Answer : 3. "9"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 9 Explanation: The mother completes the job in x hours.So, the daughter will take 2x hours to complete the same job. In an hour, the mother will complete 1/x of the total job.In an hour, the daughter will complete 1/2x of the total job. So, if the mother and daughter work together, in an hour they will complete 1/x + 1/2x of the job.i.e., in an hour they will complete 3/2x of the job. The question states that they complete the entire task in 6 hours if they work together.i.e., they complete 1/6 th of the task in an hour. Equating the two information, we get 3/2x = 1/6By solving for x, we get 2x = 18 or x = 9. The mother takes 9 hours to complete the job.

Answer : 3. "0.375"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 0.375 Explanation: Expressing 3/8 as a decimal fraction: We can convert 3/8 into a decimal fraction by just dividing 3 by 8 or making 3 into 8 parts. Then, it is 3/8 = 0.375 as a decimal fraction. Other Method:: 3/8 as a Decimal : In this we should convert the denominator into 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000,... to make it simple. Now to make 8 into 1000, we multiply numerator and denominator with 125 => (3 x 125)/(8 x 125) = 375/1000 = 0.375.

Answer : 1. "1:7"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 1:7 Explanation: Let the speed of the trains be x and y respectively length of train1 = 47xlength of train2 = 31yRelative speed= x + yTime taken to cross each other = 33 s=> 47x+31yx+y= 33=> (47x + 31 y) = 33(x + y)=> 14x = 2y=> x/y = 2/14 = 1/7 = 1:7

Answer : 2. "24"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 24 Explanation: Sum of Interior angle is 180 .and it is given that interior angle is 150 more than exterior,so let exterior angle is x then interior will be x+150 now , interior + exterior =180x+150+x=180x=15 now , number of sides of polygon = 360 / exterior anglen = 360 / 15n = 24

Answer : 4. "3 hrs 45 min"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 3 hrs 45 min Explanation: Time taken by one tap to fill half of the tank = 3 hrs. Part filled by the taps in 1 hour = 4 x 1/6 = 2/3 Remaining part = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2 2/3 : 1/2 :: 1 : p p = 1/2 x 1 x 3/2 = 3/4 hrs. i.e., 45 min So, total time taken = 3 hrs 45 min.
