Q:

A can build a wall in 16 days while B can destroy it in 8 days. A worked for 5 days. Then B joined with A for the next 2 days. Find in how many days could A build the remaining wall ?

A) 12 days B) 14 days
C) 13 days D) 16 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 13 days

Explanation:

Now, Total work = LCM(16, 8) = 48

A's one day work = + 48/16 = + 3

B's one day work = - 48/8 = -6

Given A worked for 5 days to build the wall => 5 days work = 5 x 3 = + 15

2days B joined with A in working = 2(3 - 6) = - 6

Remaining Work of building wall = 48 - (15 - 6) = 39

Now this remaining work will be done by A in = 39/3 = 13 days.

Q:

There are 6561 balls are there out of them 1 is heavy. Find the minimum number of times the balls have to be weighted for finding out the heavy ball ?

A) 2414 B) 204
C) 87 D) 8
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 8

Explanation:

Suppose there are 9 balls

 

Let us give name to each ball B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9

 

Now we will divide all the balls into 3 groups.

 

Group1 - B1 B2 B3

 

Group2 - B4 B5 B6

 

Group3 - B7 B8 B9

 

Step1 - Now weigh any two groups. Let's assume we choose Group1 on left side of the scale and Group2 on the right side.

 

So now when we weigh these two groups we can get 3 outcomes.

 

Weighing scale tilts on left - Group1 has a heavy ball.
Weighing scale tilts on right - Group2 has a heavy ball.
Weighing scale remains balanced - Group3 has a heavy ball.
Lets assume we got the outcome as 3. i.e Group 3 has a heavy ball.

 

Step2 - Now weigh any two balls from Group3. Lets assume we keep B7 on left side of the scale and B8 on right side.

 

So now when we weigh these two balls we can get 3 outcomes.

 

Weighing scale tilts on left - B7 is the heavy ball.
Weighing scale tilts on right - B8 is the heavy ball.
Weighing scale remains balanced - B9 is the heavy ball.
The conclusion we get from this Problem is that each time weigh. We element 2/3 of the balls.

 

As we came to conclusion that Group3 has the heavy ball from Step1, we remove 6 balls from the equation i.e (2/3) of 9.

 

Simillarly we do the ame thing for the Step2.

 

Now going with this conclusion. We have 6561 balls.

 

Step - 1

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 2187Balls

 

Group2 - 2187Balls

 

Group3 - 2187Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 2

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 729Balls

 

Group2 - 729Balls

 

Group3 - 729Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 3

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 243Balls

 

Group2 - 243Balls

 

Group3 - 243Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 4

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 81Balls

 

Group2 - 81Balls

 

Group3 - 81Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 5

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 27Balls

 

Group2 - 27Balls

 

Group3 - 27Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 6

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 9Balls

 

Group2 - 9Balls

 

Group3 - 9Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 7

 

Divided into 3 groups

 

Group1 - 3Balls

 

Group2 - 3Balls

 

Group3 - 3Balls

 

Taking the similar steps as we did in the above example, we come to the conclusion that Group1 has the heavy ball.

 

Step - 8

 

So now when we weigh 2 balls out of 3 we can get 3 outcomes.

 

Weighing scale tilts on left - left side placed is the heavy ball.
Weighing scale tilts on right - right side placed is the heavy ball.
Weighing scale remains balanced - remaining ball is the heavy ball.
So the general answer to this question is, it is always multiple of 3 steps.

 

For 9 balls  32= 9. therefore 2 steps

 

For 6561 balls 38 = 6561 therefore 8 steps

Q:

How many Indian states share border with Myanmar  ?

A) 6 B) 7
C) 3 D) 4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 4

Explanation:

The four northeast Indian states share 1,643-km border with Myanmar – Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Mizoram and Manipur. It is in news recently, because the Indian Government has set up an expert committee to examine the rules which allow free movement of Indian and Myanmarese citizens within 16 kms of the border, but are exploited by militants for smuggling arms, drugs, and fake Indian currency. The committee will be headed by the special secretary (Internal Security) in the Ministry of Home Affairs. The committee will give its report for uniform and effective implementation of free movement regime within 3 months. It will also prepare standard operating procedures common for all the four states so that militants, criminals and contraband are filtered at the border without causing inconvenience to genuine people.

5. In how many of the given years were the exports more than the imports ?

A. 1                       B. 2                       C. 3                       D. 4

Answer

1. ANSWER : D 


Explanation - The ratio of imports to exports for the years 1998 and 1999 are 1.25 and 1.40 respectively. 


Let the exports in the year 1999 = Rs. x crores.  


Then, the exports in the year 1998 = Rs. (500 - x) crores. 


 250500-x = 1.25 => x = 300 crores      [ Using ratio for 1998 ]  


Thus, the exports in the year 1999 = Rs. 300 crores. 


 


Let the imports in the year 1999 = Rs. y crores.  


Then, Imports in the year 1999 = y300=1.4 => y = 420= Rs. 420 crores.


 


2. ANSWER : C


Explanation - The imports are minimum proportionate to the exports implies that the ratio of the value of imports to exports has the minimum value.


Now, this ratio has a minimum value 0.35 in 1997, i.e., the imports are minimum proportionate to the exports in 1997. 


 


3. ANSWER : D 


Explanation - The graph gives only the ratio of imports to exports for different years. To find the percentage increase in imports from 1997 to 1998, we require more details such as the value of imports or exports during these years. 


Hence, the data is inadequate to answer this question. 


 


4. ANSWER : B 


Explanation -  Ratio of imports to exports in the year 1996 = 0.85. 


Let the exports in 1996 = Rs. x crores. 


Then , 272x = 0.85 => x = 320  


Exports in 1996 = Rs. 320 crores.  


 


5. ANSWER : D  


Explanation - The exports are more than the imports imply that the ratio of value of imports to exports is less than 1.Now, this ratio is less than 1 in years 1995, 1996, 1997 and 2000. 


Thus, there are four such years.
