Answer : 4. "6 hrs 28 min"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 6 hrs 28 min Explanation: Time taken to cover 600 km = 600/100 = 6 hrs. Number of stoppages = 600/75 - 1 = 7 Total time of stoppages = 4 x 7 = 28 min Hence, total time taken = 6 hrs 28 min.

Answer : 2. "50 gm"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 50 gm Explanation: Initial quantity of copper =80100 x 50 = 40 g And that of Bronze = 50 - 40 = 10 g Let 'p' gm of copper is added to the mixture => 50 + p x 90100 = 40 + p => 45 + 0.9p = 40 + p => p = 50 g Hence, 50 gms of copper is added to the mixture, so that the copper is increased to 90%.

Answer : 1. "225 deg"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 225 deg Explanation: Angle of triangle = 180 × 3/12 = 45 deg Other angles of the triangle are = 60 deg, 75 deg Angle of quadrilateral = 360 - (45 + 60 + 75) = 180 deg Therefore, the four angles of the quadrilateral are 45, 60, 75 & 180 degrees. Hence, the sum of largest and smallest angle of the quadrilateral are 180 + 45 = 225 deg.
