Q:

P, Q and R start simultaneously from A to B. P reaches B, turns back and meet Q at a distance of 11 km from B. Q reached B, turns back and meet R at a distance of 9 km from B. If the ratio of the speeds of P and R is 3:2, what is the distance between A and B ?

A) 99 B) 100
C) 89 D) 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 99

Explanation:

Let, Distance between A and B = d

 

Distance travelled by P while it meets Q = d + 11

 

Distance travelled by Q while it meets P = d – 11

 

Distance travelled by Q while it meets R = d + 9

 

Distance travelled by R while it meets Q = d – 9

 

Here the ratio of speeds of P & Q => SP : SQ = d + 11 : d – 11

 

The ratio of speeds of Q & R => SQ : SR = d + 9 : d – 9

 

But given Ratio of speeds of P & R => P : R = 3 : 2

 SPSR = SPSQxSQSR = d+11d+9d-11d-9

 

=> d+11d+9d-11d-9 = 3/2

 

=>  d = 1, 99

 

=> d = 99 satisfies.

 

Therefore, Distance between A and B = 99

A) P@Q$T#U*W B) P@Q$T#W*U
C) P@W$Q*T#U D) P@Q$W*T#U
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) P@Q$T#U*W

Q:

P and Q were assigned to do a work for an amount of 1200. P alone can do it in 15 days while Q can do it in 12 days. With the help of R they finish the work in 6 days. Find the share of R ?

A) 120 B) 240
C) 360 D) 180
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 120

Explanation:

1/15 + 1/12 + 1/R = 1/6, we got R = 60 (it means R will take 60 days to complete the work alone)


so ratio of work done by P:Q:R = 1/15 : 1/12 : 1/60 = 5 : 4 : 1


so R share = (1/10) x 1200 = 120.

Q:

An amount of money was lent for 3 years. What will be the difference between the simple  and the compound interest earned on it at the same rate?
I. The rate of interest was 8 p.c.p.a.
II. The total amount of simple interest was Rs. 1200

A) I alone sufficient while II alone not sufficient to answer B) alone sufficient while I alone not sufficient to answer
C) Both I and II are not sufficient to answer D) Both I and II are necessary to answer
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Both I and II are necessary to answer

Explanation:

Given: T = 3 years.
I. gives: R = 8% p.a.
II. gives: S.I. = Rs. 1200.
Thus, P = Rs. 5000, R = 8% p.a. and T = 3 years.
Difference between C.I. and S.I. may be obtained.
So, the correct answer is (D).

Q:

A jar was full with honey. A person used to draw out 20% of the honey from the jar and replaced it with sugar solution. He has repeated the same process 4 times and thus there was only 512 gm of honey left in the jar, the rest part of the jar was filled with the sugar solution. The initial amount of honey in the jar was:

A) 1.25 kg B) 1 kg
C) 1.5 kg D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1.25 kg

Explanation:

Let the initial amount of honey in the jar was k, then

 

 512 = k1 - 154 or  512 = k454 

 => k = 512 × 625256 

=> k = 1250

 

 Hence initially the honey in the jar = 1.25 kg
