Q:

On a school’s Annual day sweets were to be equally distributed amongst 112 children. But on that particular day, 32 children were absent. Thus the remaining children got 6 extra sweets. How many sweets was each child originally supposed to get ?

A) 14 B) 16
C) 12 D) 15
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 15

Explanation:

Let 'K' be the total number of sweets.
Given total number of students = 112
If sweets are distributed among 112 children,
Let number of sweets each student gets = 'L'

=> K/112 = L ....(1)
But on that day students absent = 32 => remaining = 112 - 32 = 80
Then, each student gets '6' sweets extra.

=> K/80 = L + 6 ....(2)
from (1) K = 112L substitute in (2), we get
112L = 80L + 480
32L = 480
L = 15

Therefore, 15 sweets were each student originally supposed to get.

Q:

A is two years older than B who is twice as old as C. If the total of the ages of A, B and C be 27, then how old is B ?

A) 10 yrs B) 11 yrs
C) 12 yrs D) 13 yrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10 yrs

Explanation:

Let C's age be x years.
Then, B's age = 2x years.
A's age = (2x + 2) years.
(2x + 2) + 2x + x = 27
5x = 25 => x = 5
Hence, B's age = 2x = 10 years.

A) 10:10 pm B) 9:50 pm

Explanation:

Distance = 70 x 1 ½ = 105 km

Relative Speed = 85 – 70 = 15

Time = 105/15 = 7 hrs

4:30 + 7 hrs = 11.30 p.m.

Q:

If 1/8 of a pencil is black, 1/2 of the remaining is white and the remaining, 3/2cm is blue. Find the total length of the pencil?

A) 8 cms B) 7 cms
C) 9 cms D) 11 cms
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8 cms

Explanation:

Let the total length of the pencil = x cms

From the given data,

'x/8' is black

Remaining part = x - x/8 = 7x/8

1/2 of 7x/8 is white

=> 7x/16 is white (Remaining part is 7x/16)

And given that the remaining part is blue and is 3 1/2 cm = 7/2 = 3.5 cm

That remaining part = 7x/16

Therefore,

7x/16 = 7/2

x = 16/2 = 8

Hence, the total length of the pencil = x = 8 cm.

Q:

The Ankle is a third-class lever.

A) TRUE B) FALSE
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) FALSE

Explanation:

False. The ankle is not the third-class lever in the body.


 


Levers are typically labeled as first class, second class, or third class. All three types are found in the body, but most levers in the human body are third class.

First-class levers in the human body are rare and have the axis (fulcrum) located between the weight (resistance) and the force. One example is the joint between the head and the first vertebra.


In a second-class lever, the weight (resistance) is located between the axis (fulcrum) and the force. An example of a second-class lever in the human body is found in the lower leg when someone stands on tiptoes


In a third-class lever, the most common in the human body, force is applied between the resistance (weight) and the axis (fulcrum). There are numerous third-class levers in the human body; one example can be illustrated in the elbow joint.
