Q:

When I was married 10 years ago my wife is the 6th member of the family. Today my father died and a baby born to me.The average age of my family during my marriage is same as today. What is the age of Father when he died ?

A) 50 yrs	B) 60 yrs
C) 70 yrs	D) 65 yrs

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 60 yrs

Explanation:

Let the Father be x years when he died

Average Age 10 years ago be A

Total Age 10 years ago = 6*A

Total Age after 10 years(Just before father's Death) = 6A + 6*10 = 6A + 60

Father Died and Baby was born => the Total number of people in the family is Same (6)
Baby born today so age of baby = 0

(6A +60 - x)/6 = 6A/6
=> A + 10 -(x/6) = A
=> x/6 = 10
=> x = 60

Therefore we can conclude that the father was 60 years old when he died.

Q:

Two pipes can fill a tank in 20 and 24 minutes respectively and a waste pipe can empty 3 gallons per minute. All the three pipes working together can fill the tank in 15 minutes. The capacity of the tank is:

A) 60 gallons	B) 100 gallons
C) 120 gallons	D) 180 gallons

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 120 gallons

Explanation:

Work done by the waste pipe in 1 minute = $\frac{1}{15} - (\frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{24}) = \frac{1}{15} - \frac{11}{120} = - \frac{1}{40}$ [-ve sign means emptying]

Volume of $\frac{1}{40}$ part = 3 gallons

Volume of whole = (3 x 40) gallons = 120 gallons.

Q:

A polygon has 44 diagonals, then the number of its sides are ?

A) 13	B) 9
C) 11	D) 7

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 11

Explanation:

Let the number of sides be n.

The number of diagonals is given by ⁿC₂ - n

^{Therefore, n}C₂ - n = 44, n>0

ⁿC₂ - n = 44

n²- 3n - 88 = 0

n²-11n + 8n - 88 = 0

n(n - 11) + 8(n - 11) = 0

n = -8 or n = 11.

As n>0, n will not be -8. Therefore, n=11.
