Q:

125 over 1000 in Simplest Form?

A) 2/9	B) 1/8
C) 3/8	D) 4/7

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1/8

Explanation:

125 over 1000 in Simplest Form means $\frac{125}{1000}$ in its simple fraction form.

Now, to get the simplest form of 125/1000, find the HCF or GCD of both numerator and denominator i.e, 125 and 1000.

HCF of 125, 1000 = 125

Then, divide both numerator and denominator by 125

i.e, $\frac{\frac{125}{125}}{\frac{1000}{125}} = \frac{1}{8}$

Hence, $\frac{1}{8}$ is the simplest form of 125 over 1000.

Q:

The reflex angle between the hands of a clock at 10.25 is

A) 197 1/2	B) 167 1/2
C) 157 1/2	D) 187 1/2

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 197 1/2

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in 125/12 hrs = (360/12 * 125/12) = $312 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$

Angle traced by minute hand in 25 min = (360/60 * 25) = $150^{0}$

$\therefore$ Reflex angle = $360^{0} - {(312 \frac{1}{2} - 150)}^{0} = 360^{0} - 162 \frac{1^{0}}{2} = 197 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$

A) 53800	B) 43800
C) 83800	D) 73800

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 73800

Explanation:

perimeter = total cost / cost per m = 10080 /20 = 504m
side of the square = 504/4 = 126m
breadth of the pavement = 3m
side of inner square = 126 - 6 = 120m
area of the pavement = (126 x126) - (120 x 120) = 246 x 6 sq m
