs. 25

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 22.5

Explanation:

We know that I = PTR/100
=> P = 20250/4.5 = 4500
Now, new Interest at 5% = 4500x1x5/100 = 225
Now the additional amount = 225 - 202.5 = Rs. 22.5

Q:

A booster pump can be used for filling as well as for emptying a tank. The capacity of the tank is 2400 $m^{3}$ . The emptying capacity of the tank is 10 $m^{3}$ per minute higher than its filling capacity and the pump needs 8 minutes lesser to empty the tank than it needs to fill it. What is the filling capacity of the pump?

A) 50 m^3/min	B) 60 m^3/min
C) 72 m^3/min	D) None of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 50 m^3/min

Explanation:

Let the filling capacity of the pump be x $m^{3}$ /min.

Then, emptying capacity of the pump=(x+10) $m^{3}$ /min.

so, $\frac{2400}{x} - \frac{2400}{x + 10} = 8 \Leftrightarrow x^{2} + 10 x - 3000 = 0$

$\Rightarrow (x - 50) + (x + 60) = 0 \Leftrightarrow x = 50$
