Q:

If 34 men completed 2/5th of a work in 8 days working 9 hours a day. How many more man should be engaged to finish the rest of the work in 6 days working 9 hours a day ? 

A) 101 men B) 112 men
C) 102 men D) 120 men
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 102 men

Explanation:

From the above formula i.e (m1 x t1/w1) = (m2 x t2/w2)

so, [(34 x 8 x 9)/(2/5)] = [(M x 6 x 9)/(3/5)]

so, M = 136 men

 

Number of men to be added to finish the work = 136-34 = 102 men.

Q:

A shopkeeper sold a mobile phone for Rs. 12000. Had he offered discount of 10% on the selling price, there would be a loss of 4%. What is the cost price of that Mobile phone?

A) Rs. 12,500 B) Rs. 11,250
C) Rs. 12,750 D) Rs. 11,680
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs. 11,250

Explanation:

Given that SP = Rs. 12000 - 10%  = Rs. 10,800

Loss% = 4

We know that, C.P = 100/(100 - Loss%) x 100

=> 100/100-4 x 10800

=> 1080000/96

C.P = Rs. 11,250

Q:

P, Q, and R can do a job in 12 days together.  If their efficiency of working be in the ratio 3 : 8 : 5, Find in what time Q can complete the same work alone?

A) 36 days B) 30 days
C) 24 days D) 22 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 36 days

Explanation:

Given the ratio of efficiencies of P, Q & R are 3 : 8 : 5

Let the efficiencies of P, Q & R be 3x, 8x and 5x respectively

They can do work for 12 days.

=> Total work = 12 x 16x = 192x

 

Now, the required time taken by Q to complete the job alone = 162x8x = 24 days.

Q:

If a number 72k23l is divisible by 88. Then find value of k and l ?

A) k=8 & l=2 B) k=7 & l=2
C) k=8 & l=3 D) k=7 & l=1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) k=7 & l=2

Explanation:

If a number to be divisile by 88, it should be divisible by both "8" and "11"

Check for '8' :
For a number to be divisible by "8", the last 3-digit should be divisible by "8"
Here 72x23y --> last 3-digit is '23y'
So y=2 [ (i.e) 232 is absolutely divisible by "8"]

Chech for '11' :
For a number to be divisible by "11" , sum of odd digits - sum of even digits should be divisible by "11"
(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + y)
(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + 2)
(10 + x) - 6 should be divisible by "11"
for x = 7
=> 17 - 6 = 11 [ which is absolutely divisible by "11"]

So x = 7 , y= 2.

Q:

Two trains are moving in the same direction at 72 kmph and 36 kmph. The faster train crosses a girl sitting at window seat in the slower train in 32 seconds. Find the length of the faster train ?

A) 170 m B) 100 m
C) 270 m D) 320 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 320 m

Explanation:

Relative speed = (72 - 36) x 5/18 = 2 x 5 = 10 mps.
Distance covered in 32 sec = 32 x 10 = 320 m.

The length of the faster train = 320 m.
