1.

5/9 of the part of the population in a villagae are males.if 30 % of the males
are married.the percentage of unmarried females in the total population is..
Let total population = p
no. of males =5p/9
no. of females =(p-5p/9)=4p/9
married males = 30% of 5p/9=30*5p/100*9 =p/6
married females = p/6
unmarried females =(4p/9-p/6)=5p/18
%age of unmarried females in the total population = {(5p/18)/p}*100= 250/9% (ans)

4.

A man spend 810 in buying trouser at Rs 70 each and shirt at 30 each.what

will be the ratio of trouser and shirt when the maximum number of trouser
is purchased>?
Answer : 9 Trousers
Reasons:
Lets assume S as price of shirt and T as price of trousers, we have bellow equation:
70 T + 30 S = 810
Simplifying we get : 7T + 3S = 81
T = ( 81 - 3*S )/7
We need to find the least value of S which will make (81 - 3*S) divisible by 7
Simplifying by taking 3 as common factor 3*(27-S) / 7
Looking at the above equation its not difficult to find out least value of S as 6 so that 27- 3S
becomes divisible by S
Hence T = (81-3*S)/7 = (81-3*6)/7 = 63/7 = 9

3 machines a,b,c can be used to produce a product. Machine a will take 60

hours to produce a million units. Machine b is twice as fast as machine a.

Machine c takes the same amount of time as machine a and b taken

together. How much time will be required to produce a million units if all the
three machines are used simultaneously?
Option
(a) 12 hours
(b) 10 hours
(c) 8 hours
(d) None of these
(b) 10 hours
1 hour capacity of
Machine a =1/60 million
Machine b =2*(1/60)=1/30 million
Machine c =(1/60)+(1/30)=1/20 million
So in 1 hour Machines a,b & c will produce (1/60)+(1/30)+(1/20)=1/10 million
Time taken to produce 1 million units=1/(1/10)=10 hours

The top and bottom of a tower were seen

to be at angles of depression 30 and 60 from the top of a
hill of height 100 m. Find the height of the tower
By making A diagram
AC represents the hill and DE represents the pole
Given that AC = 100 m
angleXAD = angleADB = 30 ( AX || BD )
angleXAE = angleAEC = 60 ( AX || CE)
Let DE = h

Then, BC = DE = h, AB = (100-h) ( AC=100 and BC = h), BD = CE

tan 60=ACCE=>3=100CE=>CE = 1003--- (1)
tan 30=ABBD=>13=100hBD=>13=100h(1003)
( BD = CE and Substituted the value of CE from equation 1 )
=>(100h)=131003=1003=33.33=>h=10033.33=66.67 m
i.e., the height of the pole = 66.67 m

A man buys 12 lts of liquid which contains 20% of the liquid and the rest is
water. He then mixes it with 10 lts of another mixture with 30% of liquid.
What is the % of water in the new mixture?
Ans: 20% in 12 lts is 2.4. So water = 12-2.4 = 9.6 lts. 30% of 10 lts = 3. So water in 2nd
mixture = 10-3 = 7 lts. Now total quantity = 12 + 10 = 22 lts. Total water in it will be 9.6 +
7 = 16.6 lts. % of water = (100*16.6)/22 = 75.45

A company contracts to paint 3 houses. Mr.Brown can paint a house in 6

days while Mr.Black would take 8 days and Mr.Blue 12 days. After 8 days
Mr.Brown goes on vacation and Mr. Black begins to work for a period of 6
days. How many days will it take Mr.Blue to complete the contract?
A. 7 B. 8 C. 11 D. 12
option c is correct..
brown work for 8 days means he completed house 1st +(2/6) part of the house 2nd...in 8
days...
remaining part of house 2nd = 1-(1/3)= 2/3.
now black completes a house in 8 days but he works for 6 days ..so part of house completed
by black = 6/8 =3/4..
now part of house 3rd completed by black = (3/4)-(2/3) = 1/12..
so means remaining part of house 3rd to be painted by blue = 11/12
which he will complete in 11 days....

A cylinder is 6 cms in diameter and 6 cms in height. If spheres of the same

size are made from the material obtained, what is the diameter of each
sphere?

