Q:

One third of a Number is 96. What will 67% of that Number be?

A) 192.96 B) 181.44
C) 169.92 D) 204.48
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 192.96

Explanation:

Let the Number be x. 

Given that one third of a Number is 96. 

i.e x = 3 x 96 = 288.

 67% of  x = x×67100=288×67100=192.96

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Rs. 15000

Explanation:

It won't requires that much solving.

Here given the increase in weekly collection by Rs. 1,05,000

That is this increase denotes for all 7 days.

=> Gross Collection increase per day = Rs. 1,05,0007 = Rs. 15,000

Hence, the gross collection increase per day = Rs. 15,000.

Q:

K and L start the business, with L investing the total capital of Rs. 40,000 on the condition that K pays L interest @ 8% per annum on his half of the capital. L is a working partner and receives Rs.1200 per month from the total profit and any profit reamaining is equally shared by both of them. At the end of the year, it was found that the income of L is twice that of K. Find the total profit for the year ?

A) Rs.44000 B) Rs.46400
C) Rs.480800 D) Rs.46000
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Rs.46400

Explanation:

Interest received by L from K = 8% of half of Rs.40,000  

8100×20000=1600  

 

Amount received by L per annum for being a working partner = 1200 x 12 = Rs.14,400

 

Let 'A' be the part of remaing profit that 'L' receives as his share.

 

 Total income of 'K' = only his share from the reamaing profit

 

                              = 'A', as both share equally.

 

Given income of L = Twice the income of K

 

--> (1600 + 14400 + A ) = 2A

--> A= Rs.16000

Thus total profit = 2A + Rs.14,400= 2(16000) + 14400 

                                                  = 32000 +14400 = Rs.46,400.

Q:

What is the Probability of all cars not clashing each other ?

triangular1504515041.jpg image

A) 1/8 B) 0
C) 1/4 D) 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 1/4

Explanation:

Non collision can happen only when all the cars move in same direction.

That is either all cars moving in clockwise direction or all cars moving in anti clockwise direction.
P(all cars not colliding)

= P(all cars moving in the same direction)

= P(all cars moving in clockwise direction)  +  P(all cars moving in anticlockwise direction)

= [p(A --> C) x p(C --> B) x p(B --> A)]  +  [p(A --> B) x p(B --> C) x p(C --> A)]

= [1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2] + [1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2]

= 1/8 + 1/8

= 1/4

Q:

P, Q and R start simultaneously from A to B. P reaches B, turns back and meet Q at a distance of 11 km from B. Q reached B, turns back and meet R at a distance of 9 km from B. If the ratio of the speeds of P and R is 3:2, what is the distance between A and B ?

A) 99 B) 100
C) 89 D) 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 99

Explanation:

Let, Distance between A and B = d

 

Distance travelled by P while it meets Q = d + 11

 

Distance travelled by Q while it meets P = d – 11

 

Distance travelled by Q while it meets R = d + 9

 

Distance travelled by R while it meets Q = d – 9

 

Here the ratio of speeds of P & Q => SP : SQ = d + 11 : d – 11

 

The ratio of speeds of Q & R => SQ : SR = d + 9 : d – 9

 

But given Ratio of speeds of P & R => P : R = 3 : 2

 SPSR = SPSQxSQSR = d+11d+9d-11d-9

 

=> d+11d+9d-11d-9 = 3/2

 

=>  d = 1, 99

 

=> d = 99 satisfies.

 

Therefore, Distance between A and B = 99
