A 300 metre long train crosses a platform in 39 seconds while it crosses a signal pole in 18 seconds. What is the length of the platform?

A.320 mB.350 m

C.650 mD.Data inadequate

Answer:OptionBExplanation:Speed =300m/sec =50m/sec.

183

Let the length of the platform bexmetres.Then,x+ 300=50

393

3(x+ 300) = 1950x= 350 m.

A, B and C can do a piece of work in 20, 30 and 60 days respectively. In how many days can A do the work if he is assisted by B and C on every third day?

A.12 daysB.15 days

C.16 daysD.18 days

Answer:OptionBExplanation:A's 2 day's work =1x 2=1.

2010

(A + B + C)'s 1 day's work =1+1+1=6=1.

2030606010

Work done in 3 days =1+1=1.

10105

Now,1work is done in 3 days.

5

Whole work will be done in (3 x 5) = 15 days.

Twenty women can do a work in sixteen days. Sixteen men can complete the same work in fifteen days. What is the ratio between the capacity of a man and a woman?

A.3 : 4B.4 : 3

C.5 : 3D.Data inadequate

Answer:OptionBExplanation:(20 x 16) women can complete the work in 1 day.1 woman's 1 day's work =1.

320

(16 x 15) men can complete the work in 1 day.1 man's 1 day's work =1

240

So, required ratio=1:1

240320

=1:1

= 4 : 3 (cross multiplied)

39 persons can repair a road in 12 days, working 5 hours a day. In how many days will 30 persons, working 6 hours a day, complete the work?

A.10B.13

C.14D.15

Answer:OptionBExplanation:Let the required number of days bex.Less persons, More days (Indirect Proportion)More working hours per day, Less days (Indirect Proportion)Persons30:39::12 :x

Working hours/day6:5

30 x 6 xx= 39 x 5 x 12x=(39 x 5 x 12)

(30 x 6)

x= 13.

On dividing a number by 357, we get 39 as remainder. On dividing the same number 17, what will be the remainder ?

A.0B.3

C.5D.11

Answer:OptionCExplanation:Letxbe the number andybe the quotient. Then,x= 357 xy+ 39= (17 x 21 xy) + (17 x 2) + 5= 17 x (21y+ 2) + 5)Required remainder = 5.

Salaries of Ravi and Sumit are in the ratio 2 : 3. If the salary of each is increased by Rs. 4000, the new ratio becomes 40 : 57. What is Sumit's salary?

A.Rs. 17,000B.Rs. 20,000

C.Rs. 25,500D.Rs. 38,000

Answer:OptionDExplanation:Let the original salaries of Ravi and Sumit be Rs. 2xand Rs. 3xrespectively.Then,2x+ 4000=40

3x+ 400057

57(2x+ 4000) = 40(3x+ 4000)6x= 68,0003x= 34,000Sumit's present salary = (3x+ 4000) = Rs.(34000 + 4000) = Rs. 38,000.

The sum of three numbers is 98. If the ratio of the first to second is 2 :3 and that of the second to the third is 5 : 8, then the second number is:

A.20B.30

C.48D.58

Answer:OptionBExplanation:Let the three parts be A, B, C. Then,A : B = 2 : 3 and B : C = 5 : 8 =5 x3:8 x3= 3 :24

555

A : B : C = 2 : 3 :24= 10 : 15 : 24

5

B =98 x15= 30.