(a) 5 cms (b) 2 cms (c) 3 cms (d) 4 cms

since the sphere is made out of the cylinder material their volume will be same
volume of cylinder = pi * 3^2 * 6
volume of one sphere = 4/3 * pi * r ^3 (where r is radius of sphere)
so if there are N such sphere's
equating the volumes,
pi*r^2*h = N*(4/3)*pi*R^3
N is the number of spheres,
substituting the, r and h
9*6 = N*(4/3)*(D/2)^3
D is the diameter of a sphere,
N = (9*6*3*8)/(4*D^3)
N = 324/D^3
now substitute the given answers for D and find the values for N, since a N has to be an
integer only value fit for D is 3,
answer is C

A person wants to buy 3 paise and 5 paise stamps costing exactly one
rupee. If he buys which of the following number of stamps he won't able to
buy 3 paise stamps.
let 'x' be no. of 3p stamps & 'y' be no. of 5p stamps
therefr 3x+5y=100
he wont be able to buy 3p stamps iff he buys maximum quant of 5p stamps
i.e. y should be max and x min
thus lets take x=0
3(0)+5(y)=100
5y=100
y=20
thus , if he buys 20 5p stamps, he wont be able to buy 3p stamps... SIMPLE!!!

A works thrice as much as B. If A takes 60 days less than B to do a work

then find the number of days it would take to complete the work if both
work together?
if A finishes the job in x days
B finishes it in 3x days
3x = x + 60
thus
x = 30
in one hour
1/t = 1/30 + 1/90 = 4/90
where t is the number of days they finish the job together.

t = 90/4 = 22.5 days

Two trains move in the same direction at speeds 50 kmph and 32 kmph
respectively. A man in the slower train observes that 15 seconds elapse
before the faster train completely passes by him. What is the length of
faster train?
(a) 100m (b) 75m (c) 120m (d) 50m
As both trains move in same direction, the relative velocity is (50-32)Km/hr
=> Velocity = 18Km/hr = 18*(5/18) m/s = 5m/s
As 15seconds is the total time taken by the train,
=> Length of train = 5*15 = 75m

How many 1's are there in the binary form of 8*1024 + 3*64 + 3
8*1024 = 1000*10000000000 (the product will have one 1 only)
3*64 = 11*1000000 (the product will contain two 1)
3 = 11
when added , we get five 1.

A contractor agreeing to finish a work in 150 days, employed 75 men each

working 8 hours daily. After 90 days, only 2/7 of the work was completed.
Increasing the number of men by ________ each working now for 10 hours
daily, the work can be completed in time.
Answer is 150 workers
total man work in 90 days is = 90*75*8==>54000 man work
remaining work =1-2/7=5/7
now, 2/7 work have 54000 man work
5/7 work will have (54000*7/2)*5/7 ==> 135000 man work
days left =60 and 10 hrs per day
so, no. of workers = 135000/(60*10)==>225
this is total workers.
so, workers needed ==>225-75= 150 workers

5 men or 8 women do equal amount of work in a day. a job requires 3 men

and 5 women to finish the job in 10 days how many woman are required to
finish the job in 14 days.
a) 10 b) 7 c) 6 d) 12
1 man can do the work of 8/5 = 1.6 women
equivalent of 3*1.6 + 5 = 9.8 women take 10 days
so women needed to do the work in 14 days
= [10/14]*9.8

Three types of tea the a,b,c costs Rs. 95/kg,100/kg and70/kg

respectively.How many kgs of each should be blended to produce 100 kg of
mixture worth Rs.90/kg, given that the quantities of band c are equal
a)70,15,15 b)50,25,25 c)60,20,20 d)40,30,30
ans b)50,25,25 satisfies the condition.
given quantities of b and c are equal .
therefore instead of considering them as a different quantities take average of both and
consider it as a single entity .
so the cost of the mixture "D" (equal quantities of "B" and "C") is 170/2=85rs/kg
now the tea contains only "A" of 95 rs/per and "D" of 85 rs/kg.

it is clearly seen that "A" is 5 more and "D" is 5 less than the required cost per kg .
therefore 50/50 will go well .
A=50kg and D=50kg. (D= B&C in equal ratio). therefore B&C=25kg each .
(A:B:C)=(50,25,25)

in town of 500 people,285 read hindu and 212 read indian express and 127
read times of india 20 read hindu and times of india and 29 read hindu and
indian express and 35 read times of india and indian express . 50 read no
news paper . then how many read only one paper?
HIndu = 285
TOI = 127
IE = 212
now
Hindu and TOI both is = 20
TOI and IE both is = 35
Hindu and IE both is = 29
now suppose Hindu , TOI nd IE all is = x ;
so,only Hindu is = 285-20-29-x = 236-x ;
only TOI is = 127-20-35-x = 72-x ;
only IE is = 212-35-29-x = 148-x ;
now, 236-x + 72-x + 148-x + 20 + 29 + 35 + x + 50 = 500 590 -2x = 500
so, x = 45 this is the value who read all the 3 dailies.
so,result is = 236-45 + 72-45 + 148-45 = 191 + 27 + 103 = 321.

