Q:

If the sum of two numbers is 55 and the H.C.F. and L.C.M. of these numbers are 5 and 120 respectively, then the sum of the reciprocals of the numbers is equal to ?

A) 13/125 B) 14/57
C) 11/120 D) 16/41
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 11/120

Explanation:

Let the numbers be a and b.
We know that product of two numbers = Product of their HCF and LCM
Then, a + b = 55 and ab = 5 x 120 = 600.
=> The required sum = (1/a) + (1/b) = (a+b)/ab
=55/600 = 11/120

Q:

For x∈N, x>1,  and  p=logxx+1, q=logx+1x+2 then which one of the following is correct?

A) p < q B) p = q
C) p > q D) can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) p > q

Explanation:

kl>k+1l+1 for (k,l) > 0 and  k > l 

 

 

 

Let     k = x+1    and   l = x

 

 

 

Therefore, x+1x>(x+1)+1(x)+1

 

 

 

 (x + 1) > x

 

 

 

Therefore, log(x+1)log(x)>log(x+2)log(x+1)

 

 

 

⇒logxx+1 >logx+1x+2

Q:

The difference between the time taken by two trains to travel a distance of 350 km is 2 hours 20 minutes. If the difference between their speeds is 5 km/hr, what is the speed of faster train ?

A) 36 kmph B) 30 kmph
C) 34 kmph D) 40 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 30 kmph

Explanation:

Let the speed of the faster train be 'S' kmph

 

Then speed of the slower train will be '(S-5)' kmph

 

Time taken by faster train = 350/S hrs

 

Time taken by slower train = 350/(S-5) hrs

 350s-5 - 350s = 2 hrs 20 min = 213 = 73

 

=> S = 30 km/hr.
