Pick out the most effective

meaningfully complete.

enemy.
(a) With
(b) at (c) of (d) in
Ans: (b)

6. The

7. The
product of two numbers is 1320 and their HCF is 6. The LCM of the number is:
(a) 220
(b) 1314 (c) 1326 (d) 7920
Ans: (a) The product of the numbers is equal to HCF x LCM
8. The
average age of 30 kids is 9 years. If the teachers age is included the average
becomes 10 years. What is the teacher’s age?
(a) 30
(b) 25 (c) 40 (d) none of these
Ans: (c)
The total age of 30 kids ->
30 x 9 -> 270.
Including the teacher the
number becomes 31 and the average 10.
Total age of kids + teacher
-> 31 x 10 -> 310.
Hence the age of the teacher
is 310 – 270 -> 40 years.
9. A,
B and C can complete a piece of work in 24, 6, and 12 days respectively. If
they work together then in how many days the work will be over?
(a) 1/24
days (b) 7/24 days (c) 3 and 3/7 days (d) 4days
Ans: (c)
A, B and C together in one day
can complete ---- 1/24 + 1/6 + 1/12
-> 7/24 work.
Hence, they will complete the
whole work in 24/7 days -> 3 and 3/7
days.
10. Two
trains running in opposite directions cross a man standing on the platform in
27 seconds and 17 seconds respectively and they cross each other in 23 seconds.
What is the ratio of their speeds?
(a) 1
: 3 (b) 3 : 2 (c) 3 : 4 (d) None of these
Ans: (b)
Let the speed of one train be ‘X’
and the other train ‘Y’.
Then the length of the first
train is 27X and the length of the second train is 17Y.
The trains running in opposite
directions cross each other in 23 seconds. In this time they travel the length
of both the trains.
Hence we have -> (27X + 17Y)/ X + Y = 23 ( Length / speed = time)
Reducing the above we have
-> 27X + 17Y = 23X + 23Y. Reducing further we get 2X = 3Y or
X/Y = 3/2.
Hence the ratio of their
speeds is 3 : 2.
11. A
& B are children of D. Who is the father of A? To answer this question
which of the statements (1) and (2) is necessary?
(1) C
is the brother of A and son of C
(2) F
is the mother of B
(a) Only
(1) (b) Only (2) (c) either (1) or (2) (d) both (1) and (2)
Ans: (b)
12. If
P $ Q means P is the brother of Q. P # Q means P is the mother of Q. P * Q means P is the daughter of Q.
In A # B $ C * D who is the
father?
(a) D (b) B (c) C (d)
Data inadequate.
Ans: (a)
A is the mother of B. B is the
brother of C and C is the daughter of D. Hence D is the father.