There are two circles, one circle is inscribed and another circle is
circumscribed over a square. What is the ratio of area of inner to outer
circle?
For simplicity consider side of the square as 1. Now radius of inner circle =1/2. Formula for
diagonal of the square = side*sqrt(2) = 1*sqrt(2). Half the diagonal = (1/2)*sqrt(2) =
1/sqrt(2). We got radiuses of both circles. So calculate areas and find ratio. Inner circle
area= pi*(1/2)^2 and Outer circle = pi*(1/sqrt(2))^2. Divide both, you will get ratio as 1:2

There are two candles of equal lengths and of different thickness. The
thicker one lasts of six hours. The thinner 2 hours less than the thicker one.
Ramesh lights the two candles at the same time. When he went to bed he
saw the thicker one is twice the length of the thinner one. How long ago did
Ramesh light the two candles .
Both are Equal length: L
Thick's burning rate: L/6
Thin's burning rate: L/4
After X hours (at bed time) of burning, remaining lengths:
Thick: L-(LX/6) and Thin: L-(LX/4)
But, at X hours, thick is twice as long as thin. i.e.:
L-(LX/6)=2[L-(LX/4)]
1-(X/6)=2-(X/2)
Solve for X and get 3.

My flight takes of at 2am from a place at 18N 10E and landed 10 Hrs later at a place with
coordinates 36N70W. What is the local time when my plane landed?
6:00 am b) 6:40am c) 7:40 d) 7:00 e) 8:00
Sol) The destination place is 80 degree west to the starting place. Hence the time
difference between these two places is 5 hour 20 min. (=24hr*80/360).

When the flight landed, the time at the starting place is 12 noon (2 AM + 10 hours).
Hence, the time at the destination place is 12 noon - 5:20 hours = 6: 40 AM

A plane moves from 9N40E to 9N40W. If the plane starts at 10 am and takes 8 hours
to reach the destination, find the local arrival time ?
Sol) Since it is moving from east to west longitide we need to add both
ie,40+40=80
multiply the ans by 4
=>80*4=320min
convert this min to hours ie, 5hrs 33min
It takes 8hrs totally . So 8-5hr 30 min=2hr 30min
So the ans is 10am+2hr 30 min
=>ans is 12:30 it will reach
The size of the bucket is N kb. The bucket fills at the rate of 0.1 kb per millisecond. A
programmer sends a program to receiver. There it waits for 10 milliseconds. And response
will be back to programmer in 20 milliseconds. How much time the program takes to get a
response back to the programmer, after it is sent? Please tell me the answer with
explanation. Very urgent.
Sol) see it doesn't matter that wat the time is being taken to fill the bucket.after reaching
program it waits there for 10ms and back to the programmer in 20 ms.then total time to get
the response is 20ms +10 ms=30ms...it's so simple....
A file is transferred from one location to another in 'buckets'. The size of the bucket is 10
kilobytes. Each bucket gets filled at the rate of 0.0001 kilobytes per millisecond. The
transmission time from sender to receiver is 10 milliseconds per bucket. After the receipt of
the bucket the receiver sends an acknowledgement that reaches sender in 100
milliseconds. Assuming no error during transmission, write a formula to calculate the time
taken in seconds to successfully complete the transfer of a file of size N kilobytes.

good days means --- 9 fishes so 53/9=4(remainder=17) if u assume 5 then there is no
chance for bad days.
fair days means ----- 7 fishes so remaining 17 --- 17/7=1(remainder=10) if u assume 2 then
there is no chance for bad days.
bad days means -------5 fishes so remaining 10---10/5=2days.
Ans: 4 good, 1 fair, 2bad. ==== total 7 days.

x+y+z=7--------- eq1
9*x+7*y+5*z=53 -------eq2
multiply eq 1 by 9,
9*x+9*y+9*z=35 -------------eq3
from eq2 and eq3
2*y+4*z=10-----eq4
since all x,y and z are integer i sud put a integer value of y such that z sud be integer in eq
4 .....and ther will be two value y=1 or 3 then z = 2 or 1 from eq 4
for first y=1,z=2 then from eq1 x= 4
so 9*4+1*7+2*5=53.... satisfied
now for second y=3 z=1 then from eq1 x=3
so 9*3+3*7+1*5=53 ......satisfied
so finally there are two solution of this question
(x,y,z)=(4,1,2) and (3,3,1)...
