  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Arun, Barun and Kiranmala start from the same place and travel in the same direction at speeds of 30, 40 and 60 km per hour respectively. Barun starts two hours after Arun. If Barun and Kiranmala overtake Arun at the same instant, how many hours after Arun did Kiranmala start?
     
    Solution

    Let us assume that Arun started running at 10 AM and Barun started at 12 noon. So, in these two hours distance traveled by arun is 60 km and the relative speed of barun w.r.t arun is 10 km/hr. so barun will overtake Arun after = 60/10 = 6 hours
    So, Barun reaches there at 6 P.M
    So, Kiranmala also overtakes t time to overtake Arun and the relative speed of Kiranmala w.r.t Arun is 30 km/hr and Arun ran for 8 hrs. So distance traveled by arun is while kiranmala distance traveled is t = 4 hours
    So After 4 hrs kiranmala will start running

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The content development team was working at a uniform rate to develop 2500 questions in ten weeks. But after working for six weeks, the content development team was informed by the management that the remaining questions had to be developed in one week. By what percentage does the team need to increase its rate of development of questions so that it can complete developing the remaining questions in one week?
     
    Solution

    Initial rate developing question per week
    = 2500/10 = 250 questions.
    After six weeks total developed questions
    = 250 x 6 = 1500 questions
    Remaining questions = 2500 - 1500 = 1000
    So, instead of developing 250 questions, the team has to develop 1000 question in the 7th weak.
    Required increase in the rate = (1000 - 250) x 100/250 = 300%

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The digits of all the two digit multiples of 8 are reversed. How many of the resulting numbers would be divisible by 4 but not by 8?
     
    Solution

    Two digit multiples of 8 are 16,24,32,40,48,56,64,72,80,88 and 96. Out of these only two numbers - 40 and 48 satisfy the given condition. so the answer is 2.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    If the sum of the first n terms of an Arithmetic Progression is 100 and the sum of the next n terms of the Arithmetic Progression is 300, then what is the ratio of the first term and the common difference?
     
    Solution

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    a6 + b6 is a prime number. If a and b are distinct integers, then what is their sum?

    Solution

    a6 + b6 = (a2 + b2)(a4 + b4 - a2b2)
    Since a6 + b2 is divisible by a2 + b2, it can be prime only in two cases:
    (i) a2 + b2 is 1: This is not possible since both a and b are integers.
    (ii) a6 + b6 = a2 + b2: if a and b are distinct integers and a6 + b6 is prime, then this is possible only if
    --> a = 1, b = -1
    --> a = -1, b = 1

    The sum of a and b is 0 in both the cases.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The LCM of two numbers is 168 and their HCF is 28. If the sum of the numbers is 140, then the numbers are
     
    Solution

    The product of two numbers is the product of the LCM and HCF of the two numbers. If the numbers are x and y, then x + y = 140, xy = 28 × 168.
    Solving for x and y, the numbers are 84 and 56.
    Alternative method:
    The two numbers are 28X and 28Y, where X and Y are coprimes.
    Also 28(X + Y) = 140
    So X + Y = 5
    Since LCM 28 × 6 = 168, XY = 6
    So X = 3, Y = 2

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    In a triangle \(A B C, A D\) and \(B E\) are medians drawn on \(B C\) and \(A C\) that intersect each other at \(O\) at the right angle. If the length of \(A D\) and \(B E\) are \(12 {~cm}\) and \(9 {~cm}\), then find the area of triangle \(A B C\)?
     
    Solution

    Given:

    \({AD}, {BE}=\) Medians

    \({AD}=12 {~cm}\)

    \({BE}=9 {~cm}\)

    \({AD}\) perpendicular on \(BE.\)

    We know that,

    The Medians intersect each at a point called Centroid. The centroid divides the median in the ratio \(2 ∶ 1.\) The line joining the centroid and the three vertices of the triangle divide the original triangle into \(3\) smaller triangles of equal area.

    Area of triangle \(=(\frac12) \times\) Base \(\times\) Height

    \(\because\) Centroid divides the median in the ratio \(2: 1\);

    \(\therefore {AO}=(\frac23) \times {AD}\)

    \(\Rightarrow {AO}=(\frac23) \times 12\)

    \(\Rightarrow {AO}=8 {~cm}\)

    Similarly;

    \({BO}=(\frac23) \times {BE}\)

    \(\Rightarrow {BO}=6 {~cm}\)

    \(\therefore\) Area of triangle \({AOB}=(\frac12) \times {BO} \times {AO}\)

    \(=(\frac12) \times 8 {~cm} \times 6 {~cm}\)

    \(=24 {~cm}^{2}\)

    \(\because\) Area of triangle \({ABC}=3 \times(\) Area of triangle \({AOB})\)

    \(=3 \times 24 {~cm}^{2}\)

    \(=72 {~cm}^{2}\)

    \(\therefore\) Area of triangle \({ABC}=72 {~cm}^{2}\)

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Let ABCDEF be a regular hexagon. What is the ratio of the area of the Δ ACE to that of the hexagon ABCDEF?
     
    Solution

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    In NutsAndBolts factory, one machine produces only nuts at the rate of 100 nuts per minute and needs to be cleaned for 5 minutes after production of every 1000 nuts. Another machine produces only bolts at the rate of 75 bolts per minute and needs to cleaned for10 minutes after production of every 1500 bolts. If both the machines start production at the same time, what is the minimum duration required for producing 9000 pairs of nuts and bolts?
     
    Solution

    Machine I:
    Number of nuts produced in one minute = 100
    To produce 1000 nuts time required = 10 min
    Clearing time for nuts = 5 min
    Over all time to produce 1000 nuts =15min
    Over all time to produce 9000 = 138 min - 5min
    = 133 min ....(1)
    Machine II:
    To produce 75 bolts time required = 1 min
    To produce 1500 bolts time required = 20 min
    Cleaning time for bolts = 10 min.
    Effective time to produce 1500 bolts = 30 min
    Effective time to produce 9000 bolts = 30 x 6 - 10 = 170 min .........(2)
    From (1) and (2)
    Minimum time = 170 minutes

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    If a seven-digit number \(5 a 7150 b\) is divisible by \(88\), then find the value of \(2 a-3 b\).

    Solution

    Given:

    \(5 a 7150 b\) is divisible by \(88.\)

    We know that,

    Divisibility rule of \(8\): A number is divisible by \(8\) if the last three digits of the number are divisible by \(8\).

    Divisibility rule of \(11\): A number is divisible by \(11\) if the difference of the sum of digits at even places and the sum of digits at odd places is either \(0\) or a multiple of \(11.\)

    If a number is divisible by \(88\) then it will be divisible by \(8\) and \(11.\)

    Now,

    Checking the divisibility of \(8\),

    Last three digits of the number \(=50 {~b}\)

    \(50 {~b}\) is divisible by \(8\) if \({b}=4\)

    Sum of the digits at the odd places \(={b}+5+7+5\)

    \(=4+5+7+5\)

    \(=21\)

    Checking the divisibility of \(11\),

    Sum of the digits at the even places \(=0+1+a\)

    \(=a+1\)

    Difference of even and odd places digits sum \(=21-(a+1)\)

    \(=20-a\)

    \((20-a)\) will give a multiple of \(11\) if \((20-a)=11\)

    \(a=20-11\)

    \(\Rightarrow a=9\)

    Putting the values of \(a\) and \(b\),

    \(2 a-3 b=2 \times 9-3 \times 4\)

    \(=18-12\)

    \(= 6\)

    \(\therefore\) The value of \(2 {a}-3 {b}\) is \(6.\)
