SI=(P*R*T)/100 Similarly For A (5000*6*1)/100=300 For B (6000*5*1)/100=300 300:300 The ratio of their profits will be 1:1

6)IN a 100M RACE A RUNS 8 KM/hr.IF A GIVE B A START OF 4m AND STILL HIM BY 15 SEC.CALCULATE SPEED OF B? ANSWER

A gives B a start of 4m.. so, A runs 100m and B runs 96m to complete the race.. so, the time taken by A to complete race is 100/(8*5/18)=45sec Given, A beats B by 15sec.. so, B took (45+15)=60sec to complete race... so, the speed of B is (96/60)*(18/5)=5.76km/hr

7) In game of 500 points there are three participants A, B, and C. A game take place. A gives to B 80 points and to C 101 points. Then how many points can B give to C
A) In the game of 500 points, A gives B 80 points that means B got (500-80)=420 A gives B 101 points that means B got (500-101)=399 so, B:C=420:399 so, in the game of 420, B gives "21" (420-399) points to C.. so, in the game of 500, B gives to C as 500*21/420=25 points...

ANSWER: product of means=product of extreams.. so, 27*x=47*32 x=47*32/27 x=55.7 10) What is the next number of the following sequence 2, 1, 4, 3, 6, 6, 8, 10, 10, ?, ? there are two series (2,4,6,8,10, ) & (1,3,6,10, ) in 1st series next term is 2 more than previous so (2,4,6,8,10,12 ) in 2nd series next term is 10+5=15 so next two term 15,12 11) Some men can do a work in 10 days. with 10 less than original no of men it takes 10 more days to complete the work. what is the original no of men? A) let the no. of men be x x men can do in 10 days,so one man can do in 10*x days now (x-10) men can do in (10+10=20 days),so one man can do in 20*(x-10)days 10x=20(x-10) or x=2x-20 or x=20 men 12) Karthikeyan arranged a party to celebrate his birth day.20 of his close friends were invited. One friend left before the cake was cut due to an urgent phone call.The big cake was drawing the attention of the party visitors. This cake

is to be divided among friends and of course Karthikeyan will get his share. A man eats 3 pieces, a woman eats two pieces and a child eats half a piece of cake. Including Karthikeyan count the number of men,women and children in the party. There are 20 pieces of cake in all. Option a) 6 women, 2 men and 12 children b) 7 women, 1 men and 12 children c) 5 women, 1 men and 14 children d) 4 women, 2 men and 14 children ANSWER 5 women, 1 men and 14 children No. of people who ate the cake = 19(of his frnds)+1(Karthikeyan) = 20 Out of these,let there be x men,y women and z children. The x+y+z = 20......(1) total no. of cake pieces = 3x+2y+z/2 = 20 Muliplying the above equation by 2, 6x+4y+z = 40......(2) Subtracing the equation (1) from equation (2), 5x+3y = 20. From the given options,if there are x men y women,only option C satisfies. And no. of children = 20 -(x+y) = 20 - 6 =14....which is true in opion C. 13)Hemamalini was enjoying her vacation at her Cousin's home. In the mornings, she used to go for a jogging with her cousin. The evenings were spent on tennis court in nearly sports club.

A) the difference b/w t numbers are 3,9,27,81,243,.. so the next difference would be 729. adding 729 to 351, we get 1080. ANS: 1080 17) In simple interest what sum amounts of Rs.1120/-in 4 years and Rs.1200/-in 5 years ? Option (a) Rs. 500 (b) Rs. 600 (c) Rs. 800 (d) Rs. 900 ANSWER

For 1 year interest= 1200-1120=80 for 4 year 320 then sum= 1120-320=800 18) If y = x +2, Find the range of real values of y satisfying the inequalities 16x - 6 > 42 and 7x - 24 < 60" Option a) 5 < y < 14 b) 3 < y < 12 c) 1 < y < 10 d) y < 10 ANSWER 16x 6 > 42 => 16x >48 => x>3 ...(1) And 7x 24 < 60 = > 7x x 3 and y - 2 5 or y < 14 Combining the above range, we get, 5 < y < 14 19) Krishnakumar, Raghunandan, Chinnan and Aibak had an interesting discussion on the following: Find the range of real values of x not satisfying even one of the inequalities 6x - 8 > 40 and 9x - 19 > 80" Option a) x greater than 8 b) x lesser than or equal to 8 c) x lesser to 8 d) x greater than or equal to 8 ANSWER: 6x 8 > 40 => 6x >48 => x > 8 ...(1) And 9x 19 > 80 = > 9x >99 => x >11 ...(2) For both the inequalities to hold true, x should be greater than 11, and for values of x greater than 8, at least the first inequality (1) will be satisfied. For x not to satisfy both the inequalities, it has to be equal to or lesser than 8. Therefore, our answer is x lesser than or equal to 8 20) Arun Kumar, Chennakesavan , Raghu and Krishnan always have discussions on various issues such as politics, international affairs, current affairs, studies etc. Once Raghu posed the following query to other group members:

