Q:

A box contains 3 blue marbles, 4 red, 6 green marbles and 2 yellow marbles. If two marbles are picked at random, what is the probability that they are either blue or yellow ?

A) 3/17 B) 4/21
C) 2/21 D) 5/17
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2/21

Explanation:

Given that there are three blue marbles, four red marbles, six green marbles and two yellow marbles.

 

Probability that both marbles are blue = ³C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 1/35

Probability that both are yellow = ²C₂/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 1)/(15 x 14) = 1/105

Probability that one blue and other is yellow = (³C₁ x ²C₁)/¹⁵C₂ = (2 x 3 x 2)/(15 x 14) = 2/35

 

Required probability = 1/35 + 1/105 + 2/35 = 3/35 + 1/105 = 1/35(3 + 1/3) = 10/(3 x 35) = 2/21

Q:

How many seconds in 10 years?

A) 31523500 sec B) 315360000 sec
C) 315423000 sec D) 315354000 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 315360000 sec

Explanation:

We know that,

1 year = 365 days

1 day = 24 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds.

 

Then, 1 year = 365 x 24 x 60 x 60 seconds.

= 8760 x 3600

1 year = 31536000 seconds.

 

Hence, 10 years = 31536000 x 10 = 315360000 seconds.

Q:

If 5th March, 2005 is Monday, what was the day of the week on 5th March, 2004 ?

A) Sunday B) Monday
C) Tuesday D) Wednesday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Sunday

Explanation:

The year 2004 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days.

But, Feb 2004 not included because we are calculating from March 2004 to March 2005. So it has 1 odd day only.

The day on 5th March, 2005 will be 1 day beyond the day on 5th March, 2004.

Given that, 5th March, 2005 is Monday.

5th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 5th March, 2005).

Q:

When Ram was born, his father was 32 years older than his brother and his mother was 25 years older than his sister. If Ram's brother is 6 years older than Ram and his mother is 3 years younger than his father, how old was Ram's sister when Ram was born ?

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

Explanation:

Ram age when he was born = 0 years
=> His brother's age = 6 year
=> His father's age = brother age + 32years = 6+32 = 38
=> His mother's age = father's age - 3 = 35
So sister's age = 35-25 = 10years.
