A and B together can complete a work in 3 days. They start together but after 2 days, B left the work. If the work is completed after two more days, B alone could do the work in

A5 days

B6 days

C9 days

D10 days

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 19:44

Answer is : 6 days

Explanation:

(A+B)'s one day's work $= \frac{1}{3}$ part
(A+B) works 2 days together $= \frac{2}{3}$ part;
Remaining work $= 1-\frac{2}{3} \implies \frac{1}{3}$part;
1/3 part of work is completed by A in two days;
Hence, one day's work of A = $\frac{1}{6}$;
Then, one day's work of B$= \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{6}\implies \frac{1}{6}$;
So, B alone can complete the whole work in 6 days.

What part of a ditch, 48 m long 16.5 m broad and 4 m deep can be filled by the earth got by digging a cylindrical tunnel of diameter 4 m and length 56 m ?

A $$\frac{1}{9}$$

B $$\frac{2}{9}$$

C $$\frac{7}{9}$$

D $$\frac{8}{9}$$

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 16:54

Answer is : b.) $\frac{2}{9}$

Explanation:

Volume of the earth dugout as a tunnel = πr2h

= $\Big(\frac{22}{7}\Big) \times 2 \times 2 \times 56$

= $\text{704 }m^3$
$\text{Volume of the ditch = }\frac{(48 \times 33)}{(2)}\times 4 \implies 24 \times 33 \times 4 \implies \text{3168 }m^3$
∴ $\text{Part required = }\frac{704}{3168} \implies \frac{2}{9}$

A6 cm

B3.2 cm

C3 cm

D3.5 cm

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 16:39

Answer is : c.) 3 cm

Explanation:

Let original radius be r.

Then, according to the question,
$\Large \pi (r+1)^{2}-\pi r^{2} =22$

$\implies \Large \pi\times [(r+1)^{2}-r^{2}] =22$

$\implies \Large \frac{22}{7}\times (r+1+r)(r+1-r) =22$

$\implies 2r+1=7 \implies 2r=6$

$r= \Large \frac{6}{2} =\text{3 cm}$

A $$21 m^2$$

B $$42 m^2$$

C $$54 m^2$$

D $$108 m^2$$

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 16:11

Answer is : c.) $54\text{ m}^2$

Explanation:

If the floor is in rectangular shape

Then your answer is, 

Perimeter of rectangle =2(l+b) 

18=2(l+b) 

Then, 

$\text{Area of four walls =}2(l+b)\times h$

$\text{Area of four walls=}18\times3$
$\text{Area of four walls = }54\text{ m²}$

A120

B150

C200

D300

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 16:2

Answer is : B.) 150

Explanation:

Let the length of the train is x meter and Speed of the train is y meter/second
Then $\frac{x}{y} = 15$ [because $\frac{distance}{speed} = time$] 
$\implies y = \frac{15}{x}$

$\begin{aligned} => \frac{x+100}{25} = \frac{x}{15} \\ x = 150 \text{ meters} \end{aligned}$

So length of the train is 150 meters

Explanation:

Total distance = 30 + 40 = 70 km 

 

Total time taken =  $\Large \frac{30}{6}+5=\frac{60}{6} = 10 h$

Therefore, Required average speed =$\Large \frac{70}{10} = 7 km/h$

A8 sec.

B6 sec.

C7 sec.

D5 sec.

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 15:28

Answer is : B. 6 sec.

Explanation:

Length of the 1st train = 105 m;
Length of the 2nd train = 90 m.
Relative speed of the trains,
= 45+72 = 117kmph
$= 117\times\frac{5}{18} = 32.5 m/sec$
$\text{Time taken to cross each other},$
$=\frac{\text{ (Length of 1st train + length of 2nd train)}}{\text{relative speed of the trains}}.$
Time taken = $\frac{195}{32.5}$ = 6 secs.

BRs.1000

CRs.960

DRs.900

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 10:17

Answer is : A. Rs.1200

Explanation:

If there is Loss then ,

$\text{Cost Price} = \Big[ \frac{100}{(100 -Loss\%)}\Big] \times \text{Selling Price}$

CP of chair = $\frac{100}{(100-25)}\times720$

= $\frac{100}{75}\times 720$ 

= $Rs. 960$

To gain 25%,

$\text{Selling Price} = \Big[\frac{(100 +Gain \%) }{ 100}\Big] \times \text{Cost Price}$

$\text{Selling Price} = \Big[\frac{(100 + 25)}{100}\Big]\times 960$

$=\frac{125}{100}\times 960$

$= Rs. 1200$

pavan ? Apr 6 '2018 at 13:37

Correct Answer:

C) Rs.150

Explanation:

Let CP = x

The, SP =$\Large\frac{110x}{100} = Rs.\frac{11x}{10}$

Now, CP = 96% of x =$\Large\frac{96x}{100} = Rs.\frac{24x}{25}$

Now according to the question,

SP = Rs.$\left( \frac{11x}{10} + 6 \right)$

$\left( \frac{11x}{10} + 6 \right) = \Large118\frac{3}{4}% of \frac{24x}{25}$

$\Large\frac{11x + 60}{10} = \frac{475}{400}\times\frac{24x}{25} = \frac{57x}{50}$

$\implies 550x + 3000 = 570x$
$20x = 3000$
$X = \Large\frac{3000}{20} = 150$

CP = 150

A22

Nithin K ? Apr 3 '2018 at 20:1

Answer is : 12

Explanation :

Let the original price be x Rs.

$=\frac{80}{100} \times x = \frac{4x}{5} Rs$

$SP = \frac{4x}{5} \times \frac{140}{100} = \frac{28x}{25} Rs$

Gain on original price

$\frac{28x}{25} - x =\frac{3x}{25}$

$\therefore \text{Gain % =}\frac{3x}{\frac{25}{x} \times 100} \text{= 12%}$

=12%

ARs.5 per kg

BRs.6.15 per kg

CRs.5.65 per kg

Nithin K ? Apr 2 '2018 at 22:21

Answer is : Rs.5 per kg

Explanation:

20% of 120/- is 24 /- 

Therefore we get 6kg sugar by 24/- 
Then
24=6kg
? =1kg
Then 1kg price is 4/- ( reduction price )
Original price:
100% = ?
80% = 4/- ( because in question he gives 20% reduction)
There fore $\frac{(100 \times 4)}{80}$ = 5/-
