There Is A 5 Digit No. Sum Of 3 Pairs Of Digits Is Eleven Each. Last Digit Is 3 Times The First One. 3rd Digit Is 3 Less Than The Second. 4th Digit Is 4 More Than The Second One. Find The Number?

Answer»

We are GIVEN a 5 digit number

Let FIRST digit be 'X'

then 5th digit is '3X'

let 2ND digit be 'Y'

then 3rd digit is 'Y - 3'

and 4th digit is 'Y + 4'

then the no is '(X)(Y)(Y - 3)(Y + 4)(3X)'

from the above we can say 3X <= 9

so X<=3 and any of the digit in the number is <= 9

and also given that 3 pairs sum is 11... 

Also Y–3 ≥ 0 and Y+4 ≤ 9

⇒ Y ≥ 3 and Y ≤ 5 i.e. Y = 3,4 or 5

Find The Number Of Sides Of A Regular Convex Polygon Whose Interior Angle Is 40 Degrees?

Answer»

We have interior ANGLE as 40 degrees. 

HENCE LET n be the number of sides of that polygon, 

Then formula is 

⇒180 × (n-2) = 40 × n 

⇒180n – 360 = 40n 

⇒140n = 360 

Since, no INTEGER value of n is possible, hence such a polygon can not exist

Two Trains From The Points A And B Moving In Opposite Direction, At The Point They Meet The Second Train Travels 120 Kms More Than The First. The Speeds Are 50kmph And 60kmph Respectively Find The Distance Between A And B?

Answer»

We know that 

DISTANCE = TIME × speed 

Suppose FIRST TRAIN travelled the distance x kms from A. 

Then second train will travel the distance (x + 120) kms from B. 

Let they MET each other after t time 

∴ (x + 120)/60 = (x/50) 

⇒ x = 600 kms 

But the distances between two point is (x + x + 120) 

= 2x +120 

= 2× 600 + 120 

= 1320 km

We know that 

Distance = time × speed 

Suppose first train travelled the distance x kms from A. 

Then second train will travel the distance (x + 120) kms from B. 

Let they met each other after t time 

∴ (x + 120)/60 = (x/50) 

⇒ x = 600 kms 

But the distances between two point is (x + x + 120) 

= 2x +120 

= 2× 600 + 120 

= 1320 km

A Truck Covers A Distance Of 640 Km In 10 Hrs. A Car Covers The Same Distance In 8 Hrs. What Is The Respective Ratio Between The Speed Of The Truck And The Car?

Answer»

Both truck and car covers a distance = 640 km

Time taken by truck is 10 HRS.

∴ Speed of truck = 640/10 = 64 km/hr

Time taken by car is 8 hrs.

∴ Speed of car = 640/8 = 80 km/hr

∴ Ratio between speed of truck and car =

Speed of truck : speed of car = 64 : 80 = 4 : 5

Both truck and car covers a distance = 640 km

Time taken by truck is 10 hrs.

∴ Speed of truck = 640/10 = 64 km/hr

Time taken by car is 8 hrs.

∴ Speed of car = 640/8 = 80 km/hr

∴ Ratio between speed of truck and car =

Speed of truck : speed of car = 64 : 80 = 4 : 5

If 9 Men Working 7.5 Hours A Day Can Finish A Piece Of Work In 20 Days, Then How Many Days Will Be Taken By 12 Men, Working 6 Hours A Day To Finish The Work? It Is Being Given That 2 Men Of Latter Type Work As Much As 3 Men Of The Former Type?

Answer»

Work done by 9 men in a day = 1/20 

∴Work done by 1 man in a day for 7.5 hours = (1/20) ÷ 9 = 1/180 

∴ Work done by 1 man in an hour = (1/180) ÷ (7.5) = 1/1350 

Given that 2 men of latter TYPE are equal to 3 men of former type ⇒ 1 man of latter type = 1.5 men of former type. 

∴ Work done by 1 man of latter type in an hour = 1.5 × (1/1350) = 1/900 

∴ Work done by 1 man in 6 hours = 6 × (1/900) = 1/150 

∴ Work done by 12 men in a day working 6 hours/day = 12 × (1/150) = 2/25 

Days REQUIRED to finish the work = 25/2 = 12.5 days.

Work done by 9 men in a day = 1/20 

∴Work done by 1 man in a day for 7.5 hours = (1/20) ÷ 9 = 1/180 

∴ Work done by 1 man in an hour = (1/180) ÷ (7.5) = 1/1350 

Given that 2 men of latter type are equal to 3 men of former type ⇒ 1 man of latter type = 1.5 men of former type. 

∴ Work done by 1 man of latter type in an hour = 1.5 × (1/1350) = 1/900 

∴ Work done by 1 man in 6 hours = 6 × (1/900) = 1/150 

∴ Work done by 12 men in a day working 6 hours/day = 12 × (1/150) = 2/25 

Days required to finish the work = 25/2 = 12.5 days.

A Fuel Dealer Mixes Two Brands Of Fuel Which Cost In The Ratio 2:3. A Solution Containing 30% Brand A And Remaining Brand B Yields Profit Of 10% When Sold At Rs 297. What Is Cost Of Brand B?

Answer»

Let quantity of solution sold be 1 litre

When the solution is sold for 297, the profit percent = 10%

HENCE CP of of solution = SP × 100/(100+P%)

⇒CP = 297 × 100/(100+10)

⇒CP = 270

RATIO of quantities of brand A and brand B is 3:7

Let their COSTS be 2C and 3c.

