Answer : 2. "13 days"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 13 days Explanation: Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13   Let Q takes x days to do the work Then, 10:13 :: 23:x => x = 23x13/10 => x = 299/10   P's 1 day's work = 1/23 Q's 1 day's work = 10/299 (P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13 Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.

Answer :
Explanation :

Let the two digits be x & y From given data in the question, we get x + y = 3(x - y) x + y = 3x - 3y => 2x = 4y x/y = 2/1 For having the 2:1, numbers satisfying are 12, 21, 24, 42, 36, 63, 48, 84 From this 36 is eleminated because it is a perfect square and no others are prime or perfect squares. Hence, there exists 7 such 2-digit numbers => 12, 21, 24, 42, 63, 48, 84.

Answer : 3. "668, 4023"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 668, 4023 Explanation: Let the smaller number be k.Then, larger number = (3355 + k)Therefore 3355 + k = (6k + 15)‹=› 5k = 3340‹=› k = 668. Therefore, the smaller number k = 668 and now the larger number = 3355+668 = 4023.
