Q:

At the university entrance exam, a candidate is admitted according to whether he has passed or failed the test. Of the candidates who are really capable, 80 % pass the test and of the incapable, 30 % pass the test. Given that 40 % of the candidates are really capable, then the proportion of the really capable students who can pass the test to the total students who can pass is about ?

A) 11/24 B) 1/5
C) 16/25 D) 6/5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 16/25

Explanation:

If there are total 100 candidates,
40 candidates are really capable and
60 candidates are incapable.
Of the candidates who are really capable = 80%
40*(80/100)=32 pass the test and
of the incapable= 30%
60*(30/100)=18 pass the test.
Total candidates who passed the test = 32+18 = 50
The proportion of the really capable students who can pass the test to the total students who can pass = 32/50 = 16/25.

Two trains 85 m and 75 m long are running in same direction with speeds of 62 km/hr and 44 km/hr respectively. In what time will the first train cross the second train ?

A) 22 sec B) 32 sec
C) 42 sec D) 52 sec
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 32 sec

Explanation:

Given that,

1st train speed = 62 km/hr 

2nd train speed  = 44 km/hr

Hence the relative speed of two trains is : 62-44 = 18 km/hr = 18×518 m/s = 5 m/s.

There fore, the first train crosses the second train i.e (85+75)mts of distance with a speed of 5m/s in, 

 

timedistancespeed = 85+755 = 32 sec.