⇒ 0.3×2c + 0.7×3c = 270

⇒ 2.7c = 270

⇒ c = 100

Hence cost of Brand B = 3c = 300

Let quantity of solution sold be 1 litre

When the solution is sold for 297, the profit percent = 10%

Hence CP of of solution = SP × 100/(100+P%)

⇒CP = 297 × 100/(100+10)

⇒CP = 270

Ratio of quantities of brand A and brand B is 3:7

Let their costs be 2c and 3c.

⇒ 0.3×2c + 0.7×3c = 270

⇒ 2.7c = 270

⇒ c = 100

Hence cost of Brand B = 3c = 300

A Man Buys 12 Litres Of Solution A Which Contains 20% Of The Liquid And The Rest Is Water. He Then Mixes It With 10 Litres Of Another Solution B With 30% Of Liquid. What Is The % Of Water In The New Mixture?

Answer»

% of Liquid in SOLUTION A = 20%

⇒ % of Water in Solution A = 80%

Volume of Solution A = 12 Litres

Volume of Water in Solution A = (80/100) × 12 = 9.6 Litres

% of Liquid in Solution B = 30%

⇒ % of Water in Solution A = 70%

Volume of Solution B = 10 Litres

Volume of Water in Solution B = (70/100) × 10 = 7 Litres

If Solution A is MIXED with Solution B

⇒Net TOTAL Volume of Solution = (12 + 10) = 22 LTRS

⇒Net Total Volume of Water in Solution = (9.6 + 7) = 16.6 Ltrs

% of Water in New Mixture = (Volume of Water in New Mixture / Volume of New Mixture) × 100

% of Water in New Mixture = (16.6 / 22) × 100 = 75.45%

% of Liquid in Solution A = 20%

⇒ % of Water in Solution A = 80%

Volume of Solution A = 12 Litres

Volume of Water in Solution A = (80/100) × 12 = 9.6 Litres

% of Liquid in Solution B = 30%

⇒ % of Water in Solution A = 70%

Volume of Solution B = 10 Litres

Volume of Water in Solution B = (70/100) × 10 = 7 Litres

If Solution A is mixed with Solution B

⇒Net Total Volume of Solution = (12 + 10) = 22 Ltrs

⇒Net Total Volume of Water in Solution = (9.6 + 7) = 16.6 Ltrs

% of Water in New Mixture = (Volume of Water in New Mixture / Volume of New Mixture) × 100

% of Water in New Mixture = (16.6 / 22) × 100 = 75.45%

Grass In Lawn Grows Equally Thick And In A Uniform Rate. It Takes 40 Days For 40 Cows And 60 Days For 30 Cows To Eat The Whole Of The Grass. How Many Cows Are Needed To Eat The Grass In 96 Days?

Answer»

Let quantity of grass initially = g 

Let r be the rate at which grass grow in 1 day, 

Let c be the quantity of grass a cow EAT in 1 day

we can deduce from ‘. It takes 40 days for 40 COWS and 60 days for 30 cows to eat the whole of the grass’ that 

⇒ g + 40r = 40 × 40c = 1600c-----------[1] 

and

⇒ g + 60r = 60 × 30c = 1800c 

⇒ g = 1800c - 60r----------------2

Putting this value of g in eqn [1] 

we have 

⇒ 1800c – 60r + 40r = 1600c 

⇒ 200c = 20r 

⇒ C = 0.1 r 

⇒ r = 10c 

Let m be the number of days required by 20 cows to eat the entire of the field = m 

Then 

We have the eqn as 

⇒ g + 96r = 96nc 

⇒ 96nc = 1800c - 60r + 96r (as we have g=1800c-60r from eqn 2) 

⇒ 96nc = 1800c + 36r 

⇒ 96nc = 1800c+ 36 × 10c 

⇒ 96nc = 1800c + 360c 

⇒ 96nc = 2160c 

HENCE we have 96nc = 2160c 

Dividing both the sides by 96C 

We get 

N = 22.5

⇒ 96nc = 1800c + 36r 

⇒ 96nc = 1800c+ 36 × 10c 

⇒ 96nc = 1800c + 360c 

⇒ 96nc = 2160c 

Hence we have 96nc = 2160c 

Dividing both the sides by 96c

According to the given question: 

⇒ Volume of the water required in the tank = (200 × 150 × 2) m3 = 60000 m3 . . . 

∴ Length of water column flown in1 MIN =(20 × 1000)/60 m = 1000/3 m 

∴ Volume flown per minute = 1.5 × 1.25 × (1000/3) m3 = 625 m3 . 

∴ Required time = (60000/625)min = 96min. 

Hence, the required answer is 96 minutes.

A Certain Number Of Two Digits Is Three Times The Sum Of Its Digits. If 45 Be Added To It, The Digits Are Reversed. The Number Is?

Answer»

LET x and y are the digits of the number with x in ten’s place and y in one’s place. 

So, 10x+y is the value of the number. 

Given 10x + y = 3 (x + y) 

⇒7x – 2y = 0 …………….(i) 

And also given that, 

10x + y + 45 = 10y + x (∵ digits are reversed⇒ x in one’s and y in ten’s place). 

⇒ 9x – 9y = -45 

⇒ x – y = -5 ………………(ii) 

PUT value of y from eq. (i) to eq. (ii) 

⇒ x – (7x/2) = -5 

⇒ x = 2 

And y = 7

So the number is 27
