Q:

What is the primary component of natural gas?

A) Nitrogen B) Ethane
C) Propane D) Methane
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Methane

Explanation:

Natural gas is primarily composed of methane, but also contains ethane, propane, and heavier hydrocarbons.

 

Natural gas is a colorless, tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic gas. Because it is odorless, mercaptan is added to the natural gas, in very small amounts to give the gas a distinctive smell of rotten eggs. This strong smell can alert you of a potential gas leak.

 

It also contains small amounts of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulphide and trace amounts of water.

Q:

In a college, number of boys is 75% of number of girls. Difference between boys and girls is 35. On a particular day 20% boys were absent, then find the number of boys those who present?

A) 72 B) 84
C) 93 D) 81
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 84

Difference is 1 unit = 35

So, 3 units = 35 x 3 = 105

If 20% absent, that’s mean 80% present.

So, present boys = 80% of 105 = 80×105100 = 84

Q:

A person starting with 64 rupees and making 6 bets, wins three times and loses three times, the wins and loses occurring in random order. The chance for a win is equal to the chance for a loss. If each wager is for half the money remaining at the time of the bet, then the final result is:

A) A gain of Rs. 27 B) A loss of Rs. 37
C) A loss of Rs. 27 D) A gain of Rs. 37
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) A loss of Rs. 37

Explanation:

As the win leads to multiplying the amount by 1.5 and loss leads to multiplying the amount by 0.5, we will multiply the initial amount by 1.5 thrice and by 0.5 thrice (in any order).

The overall resultant will remain same.

So final amount with the person will be (in all cases):

64(1.5)(1.5)(1.5)(0.5)(0.5)(0.5)= Rs. 27

Hence the final result is: 

64 − 27 37

A loss of Rs.37
