A tyre has two punctures. The first puncture alone would have made the tyre flat in 9 minutes and the second alone would have done it in 6 minutes. If the air leaks out at a constant rate, then how long does it take, in minutes, for both the punctures together to make it flat?

a) 1 1/2
b) 3 1/2
c) 3 3/5
d) 4 1/4



Answer
Solution
Correct Answer Is : 3 3/5
Solution Is : (A) In one minute, (1/9) + (1/6) = 15/24 = 5/18 of the tyre becomes flat. Therefore, the complete tyre will be flat in 18/5 = 3 3/5 minutes.
The fluid contained in a bucket can fill four " large " bottles or seven " small " bottles. A full large table is used to fill an empty small bottle. What fraction of the fluid is left over in the large bottle when the small one is full?

a) 2/7
b) 4/7
c) 3/7
d) 5/7



Answer
Solution

Two trains start at the same time from A and B and proceed toward each other at the speed of 75 km/h and 50 km/h, respectively. When both meet at a point in between, one train found to be travelled 175 km more than the other. Find the distance between A and B.

a) 785
b) 875
c) 857
d) 758



Answer
Solution
Correct Answer Is : 875
Solution Is : According to the condition, = X/50=X+175/75
Where, x is the distance of the train which has speed is 50 km
75X=50X+50 x 175,25X =5870 ,x=350 ,Distance Between A and B is X +(X+175)=350+(350+175)=875

A candidate who gets 20% marks in an examination, fails by 30 marks. But if he gets 32 5 marks, he gets 42 marks more than the minimum pass marks. Find the pass percentage of marks:

a) 20%
b) 52%
c) 42%
d) 25%



Answer
Solution
Correct Answer Is : 25%
Solution Is : By condition 20% of x ? 30= 32% of x ? 42 - 20)%of x= 42 + 30 = 72
12% of x = 72
100% of x = 72 X 100 /12=600 ,Pass marks = 20% of 600 + 30 = (600 x 20)/100 + 30
= 120 +30= (150x100)/600
Per cent pass marks = 25%

Theaverage expenditure of a man for the first five months is Rs. 1200 and for the next seven months is Rs. 1300. If he saves Rs. 2900 in that year, his monthly average income is

a) Rs. 1700
b) Rs. 1600
c) Rs. 1400
d) Rs. 1500



Answer
Solution
Correct Answer Is : Rs. 1500
Solution Is : Average expenses of first 5 months = 1200
Average expenses of next 7 months = 1300
Saving of twetve months 2900
So, the total expenses of first 5 months = 6000
and total expenses of next 7 months = 9100
Sum of tweLve months= 15100
Saving of twelve months = 2900
Therefore, the total income of twelve months = 15100+ 2900
= 18000
Hence. the monthly income of a man = 12 = 1500

1O8%of x X C + 118%of(1 000 -x) X C=114%of 1000 X C , 4000C=10 X C ,X=4000/10
Hence, required cuantity = 400kg
