Answer : 3. "3:2"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 3:2 Explanation: Let us assume S as number of shirts and T as number of trousersGiven that each trouser cost = Rs.70 and that of shirt = Rs.30Therefore, 70 T + 30 S = 810=> 7T + 3S = 81......(1)T = ( 81 - 3S )/7 We need to find the least value of S which will make (81 - 3S) divisible by 7 to get maximum value of TSimplifying by taking 3 as common factor i.e, 3(27-S) / 7In the above equation least value of S as 6 so that 27- 3S becomes divisible by 7 Hence T = (81-3xS)/7 = (81-3x6)/7 = 63/7 = 9 Hence for S, put T in eq(1), we getS = 81-7(9)/3 = 81-63 / 3 = 18/3 = 6.The ratio of T:S = 9:6 = 3:2.

Answer : 4. "64 days"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 64 days Explanation: (P+Q)'s 1 day work = 1/24 P's 1 day work = 1/32 => Q's 1 day work = 1/24 - 1/32 = 1/96 Work done by (P+Q) in 8 days = 8/24 = 1/3 Remainining work = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3 Time taken by Q to complete the remaining work = 2/3 x 96 = 64 days.

Answer : 3. "175"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 175 Explanation: Given that, working days = 5 working hours = 8 A man get rupess per hour is Rs.2.40 So in one day the man get total rupees is 2.40 x 8 = 19.2 So in 5 days week the man get total rupees is 19.2 x 5 = 96 So in 4 week the man get total rupees is 96 x 4 = 384 So the man worked for = 160hours in 4 weeks But given that the man earned Rs.432 Hence remaning money is (432-384 = 48)which is earn by doing overtime work Overtime hours = 48/3.20 = 15 So total worked hours is = 15 + 160 = 175.

Answer :
Explanation :
The shadow zone is the area of the earth from angular distances of 104 to 140 degrees from a given earthquake that does not receive any direct P waves. The shadow zone results from S waves being stopped entirely by the liquid core and P waves being bent (refracted) by the liquid core. There are two types of Shadow zones: one for P waves and one for S waves. P wave shadows between 104-140 degree, both sides; S wave shadow from 105 of one side to 105 of the other.
