Bank Clerk Questions

Given that 

6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days 

26 men and 48 boys can do the same in 2 days

As the work done is equal,

10(6M + 8B) = 2(26M + 48B)

60M + 80B = 52M + 96B

=> M = 2B

=> B = M/2 ……(1)

Now Put (1) in 15M + 20B

=> 15M + 10M = 25M

Now, 6M + 8B in 10 days

=> (6M + 4M) 10 = 100M

Then D(25M) = 100M

=> D = 4 days.

The given series 404, 415, 402, 413, 400, ? follows a pattern that,

404

404 + 11 = 415

415 - 13 = 402

402 + 11 = 413

413 - 13 = 400

400 + 11 = 411

Hence the next number in the given number series is 411.

Speed in still water = 6 kmph

Stream speed = 1.2 kmph

Down stream  = 7.2 kmph

Up Stream = 4.8 kmph

x/7.2 + x/4.8 = 1

x = 2.88

Total Distance  = 2.88 x 2 = 5.76 kms

I am Prince of a Kingdom. I will be king only if the man who gave me birth i.e, king my father dies.

Let the numbers be 3x, 3x + 3 and 3x + 6.
Then,
3x + (3x + 3) + (3x + 6) = 72
9x = 63
x = 7
Largest number = 3x + 6 = 27.

=> Second largest number = 27 - 3 = 24

Let the total distance to be covered is 84 kms.
Time taken to cover the distance without stoppage = 84/42 hrs = 2 hrs
Time taken to cover the distance with stoppage = 84/28 = 3 hrs.
Thus, he takes 60 minutes to cover the same distance with stoppage.
Therefore, in 1 hour he stops for 20 minutes.

We cannot find out the answer because the number of days of the current month is not given.
