Answer : 3. "41 sec"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 41 sec Explanation: Speed = 44 kmph x 5/18 = 110/9 m/s We know that, Time = distance/speed Time = (360 + 140) / (110/9) = 500 x 9/110 = 41 sec.

Answer : 3. "12%"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 12% Explanation: Let the interest rate be r% We know that, S.I = PTR/100 => (1540 x 5 x r)/100  +  (1800 x 4 x r)/100 = 1788 => r = 178800/14900 = 12%

Answer : 2. "100"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 100 Explanation: Let the Efficiency of pavan be E(P) Let the Efficiency of sravan be E(S) Here Work W = LCM(25,20) = 100 Now, E(P+2S) = 100/25 = 4 ....(1) E(2P+S) = 100/20 = 5 ....(2) Hence, from (1) & (2) we get E(S) = 1 => Number of days Savan alone work to complete the work  = 100/1 = 100 days.

Answer : 4. "7:3"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 7:3 Explanation: Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel A is 4 : 1   Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel B is 3 : 2   Ratio of only milk in vessel A = 4 : 5   Ratio of only milk in vessel B = 3 : 5   Let 'x' be the quantity of milk in vessel C   Now as equal quantities are taken out from both vessels A & B   => 4/5     :     3/5               x   3/5-x          x - 4/5   => 35-xx-45 = 11 (equal quantities)   => x = 7/10   Therefore, quantity of milk in vessel C  = 7   => Water quantity = 10 - 7 = 3   Hence the ratio of milk & water in vessel 3 is 7 : 3