Find the range of real values of x satisfying the inequalities 4x - 5 > 7 and 5x - 14 > 16" Option a) x > 3 b) x > 6 c) x < 3 d) x < 6 ANSWER 4x - 5 > 7 => 4x > 12 => x > 3 ...(1) and 5x - 14 > 16 => 5x >30 => x > 6 ...(2) Since 6 is greater than 3, for both inequalities namely (1) and (2) to be satisfied, x should be greater than 6 or x > 6. 21) A famous film director thought of an interesting story and he made a film in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. He release the movie at the same time in all the three languages. The movie had Dhanush, Kamalhasan, Sruthi Hasan and Akdhsay Bachchan in lead role. The collections made was interesting to study.

Option a) Rs.60246894 b) Rs.26024689 c) Rs.22602468 d) none of these. ANSWER According to given condition Hindi : Tamil = 5:4 Tamil : Telugu = 5:4 Hindi =(5/4)Tamil Telugu =(4/5)Tamil Hindi : Tamil : Telugu = (5/4)Tamil : Tamil : (4/5)Tamil = (5/4) : 1 : (4/5) On Multiplying with "4 and 5",we get

= 25 : 20 :16 Given 20x = 19753080 x = 987654 So, The Total Collection is 61x = 61 x 987654 = Rs.60246894 22) Three cricket players -- Ramesh, Suresh and Ganesh play for three different cricket Teams Haryana, Delhi and Rajasthan respectively.

One jug has a content of 3 liters and the other one has a content of 5 liters. How can you get just 4 liters

of water using only these two jugs? ANSWER 1. First fill 5 liter jug. 2. Pour from 5 liter jug to 3 liter jug. Now 5 liter jug will have 2 liters. 3 liter jug will have 3 liters. 3. Pour the water in 3 liter jug back into well. Now 3 liter jug is empty. 5 liter jug will have same 2 liters. 3. Pour remaining 2 liters from 5 liter jug into 3 liter jug. Now 3 liter jug will have 2 liters. 5 liter jug is empty. 4. Fill again 5 liter jug. 5. Pour from 5 liter jug into 3 liter jug. Already 3 liter jug has 2 liters. Now it can hold 1 more liter. So 5 liter jug now have only 4 liters. 32) Ravi has bought ten trees for her garden. He wants to plant these trees in five rows, with four trees in each row. How must Ravi plant the trees?

Then each doors will face north pole. 34) These words follow a logical progression: CODIFY LAMINA STOVE RESET

JOKUL QUIRES Which one of these comes next? REST, GRAIL, STOIC, ORDEAL ANSWER Ans should be REST. Because 1st letter is C_D___ , next letter is L_M___, as we can see it is following alphabetical sequence i.e C and D, L and M. Then similarly for R_S__ and J_K__. And we can see that after two letters words STOVE and QUIRES have have no alphabet in between as ST___ and QU___. Hence acc. to this pattern next letter should be such with an alphabet in between i.e R_S_, so ans will be REST 35) 4,18,100,294,? 4=2*2*2-2*2 18=3*3*3-3*3 100=5*5*5-5*5 294=7*7*7-7*7 next term is 11*11*11-11*11=1210 coz 2,3,5,7,11 all are prime no.s series 36) If a=2/3b , b=2/3c, and c=2/3d what part of d is b/ (a) 8/27 (b) 4/9 (c) 2/3 (d) 75% (e) 4/3 A) b=2/3c = (2/3)*(1/c) = (2/3)*(3d/2) = d .

A) Let,the shape of the bracelet is closed circle.[It is supposed to assume] gold chain with 5 links: A_ _ _ _ _B gold chain with 4 links: C_ _ _ _D gold chain with 3 links: E_ _ _F gold chain with 3 links: G_ _ _H We,generally hold a common notion that since there are 4 gold chains and since we are to make a closed circular shaped bracelet, so,we have to join the ends namely :(B,C),(D,E),(F,G),(H,A),i.e, total 4 links have to be broken and further joined,i.e, total cost will then be 4(1+.50)= 6 rupees. But,now we will tackle the problem in a different way. Let, all the 3 links of GH chain are broken. Then, with the help of 1st broken link, B and C ends are joined.

with the help of 2nd broken link, D and E ends are joined. and, With the help of the remaining broken link, F and A ends are joined. So, the above mentioned method explains us that breaking only 3 links and subsequently joining two free ends with each link facilitates us to make a whole closed circular shaped bracelet. Therefore,the cost in this case : 3*(1+.50) = 3*(1.50)=4.50 rupees; So,evidently,the least cost to make the whole bracelet :4.50 rupee 43) hon works for 60 days. for the day he is present he is paid 7.00/- and for the day he is absent he is paid 3.00/- per day. if he is paid 170/-.how many days he is present.
