Q:

How many iron rods, each of length 7 mts and diameter 2 cms can be made out of 0.88 cubic metre of iron ?

A) 500 B) 600
C) 400 D) 300
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 400

Explanation:

Given length of iron rod =7 mts and  and diameter of rod = 2 cms 

=> r = 1/100 mts

Therefore,  Volume of one rod = πr2h cu. m =  227×11002×7cu. m = 115000 cu. m

Given volume of iron = 0.88 cu. m 

Therefore, Number of rods = 0.88×500011 = 400.

Q:

A can build a wall in 16 days while B can destroy it in 8 days. A worked for 5 days. Then B joined with A for the next 2 days. Find in how many days could A build the remaining wall ?

A) 12 days B) 14 days
C) 13 days D) 16 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 13 days

Explanation:

Now, Total work = LCM(16, 8) = 48

A's one day work = + 48/16 = + 3

B's one day work = - 48/8 = -6

Given A worked for 5 days to build the wall => 5 days work = 5 x 3 = + 15

2days B joined with A in working = 2(3 - 6) = - 6

Remaining Work of building wall = 48 - (15 - 6) = 39

Now this remaining work will be done by A in = 39/3 = 13 days.
