Answer : 3. "18th"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 18th Explanation: Number of persons between Amrita and Mukul = 50 - (10 + 25) = 15. Since Mamta lies in middle of these 15 persons, so Mamta`s position is 8th from Amrita i.e. 18th from the front.

Answer : 4. "10 : 23 : 20 PM"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 10 : 23 : 20 PM Explanation: The watch gains 5 seconds in 3 minutes = 100 seconds in 1 hour. From 8 AM to 10 PM on the same day, time passed is 14 hours. In 14 hours, the watch would have gained 1400 seconds or 23 minutes 20 seconds. So, when the correct time is 10 PM, the watch would show 10 : 23 : 20 PM
Q: A man spend Rs. 810 in buying trouser at Rs. 70 each and shirt at Rs. 30 each. What will be the ratio of trouser and shirt when the maximum number of trouser is purchased ? 3277 05b5cc731e4d2b4197774f7b5

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 : 1. "127.5 m"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 127.5 m Explanation: When A runs 1000 m, B runs 900 m and when B runs 800 m, C runs 700 m. When B runs 900 m, distance that C runs = (900 x 700)/800 = 6300/8 = 787.5 m. In a race of 1000 m, A beats C by (1000 - 787.5) = 212.5 m to C. In a race of 600 m, the number of meters by which A beats C = (600 x 212.5)/1000 = 127.5 m.
