Answer : 2. "37.33 sec"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 37.33 sec Explanation: Speed = 108 km/hrenter a tunnel,, means that the train covers a distance equal to its own lengthso (108 x 5/18) = x/4 where x= length of trainhence x = 120 mtrsto pass completely train has to travel a distance = (x + tunnel length) that is 1120 mtrs.so (1120/t) = (108x5/18)t = 37.33 sec

Answer : 1. "9 3/5 days"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 9 3/5 days Explanation: Let the total work be 'W' As per the given information, P can complete the work 'W' in 24 days. => one day work of P = W/24 And also given that, The time taken by P to complete one-third of work is equal to time taken by Q to complete half of the work => PW/3 = QW/2 => P's 1 day =    W/24    ?    =      W/3 =>  ?  = 24W/3W  = 8 => QW/2 = 8 days => Q alone can complete the work W in 16 days => P + Q can complete the work in 1/24 + 1/16 = 5/48 => 48/5 days = 9 3/5 days.

Answer : 2. "1/8"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 1/8 Explanation: 125 over 1000 in Simplest Form means 1251000 in its simple fraction form.   Now, to get the simplest form of 125/1000, find the HCF or GCD of both numerator and denominator i.e, 125 and 1000.   HCF of 125, 1000 = 125   Then, divide both numerator and denominator by 125 i.e, 1251251000125 = 18   Hence, 18 is the simplest form of 125 over 1000.

Answer : 1. "8640"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 8640 Explanation: Let the 6 digits of the required 6 digit number be abcdef Then, the number to be odd number the last digit must be odd digit i.e 3, 5, 7 or 9 The first digit cannot be ‘0’ => possible digits = 3, 5, 7, 2, 6, 8 Remaining 4 places can be of 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 ways This can be easily understood by Therefore, required number of ways = 6 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 4 = 36 x 20 x 12 = 720 x 12 = 8640 ways.

Answer : 1. "90%"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 90% Explanation: Let length, breadth and height of the room be 7, 3, 1 unit respectively. Area of walls = 2(l+b)xh = 2(7+3)x1 = 20 sq. unit. Now, length, breadth and height of room will become 3.5, 6 and 2 respectively.  Area of walls = 2(l+b)xh = 2(3.5+6)x2 = 38 sq. unit.  % Increase in the area of walls = (38-20)x100/20 = 90%.
