Q:

6 men can complete a piece of work in 12 days. 8 women can complete the same piece of work in 18 days whereas 18 children can complete the piece of work in 10 days. 4 men, 12 women and 20 children work together for 2 days. If only men were to complete the remaining work in 1 day how many men would be required totally?

A) 38 B) 72
C) 36 D) 76
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 36

Explanation:

Given 4men, 12 women and 20 children work for  2 days.

Workdone for 2 days by 4men, 12 women and 20 children = 4 x 26 x 12 + 12 x 28 x 18 + 20 x 218 x 10 = 12

Therefore, remaining work = 1 - 12 = 12

To complete the same work by only men in 1 day,

We know that M1 x D1 = M2 x D2

Here M1 = 6 , D1 = 12 and M2 = M , D2 = 1

12 x 6 = M x 1

=> M = 12 x 6 = 72

=> But the remaining work = 1/2

Men required => 1/2 x 72 = 36

Only men required to Complete the remaining work in 1 day = 36.

Q:

5/9 of the part of the population in a village are females. If 30 % of the females are married. The percentage of unmarried males in the total males is ?

A) 62.5 % B) 125 %
C) 84.32 % D) 46.87 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 62.5 %

Explanation:

Let total population = p
number of females = 5p/9
number of males =(p-5p/9) = 4p/9
married females = 30% of 5p/9 = 30x5p/100x9 = p/6
married males = p/6
unmarried males =(4p/9-p/6) = 5p/18
Percentage of unmarried males in the total males = {(5p/18)/4p/9}x100 = (5p/18)x(9/4p) = 125/2 % = 62.5%

Q:

The milk and water in two vessels A and B are in the ratio 4:3 and 2:3 respectively. In what ratio the liquids in both the vessels be mixed to obtain a new mixture in vessel c consisting half milk and half water?

A) 8:3 B) 6:7
C) 7:5 D) 11:7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7:5

Explanation:

Milk in 1-litre mixture of A = 4/7 litre. 

Milk in 1-litre mixture of B = 2/5 litre. 

Milk in 1-litre mixture of C = 1/2 litre.

 

By rule of alligation we have required ratio X:Y   

   X                  :                 Y  

  4/7                                2/5  

           \                      /

              (Mean ratio)
                   (1/2) 

           /                      \

 (1/2 – 2/5)     :       (4/7 – 1/2)  

    1/10                      1/1 4 

 

So Required ratio = X : Y = 1/10 : 1/14 = 7:5
