Q:

A contractor undertakes to complete a work in 130 days. He employs 150 men for 25 days and they complete 1/4 of the work . He then reduces the number of men to 100, who work for 60 days, after which there are 10 days holidays.How many men must be employed for the remaining period to finish the work?

Answer

150 men in 25 days do = $\frac{1}{4}$ work

Let 1 man in 1 day does = x work

Total work done by 150 men in 25 days = 150x * 25 = $\frac{1}{4}$ work => x = $\frac{1}{15000}$

Therefore, 100 men in 60 days do = 100 * 60x = 6000x work = 6/15 = 2/5

Total work done = $\frac{1}{4} + \frac{2}{5} = \frac{13}{20}$

Therefore, Remaining work = 1 - $\frac{13}{20}$ = $\frac{7}{20}$

Remaining time = 130 - (25+60+10) = 35 days

Therefore, work is done in 25 days by 150 men.

Therefore, Work is done in 35 days by 150 men.

Hence, he should employ 50 more men.

Q:

Sound following a flash of lightning is called

A) Stoning	B) Bolting
C) Thunder	D) Cloud clash

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Thunder

Explanation:

The Sound Following the flash of lighting is because of Thunder.

Lightning is seen earlier than thunder because light travels much faster than sound.

The roar of thunder is the result of a shock wave produced when lightning super-heats the air through which it passes, causing that air to expand very rapidly. This rapid expansion of air creates a shock wave that travels outward at close to the speed of sound.

Q:

If x and y are the two digits of the number 653xy such that this number is divisible by 80, then x+y is equal to ?

A) 5	B) 4
C) 3	D) 2

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2

Explanation:

Since 653xy is divisible by 5 as well as 2, so y = 0.
Now, 653x0 must be divisible by 8.
So, 3x0 must be divisible by 8. This happens when x = 2
x + y = (2 + 0) = 2.
