Q:

Mary is 12 years younger to Pinky. After 3 years, the ratio of their ages will be 5:8. If the present age of Sam is the sum of ages of Mary and Pinky, then what was the age of Sam 15 years back ?

A) 31 years B) 37 years
C) 46 years D) 29 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 31 years

Explanation:

Let the present age of Pinky be x years

 

Then the age of Mary is x - 12 years

 

After 3 years,

 

Ratio of  MaryPinky = x - 9x + 3 = 58

 

8x - 72 = 5x +15

 

=> 3x = 87

 

=> x = 29

 

=> Age of Pinky = 29 years

 

=> Age of Mary = 29 - 12 = 17 years

 

Present age of Sam = 29 + 17 = 46

 

Before 15 years Sam age = 46 - 15 = 31 years.

A)  11/91

B)  4/11

C)  1/11

D) 90/91

A) Option A B) Option B
C) Option C D) Option D
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Option D

Explanation:

Let S be the sample space. Then,
n(s) = number of ways of drawing 4 pearls out of 14


= C414 ways = 14×13×12×114×3×2×1= 1001


Let E be the event of drawing 4 pearls of the same colour.
Then, E = event of drawing (4 pearls out of 5) or (4 pearls out of 4) or (4 pearls out of 5)

  C15+ C44+ C15 = 5+1+5 =11

 P(E) = n(E)n(S)=111001=191  

 

 Required probability = 1-191=9091
